It's also conceivable that BGW will run with a more generic name (e.g. a 'Maximus'), and appropriate the story of Hercules as the ride's quest.
I'm still hanging with a winged, Mercury being the theme of the train regardless of coaster name.

I mean it like this, everyone knows Hercules. Since I doubt there is going to be much theming to the coaster, I wouldn't expect he would be used in any major way besides as a mascot. With that assumption, we already have a coaster with a generic Roman beefy dude (Apollo) in the same section of the park. Roman mythology is filled with all sorts of interesting heros, monsters, gods, ECT. I think it would be a missed opportunity to just pick some strong dude who happens to be the most well known.
The auto aficionados may recall the Mercury hood ornaments; something of that sort would be really classy on the train.

Let's just go "full Verbolten" and park an old Mercury Cougar by the bridge! ?
The name better not be that long
Hercules is Roman wtf are you talking about?
That wouldn't delay me in crossing the bridge. A model from the 1940's on the other hand...
In the end does it really matter that much? Or is there a rule no one knows of?
It’s a tagline to a coaster name. Not like people won’t ride it because of the name.
Lemme guess: Volcano the Blast Coaster and Backlot Stunt Coaster are way too long too?
Hercules' Mythological Diety Chariot Adventure confirmed.
The design team working with 1 centimeter of space on the park map and mobile app just quit.
How about reading all the posts before jumping in with a comment as that had already been dealt with.
I'm not sure I'm ready to ride something named after a character that has a mulligan. mullet. ?
Corrected because I'm old and dumb.

Am I the only one who thinks we have gone from too many construction train videos.....to too few construction train videos?

Here you go, from yesterday. They have been doing most of their work in the exact area not visible from the train or boat though...

That'd be cool if the ride was themed on Aeneas and his voyage from Troy to Italy before the founding of Rome.
