RE: Verbolten
I don't think it would be for the maintenance bay since it was 3-tube. If it were 2-tube like the part out of the station I might think it would be, but it was 3-tube like the building and Rhine drop, so there will probably be some deal of stress on it.
The odd thing was that it didn't look like it was banked that much, so I wonder where it is being used.

It has to be for one of the final track pieces after the s-curve after the drop. They still could be working on the footers there.

RE: Verbolten
1 of the comments on the YouTube video said that they had no idea that Verbolten was being built and when they went for Christmas town they said that they thought the event building was a storage garage for coaster parts... Once again the GP knows zip Zero! I give props to BGW though it takes genius marketers to remade 3 individual videos via QR code then release 3 videos combined once again via QR code and then release it again saying it's new when it's been avilable for months now...

RE: Verbolten
As bad as the marketing is, look on the bright side. There will probably be a pretty short line for Verbolten when it opens since most people aren't running to Oktoberfest to check out the new coaster. In other words, when we went to KD the year I-305 opened, we needed to be walked back there because everybody would be running there if we weren't escorted. Same with Griffon, we had to walk back there in a crowd. I doubt that will happen with Verbolten, which will probably result in shorter lines.

Lines or not, I've actually never been on a new roller coaster its opening week, but I'm going over Spring Break week, and I'm gonna ride it no matter what.

RE: Verbolten
But we have no reason to think that verbolten will open in may... We have not seen any major construction delays, 99% of the track is done, and I am sure almost everything is made and just waiting to be installed... Plus, I live half an hour away so whenever it opens, I will be ready
