Mystery Construction

Dont worry about it TTD 120mph im going to try and go on the boat ride when i go in 2 weeks. Plus there should be a blog by cp about it soon. We all hope.

^ - how would going on PWE make it easier to see something hiding under MF's first overbank?

Well, with enough momentum...

;)

Well i figured since im a good swimmer i would jump in to the pond swim to the island take a few pictures and have them come save me. Bad idea i no cuz that water is so dirty but it might work.

That would be even more difficult than using the boat.

Considering that the piece in question ISN'T ON THE ISLAND, swimming there, rowing there, hijacking the boat to get there won't do you any good.

I went to CP on Monday this week. I almost never ride the CC Mine Ride because I'm almost too tall, but I thought it'd be worth it to try to catch a glimpse of something. When the train got to the top of the first lift I looked down to the right and saw what looked like that metal barb bracing. The kind they use to support footers. There were stacks of it lying around on the ground. I can tell you it looked kind of rusty, so I'm not sure how old it is or even what it's for but it's worth a look if you're heading to the point anytime soon.

Maybe they're not building a ride but a path connecting the Frontier Trail to the Top Thrill Dragster Midway. In my opinion this would be a good idea.

IF it's rebar for footers or whatever, I wouldn't be surprised if it's rusty. Most rebar have a bit of a rusty look to them.

Ah, yes rebar. That's the name. I also saw some wooden beams that looked fairly new, but they very well could have been there for a while. The wooden beams were in the ground and looked like the start of a station platform, pathway bridge, tunnel, storage shed, something along those lines. Here are a couple of photos I took on Monday June, 30th. I was going to ride the Paddle Wheel boat again, but I just could'nt take the corny jokes a second time around. Sorry.

The wood posts are from Terror Island. They'll be covered again come fall.

That's right. Got it.

I'm still wondering what that rebar is for. Hmm.

Its for reinforcing concrete. Anything from a coaster footer to a sidewalk in front of Breakers.

Well if the rebar is in a cylindrical shape it wouldn't have much of a use reinforcing concrete in front of Breakers...;)

(and im not meaning the cylindrical shape the rebar already comes in :) )

Final Coaster: when you say that there were stacks of rebar lying on the ground, does that mean like bundles of it? Because if it is more than a couple bundles I would certainly say its for whatever is going on. :)

When I said stacks I meant, 3 good sized, flat stacked, 8x8 foot piles. The stacks were about 4 feet high.

What did they do with the bridges they used for Halloweekends?

The bridges are over by Mantis. They are still in the water behind the boat with "little squirt" and the lighthouse with 33% less fat than other houses.

Yeah, I've always thought that would be a good idea as well.

How bout a intamin plug in play woodie with/without a loop?? They need another woodie pretty badly. Although mean streak is wonderful to look at, it really isn't a good coaster unfortunately. Actually, you could place 2 coasters in mean streaks location....lol! Whatever it is, I'm sure it will be innovative so we'll have wait and see......

Has anyone noticed any flags around the island or the Cedar Mine ride?
