That would be a very strange and dumb location to put a 220 ft skyscreamer
I think the nearby soil sampling and how wide that was rules out a sky flyer. Never know though, till it's built.
The high point isn't really in a spot that I would think they would choose for a Starflyer
That is just a theory right now. Another possibility that I have seen thrown out is a connection of Drachen Fire's old maintenance building for use as a station for another coaster.
This is not confirmed. In fact I would say that to me it appears it will not use the DF station
I don’t see how they would fit another coaster in that area unless it’s like really small
September 6 isn’t even late. Hershey still haven’t even begun to tease their long awaited RMC.
That project is at least not opening until the spring at soonest.
This is opening in the winter based on reports.
September 6 is the announcement for Project 2023, and not Project 2024, correct? I would assume we would know a name for Project 2024 sometime in the Fall of 2023.
Spire's footprint is all the opposite direction if the are building the other one towards the boneyard and Rhine. Station wise its tight and close but layout wise there is still a decent amount of room to work with.
Not necessarily BGW has been much more closed lips lately.
There is a lot of area on the other side of DF where the boneyard is, BGW could effectively double the size of the park if they built on all the land they own on that side.
If they did that another transport method, or extension of the railroad, would be needed
It would seem like a second park (really third with WC) would make more sense in that scenario. Honestly with all the new investments being made, I’m not sure why they aren’t going that direction.
I'm not disagreeing with it, there definitely some options/things to considered. I was just trying to utilize it to sure that there's reallya give amount of space for multiple coasters to be built back there
The next guess would actually be something like steel curtain because that drop resembles Drachen fire’s.
So, we have literally nothing but a max height location, and soil testing in the boneyard. What signs exactly are pointing to an RMC hybrid?
Nothing REALLY, but I would say that the 220' height we know at least points to it not being Drachen Spire (or a slight reworking of Drachen Spire) and does line up with the (admittedly old/outdated) trend of BGW building a slightly larger version of what BGT gets (Iron Gwazi is 206'). That's a bit of a stretch but I can see why people are running with it.
It’s not really a stretch when you think about what would be logical. It’s probably the most probable thing out of what they would build with a 220 ft height. The others are either redundant or would be way too out there
I think it is important to differentiate clearly between opinions and data. “All signs seem to point an RMC hybrid,” is not the same thing as “my best guess is.” Casual readers can easily be mislead by assertions without evidence being presented as facts.
Considering basically any major manufacturer can build a 220’ ride in their flavor or multiple flavors, any statement who it is would be rather speculative.
