Hey Guys, Once again HERE is some more images form today. Apologies for the poor lighting towards the end, It was the only chance i really had due to the rain. As we can see in this set, the floor of the building is just about covered in a concrete slab, and there car park is slowly getting smaller as they create more room for parts from MACK. Also on a box today was a Shipping Notice, the Model read "Water Coaster (Klein) Australien" so not sure if that means anything yet... EDIT, It wont let me add the link so here it is (http://harrisonkohn.net/images/gallery/)

I think what your seeing is the pump/control room that they have built near all the conduits rising from the ground.Love that you got so many pics of the show building interior. Is it my imagination or have they constructed an entire new concrete wall on one side of the building?

Hey Guys, Well after sitting in traffic for over 120 minutes to get to Sea World, we were greeted to a nice surprise. Lots of pieces are starting to arrive in the carpark awaiting assembly. There has also been quite a bit of work done too both in and around the new coasters home. As i have taken around 80 images today and Parkz Uploader is a bit annoying (no offence) i have uploaded them to a simple gallery on my own server HERE. The medium res ones are up now and the Full size ones are uploading as we speak. Anyone is free to use these aslong as credit is provided
Until next time

And we now have track. These were taken today. Sorry for the Reduced Quality, it was to fit them onto the site.
This was one of my friends ones. Here you can see on the metal tags the word "MACK" and a item number.

Im sure he said that the ride would debut with one, but a second would make an appearance later in the yearIf memory serves correctly he said "no plans at this stage"
-
There is no way Sea World will close a coaster after just relaunching it not long ago. As reanimated35 said more then likely they will be waiting for parts. And considering peak season starting next week, I have a feeling they wouldn't want a major coaster being shut. The Maintenance Guys at MW said they now send the Trains away once per yeah to sandblast the, back to bare metal, and repaint. They could be adopting the same treatment at Sea World, especially being so close the the Ocean and with all the salt in the air.

This has already been done.One thing thats unlikely to happen, but not impossible, would be to install magnetic brakes as seen on Battlestar Galactica at Universal Singapore. That would mean a much smoother stop, instead of those horrible block brakes instantly and painfully stopping the train.
Why Would MW issue a statement to say they ran out of time... that would just make them look disorganisedWhat's to say mm wasn't just messing around to spark interest? I'm more than happy to believe it....... once it's issued in an official statement from MW
-
I Belive that the maintenance man as a 100% reliable source of information, as the reason he was there was to answer our questions a a online media meeting.Next you'll be trying to tell me the maintenance man is not a reliable source of information
-
I was there when the question was asked, and he did indeed say that it was planned, but they did indeed run out of time.Also I ask him if the track layout would be getting a minor change to it as the we heaps of measuring points n the track, he said that they were planing to change the track but they don't have enough time. But said it might be changed latter on.
-
It Is true, I was there at the time, and what was more funny was seeing another person asking if they could release their harness mid-ride
-
OK then What on earth on earth would take 2 months to do for a "retheme" & new 'seats". Considering Green Lantern was built in a little under 3 months.
-
Yes, Yes i do. And i also hear the the parts to do this are already on site. also do you think they need survey markings for new seats?
-
Ok what about taking components of the track out and replacing them with something different like I don't know maybe the corkscrew park of the track. That I believe would alter the layout somewhat...

It seems he has started like 10 topics today

Sea World Has got the Contract, its Dreamwolrd who are on probation with Dreamworks
-
I did here rumors & Staff talking today about that corner of the park being themed entirely to DC Comics, which would also help the rumor of the Sally Corp Dark ride in the BMAR2 Shed
-
Media was all finished about 9:15
-
The Onride audio is now working and appears to be a lot louder then before. the Giant LED Logo stays solid green from what we have seen. Ill ask at this mornings media launch if that is the case.
-
Ive been told by members of staff that on-ride Photos will be available from Tomorrow onwards.
-
Using my background in Physics, i can't see anything of a heat issue causing this
-
NO ITS NOTHING LIKE A Q4U, the data to the q4u is manually inputed, and in peak periods that datas update very infrequently. this is fully automatic.

You have NO IDEA how this app works. it aint that simple what so ever, i dont want to give too much away but majority of the code is scanning for a change in an integer value of a specific time period. then relays that to a 0-255 scale/60/10. and thats only the basics. then there is code that make sure someone isn't blocking a sensor to give a false value, then there a ride op override control so if the ride closes etc and im hoping to be able to add a how many trains for superman etc featureWhy don't you guys build the app on Flex? That way you'll be building one code that'll run on iOS, Android, BB and the desktop without any need to port it over. Considering the primary function of the app is fairly simple (retrieving data from a database and displaying it), it should be fairly simple with Flex.
-
The app will be Free, thats right FREE. VRTP are a lot more interested then Ardent parks. It will be hopefully launching for christmas time on iOS Devices & android mid next year.
-
I Cant wait till your minds are blown away by my app. All because it worksOMG GUYS. I have an idea that could make Parkz MILLIONZ of dollarz! Teh Parkz App that tellz you about queuez and ridez while your in the parkz! (Too far, maybe?)
Until next time

I believe their all talking about is this. It clearly states on the delivery docket Water Coaster(Klein) Australien. I have a higher res one at home and will grab when I'm home from work. This same dockets was attached to multiple objects throughout the storage area.
