First Turn Around Question

Was at CP yesterday (8/29) and noticed what looked like a thin cable or something hanging from the apex of the first turn around on MF. Could see exactly where it was attached and where it was going to. Possibly a sensor to analyze forces?? Anyone know what it is? My apologies if this was covered somewhere else.

Maybe a hanging HalloWeekends prop to be???

that's actually a really good spot to hang something really big

My guess is as good as yours but with HalloWeekends coming up I would bet its decoration.

I CAN'T WAIT FOR HALLOWEEKENDS!

could be a ground wire if the coaster got hit by ligtning.

No, it's just a cable or rope left by the guys who climb up there to paint and/or inspect track.

Yeah, cause I was gonna say...there was a cable hanging from the third hill in July, and I highly doubt it was for a Halloweekends prop.

It would be pretty neat if Cedar Point did something with it's coasters for Halloweekends (similar to SFMM).

Wow! They have to climb ropes too?

Cedar Point skilled trades.

Actually.. it is a cable... if you go back behind the petting zoo you can see the car attached to the end of the cable. It's all electric..

Anyone else going Monday???
