Check out the new pictures.
Thanks Cedar Point for listening!
If you look on the transfer track picture, you can see the front car of the train.
Also "Send a Millennium Force Postcard" and you will see another picture.
The pic showing the foundations for the tunnels is awesome- sure we've been calling it the MAGNUM hill for awhile now, but this pic really puts it into perspective. ;)

Now that is Restaurant-Quality Lemonade!
Mad props to the Point for those photos...
How about the one looking through the loading station? Definitely don't waste any time to the top of the hill, do they?
Spring cannot get here fast enough...
Make sure you take a look at the postcard picture – it shows the last turn before the unloading station. That turn looks a lot more intense in real life then on the layout drawing. On a previous thread some people where saying how the ending looked a little boring – but the quick left turn followed by the over-banked right turn looks like a lot of fun to me.
Ugh... this is getting unbearable. I can't wait any longer!
The photos still don't do it any justice...

I must be dumb, where are you guys seeing the new photos at besides that one postcard photo?

Try hitting "refresh" on your browser on the webpage that Beeman mentioned above.
I'm running Microsoft Internet Explorer and had to do this in order to see them.
Y'know - make sure you check out the postcard as well...I have a feeling the doubters wondering about the end of the ride are going to be eating crow in a couple of months!!! :)

There are three new photos. Look under "construction" and look for the new construction photos. I wonder if some of you who are not seeing the new photos are looking at pages held in AOL's cache, in which case it will eventually update...

Man, that last turn is wicked!
On the postcard there is a CAR in the brake run.

-------------
let me off here!!!! :) hey i finnally learned how to do it
I say we all hop in my new boat and invade the point and demand to be test riders!!!!!!
Just kidding of course
I like that idea. :) But rob you could take your boat by the point(and close as you can get) and take some picuters.

Looks like MF is getting a personality... I didn't realize how close it was to the water! I really love that pic looking out of the station towards the lift hill!

You know andrew, you have a great idea there. If I can get up there and get it into the water before the end of April, I will definitely take some pics and put them up here. If I see a calm saturday or sunday coming, i am there!
Are those metal queue-looking pipes for the queues or are they just to help the workers not fall off near the edges of the stations?
