I was gonna say....haha.

**EDIT** I guess he didn't wanna keep his post about the inside joke gold tracks!

Are you talking about me? If so I have no idea how my post got deleted. But yes. It's been an inside joke.

Yeah I saw your post but then it was gone...I am not sure what happened.

Pinkerton Express. Related to train robbery. Heist derail. We're words related to train robberies

Hopefully they at least wipe the tracks down. In some pics they are filthy lol

Well duh! You can't do any painting outside without washing your canvas first. Silly Paul.

well played sir lol

I was also considering the name Railblazer. It's right behind the Cedar Point Railroad station and if the mascots/new characters for the ride are wanted bandits, it could be a train heist/robbery theme. The new trains could even have their fronts resemble the front of an old western train. It would really fit on Mean Streak's new steel track.

Regardless of all of the speculation, pomp, circumstance, and every emotion we could feel since the announced closure: August 16, 2017 (National Roller Coaster Day) is going to be AMAZING. What are we up to now? Five Cedar Fair 2018 announcements?

I'd like to see the train station moved closer to Gemini midway. Maybe squeeze it in right by Stockade refreshments?

I think the current train station is too far back. Moving it closer to Gemini would allow easier access to more of the park.

What on earth are you guys talking about? Paint.

Its really not that far back once MS re opens. Mavericks line entrance is also right when you walk off the train too

Iron Bandits. ink it haha j/k

If I were a betting man, I'd bet that literally none of the names that Scotteh has tossed out there are going to come true.

Three weeks, people. Then you'll know the name and stats and all this weird, baseless speculation of the name will have been pointless.

It's one thing if Railblazer wasn't all but confirmed to be going to California's Great America. I'd be on board with it still being speculated here. But Cedar Point hasn't given us any indication of what the name could be, even through trademarks.

So names like The Gambler, Iron Bandits, etc. don't have anything to do with anything at this point. Why keep throwing things out there randomly when there's a 99% chance that they won't actually be used?

^^ because this is a forum about discussing 2018 plans....... This is literally the place to do this....just sayin

I understand that. But I'm just sayin' that there are other magnificent things to look at and speculate about. The name is going to have the least amount of significance to the overall experience of the ride.

Sorry, I know it seems like I'm bitching about something trivial, but the last 4 pages have been nothing but Scotteh trying to conjure some mysterious name that won't actually happen and it's a little ridiculous to wade through, especially when there are other things to talk about. It just reeks of GOLDTRAX!1!!

I'm really rooting for Cedar Point this time around for noting to be leaked. Gatekeeper and Valravn's announcements definitely had some of the steam taken from them because everything was leaked beforehand.

I agree. I like to be surprised. Leaks suck.

Well Sparta 42. I got you pegged as a crank. Sorry for trying to have some fun here. Seems to me we know a lot about MS 2.0 by looking at pics and videos. So thought we could have some fun a piece together the clues posted on here to figure what this beast will be called. But I will shut up now. Last post from me.... peace out.
