Here's a bit
of the lift structure taken from Allentown Road. According to
Denise Dinn-Larrick of CCI at the Legend walk back they had to redesign
the ride several times because city of Eureka did not want the lift
near the road. It seems that they are paranoid that the park will
close (this is Six Flags we're talking about!) and the coaster will
fall over onto the road that boarders the park.
Here's a shot
of where the drop will be. Piled up there is a bunch of the structure
for the lift. I figure they'll start working on the drop in a
week or so. I'll post some updated photos after my trip on February
7th so that you can see the progress.
In addition to the new
coaster it looks like the Screaming Eagle is getting some work as the
turnaround has some tarps covering the track. If you haven't rode
this great out and back hit it as it is pretty fun.
