RE: Verbolten

Amazing progress from the last pix I saw. Steel roof and wall structure are up - you can still see the inside track, but not for much longer. Also saw the track that approaches the event building. Drop track section was actually at the bottom section, so you could really see how the drop is gonna look.

Everything looks so much bigger in person. Hope to have a few pix to upload.

gosh i am still trying in my mind to visualize the size of that building compared to the puny machines on the ground..... but I just can't!

Trust me - I have been following the construction on here, and the event building/area seems small in all pix I saw. After seeing it today, IT IS NOT!
 
RE: Verbolten

Correct... I got a few pics from over the fence... I will have to post them tomorrow because of some computer issues that will not be taken care of until tomorrow... They are really good though
 
RE: Verbolten

Hi, this is my first post even though I've been following this thread for a long time now. And while I don't live near BGW, I've been once and it's my second favorite park. The reason why I registered is because there is a chance that I will get to ride Verbolten this summer, and I've been looking forward to it for a long time.

About the ride itself, I think it will blend in quite nicely the way I envision it. I see this as being a pretty intense family ride, and I can't wait to ride it. Looking forward tomore pictures! :)
 
RE: Verbolten

Got the problem fixed... Here they are! I included a picture of the QR code if anyone needs it

so was no work done over by the bridge?
Click to expand...

looks like they are doing a lot of work with the footers over there. Almost looks to me like they only plan on using a couple of those BBW footers if any at all.
 
RE: Verbolten

Those green supports dont look half bad with the tone of grey in the track. I mean, it isn't really an eye sore.
Anyways, i cant wait to see the finished outcome of the bridge
 
RE: Verbolten

Just posted my photo update to the main site. If you don't want to look through them all, I linked the three most important ones in the text of the post. There are 3 (!) panorama shots in this update.

PS: If I remember, I'll go back and convert it over to the fancy gallery format in the morning. (Someone please PM me if I don't remember)

RE: Verbolten

On the subject of the bridge: Do we know if it will have any special effects or not? I know it will be themed to look old and worn out but will there be any animatronics or anything? Like collapsing wood or stuff of that nature? And is there an MCBR in there?
