Well. I will be leaving for the park in under 15 hours from now to be there for when it open.. say gang what time do they open the parking lot ?


I feel a lot better about my chances riding it with them guys from Intamin there. They can hop on any of their stuff that may break during my visit :)

Did I mention how Paramount Canada's Wonderland sucks yet ?!?

Anyone wanna lay odds on a Sunday or Monday Opening ? Who knows.. today would be great if they could get it open at all.

How many people are usually at the doors of the park when they open their doors ?

Not a good sign here, but the line for TTD just got a lot shorter in about 5 mins. And I don't think there has been more then 1 train launched.

Well.. I have seen what looks to be the green train waiting just outside of the station in the foreground for the last 3 or so mins.. it ain't moving.. and forwhatever technical reason now.. they ain't launching.

:(

Man, they were pushing them through with no problems without people on them. Now that it is open it just stops like it's stunned or something... How frustrating.

It might just be a waste of time for those people standing in line there. I know it was a waste for me, yesterday, waiting for almost 2 hours, and it did not open. I saw a lot of disappointed faces yesterday. Who knows, hopefully for those people it does open.

I was watching the Cleveland.com video cam about 2 minutes ago and I clearly saw a train come down the top hat.

Just noticed something odd.. Even though I was on the TTD cam, I just noticed a couple mins ago that it had not refreshed in almost 40 mins for some reason. I still see that green train though... but the lines seem to be back as well.
