Nope, I use the "Enter" key.
Like I did there.

Strange. When I do that, I automatically get a

double

line

break.

Like I did there.

Huh. Not sure why you're having that problem.

Sounds like something for the Feedback forum (not that its really a critical thing).

I think they will start vertical construction in one week and three days.

I was wondering if they had armed gaurds at the blue tarp/staging area... It'd be tempting to hop the fence. I'd say it's either a nice and respectful show of restraint or a good editing job by the mods (not that it'd take much work to remove a pic but, ya know).

Do the trains/cars come in a bunch of different pieces or do they typically come attached wiht the seats and all the hardware already put together? If they come completed and ready to go on track, would they store them outside or in a maintenance building somewhere?

I've got to figure that under the tarp is either the train or a brake section or a launch section...

You could go ahead and jump the fence and try and look under it but, you'l have to pay a hefty fine for tresspassing and CP would probably prosecute you. But no go right on ahead.

Wood.

It's Wooden crates containing nuts and bolts. I saw them unload the crates. *** Edited 7/12/2006 6:36:25 PM UTC by RICHARD LYMAN***

I was just saying it'd be tempting... A lot of things are tempting...

I could be wood. :)

If all the footers are now poured, it looks like its going to be a short ride. I hope that there will be more to the ride.

That seems very possible.

I like the thoughts of lyman...i mean honestly, there are better places to put plain old wood ithan in a staging area. It's not like wood is very difficult to transport or very bulky, so why place it at a staging area for so long, and not use it yet. (two weeks i think). Cedar Point often doesn't make sense, but it just doesn't seem logical to put regular wood in a staging area for so long...I think it's more than that

^How doesn't CP make sense?

i mean how they sometimes mislead on future projects, say one thing but mean another. They do it to keep us coaster junkies on edge lol ;)

Are you kidding me?

There's like a million footers out there, and the same number of supports.

I swear, some people are never happy with anything.

Vince once again nice pictures there bud. ^ Who knows it could be really fast.

they've only been pouring footers for over three months now, of course its gonna be short. ;)

Yes Aighead, they have armed guards by the tarp. CP gives them grenades just in case people get too close. ;)
