Attraction Millennium Force

Wonder what below-grade hardware was involved here.....
Probably something they bought off eBay, again.
I managed to find a picture from 2000 where they were already empty, so no clue!!! Wild guess, maybe that section of track was made to be removable for large equipment access? That's all I can think of.
Based on where it's located with a service road for the maintenance track on the other side of the station, not sure that theory works. But fascinating nonetheless.
I would guess that they had planned trims for that section and then removed them during testing.

Edit: And somehow someone screen recorded the full cycle from the webcam. It barely makes it over the first airtime hill!

Take this with a MASSIVE grain of salt. But there are now rumors flying all over that Millennium Force’s days are numbered. Which would be an absolutely mind boggling decision
And I don’t know about you. But I would be committing a hate crime if this was even remotely true.

Seems like it would be cheaper to redo the lift system, and even retrack the lift, then build a replacement. Taking MF out would have be a major brand hit to the park.
This is the latest from the guy who kind of started the rumor
I didn’t believe this one at all to begin with. The sheer scale of Millennium Force makes it a very difficult and expensive removal, and given the lines it still draws 25 years later, I don’t think there’s any reason to believe it’s in danger when there’s a much more obvious candidate for the chopping block right across from it.
So, wait. Who is this person and why should we believe him? What are his sources of information and track record?
Honestly nothing. But I said the same thing about Kingda Ka. At first it was Twitter nobody’s telling us. Then a few months later the bigger YouTubers came out to confirm it.
I personally think that cedar point would never get rid of Millie anytime soon, but I don’t wanna speak bad things into existence lol
I think Millie is arguably the most iconic coaster there is and like people have pointed out nobody is tired of riding it.
