"Water will be involved." MrScott 2006

We followed the truck with the track on the back of it from Breakers Express, in front of the Fire Station, Left onto the causeway and all the way into the park. Robert was driving while I took pictures. I felt like we were "Track Stalkers"

Oh yeah, sorry for the bad quality.. we were having digital camera issues so we had to use our cell phone cameras! *** Edited 8/16/2006 2:10:24 AM UTC by RyanNRobert***

Woder if the driver was thinking if you were following him or her or not. By the way thank you very much for the pics, I can't belaive you got so many good ones. That goes to everyone who are taking or took pictures of the ride they have been very good all of them have. Thank you.

By the way I think the annoucement for this new ride will be in the next 2 weeks but who knows, that my prediction.

A Michigan State Spartan Fan!!!

You guys were track stalkers! I was giggling when I was looking at the pictures of the truck! Good pictures!


"THE Top Thrill Dragster...THE Millennium Force...THE Wicked Twister...THE Magnum! How do you like those apples?!?!?"

Oh yeah, the driver knew. We followed him going 15 on the causeway!

So, what did you buy from Target?


eat. sleep. ride! - Coaster apparel and accessories!

Ride on, MrScott!

Holy crap - that's histerical/awesome. I got a kick out of seeing those pictures.

What time were they moving these pieces?

Wow - Great pics thank you!

I think these show a prototype train is still possible. The track is clearly 7 feet off the ground, and with an 18 inch diameter seat, I think there is still a slim chance for those trains! Furthermore, I can't believe an Aquatrax would have enough capacity for CP.

LOL @ The target bag. I knew someone would see that! Did you see the wonder bread, too? That's what we bought at Target!

They were moving the track at about 3:15. It took them awhile to load them onto the truck in the staging area.

That's funny about the Target bag! I have to look again!

Great update.

Thanks guys.

101 on Magnum and counting...

ha ha sweet pics, there are a lot of pieces of track going up just in 2 days about what 7 pieces of track went up. Sweet

As a matter of fact, we pretty much spent the day watching the construction. The park was PACKED, and there was so much activity going on back there, that we decided just to watch in anticipation. They're definetly moving right along. And next time we decide to stalk, we'll make sure the digital camera is working!

That still is some great stuff. To bad I allready used up my CP trip this year. I almost wish I hadnt now. :*(

I'm sooooo psyched. I'm going to be at the point on Thursday. I'm definitely going to be taking pictures.

Mine as well - nice photophop addition too.

This one leads me to think the prototype could still be alive - minimal trenching would solve any issues.
