I was in Cedar Point Sunday and Monday, and on Monday I noticed a trailer inside Area 51, the corner closest to the Magnum gate. I apologize if it's been mentioned before, but I didn't notice it the day before. Just giving everybody the heads up.

I noticed that too MillenniumRider...I was at the park on Monday and you can definatly see a construction trailer sticking up over the top of the wall...I'm not sure if it has been there awhile because I hadn't been to the point since July 4th...I could see over the wall a little better while riding the Monster and you can see the construction trailer better as well...Even though there really isn't too much to see anyways behind that wall...I didn't see too much activity going on back there...Maybe it was because it rained until noon and I rode the monster earlier while it was raining...

I was there 2 weeks ago, and it wasn't there, but this is interesting! I hope this means an announcement soon!

That trailer definitely wasn't there on Sunday.

Its like a James Bond movie. We have to penatrate the trailer by force, stealing the top secret plans. In the end we get the plans, and the babes. ;)

Ok, on a more serious note, I really hope this means more construction, or maybe even an announcement sometime soon.

EDIT: You know now screamscape is going to put this into their lil update section.

Raptor, Now that you said that, you know someone like Mr.Bean will be stupid enough to try to do something like that! Or at least attempt to make fake pictures or something!!

Anyone snap a pic of this thing? What's it say on the side? Cause I know last year that Focht did all the excavation, and poured the footers for WT.

OK, no one should take the advice of breaking in. However just on a curious note, who would even notice? Well anyway, would it really be worth getting ejected from the park? Any particular construction company's logo attached to the side of this thing?

Well on Sunday I stood on the fence post right next to the wall so I could take pictures, and they sure noticed that. But I still got 3 pictures before they noticed and yelled at me.

Hmm... could it mean that it is something big if they yelled at you for taking pictures?

Also, is the trailer orange? If it is, it may be a Hapag N' Lloyd container.

But did they yell at you for taking pictures ... or for standing on a fence post?

It was a run-of-the-mill beige construction trailer. There was a sign high up on the shorter side that I could barely read (err, I need new perscription glasses already). When I told my friend to read it, he said it said "CAUTION" at the top. My wild guess is that it said "CAUTION: Vehicle makes wide turns"...

He yelled, "Buddy get off the fence!" So I guess it was for standing on the fence post.

Someone told me the trailer said TOGO on the side. Maybe CP is getting Windjammer to up their coaster count to 17! ;oD

I can tell you one thing for sure, construction doesn't officially start untill you see a porta-potty. Bank on that!

I totally agree, Ride. Construction workers don't usually pee on bushes.

The closest I'll ever get to riding a B&M Flyer is looking down while on Raptor... :(

All that I have to say is that on Saturday I was at the park and I rode Gemini and all that I saw in "51" were some really really tall weeds.
