Gatekeeper Test runs

The green train went off the track into the lake.

samosuband said:To anyone who has been watching the webcams, have you noticed (assuming they are into 2 train testing) if the trains are in fact different colors or all the coppery color of the train in all pictures I've seen?

The center fiberglass shells are all that same coppery color, but the seat backs are different colors on each train.


4 summers of employment in ride operations does stuff to you.

No trees were harmed in the sending of this message, but a large number of electrons were terribly inconvenienced.

I think the backs of the seats are different colors based on pictures and that ride attendant training skit. Anyway, I'm really, REALLY hoping that Gatekeeper gets those in line water fans. Those things are awesome!

I THINK this may be a footer for one of the fans but I'm not entirely sure.

Lemon Chill Guy says 500 footer within the decade!

Those seem to be the canopys that are going to cover the line. It will look similar to Windseeker's. I recently most new Cedar Fair coasters have gotten the water fans in the lines.

Not the white poles, the small concrete footer in the middle of the image. I don't know, we'll find out on opening day or through some photos that may come out soon. Unless someone else knows, hmmm... I wonder

There may be a few in line, but I'm sure the breeze from the lake will be enough on most days. Just hope they are on when we need them, and off when we don't. Getting tired that it's always the opposite.

Im sure on most days the breeze from the lake will be crucial lol

Did anyone see that cedar point got a vine and it has a couple cool videos on it.

The safer bet is that they're for lights (perhaps with fans mounted on them as well).

Looks like we have a rider or a dummy with arms and legs!

It's mass extensions of limbs to see if any fall off during the ride.

It's just Slenderman.

Hazaaaar! The webcams are back on CP.com

^ It's dark though so you won't be able to see much. Hope you saw the action earlier today. ;)

After reading Gatekeeper threads and things on here for ages, I finally decided to register and post... so yay me


On to Business...Who is that lucky person on the train... that picture is driving me crazy. Is it me or is the rest of that train they are on empty as well? As in no water dummies

it was a dummy. This one was to test limbs on a person and see if they survive.


Or it could be Tony doing the test....
