Nice photo update Walt. I see they have one of the supports up and spiral staircase assembled for the MCBR. GK inching closer and close to track completion.

This might be the coolest looking coaster I've ever seen.


Let's Get Weird.

Nice pictures, the panoramic one is cool.

How come those pictures say underneath them that they were uploaded on Feb. 8th?

That panoramic is a stunner. Love the light catching the box spine.

It's one of those things a software developer might call a "feature." :)

Neat.

Wow, it comes a lot farther out of the park than I thought it was going too.

Amazing shots Walt.

^ Yeah what he said. :)

I figured it had something to do with time zones but I just don't understand haha.

http://pointbuzz.com/Photos/Photo.aspx?id=8670 ] Walt, this was my favorite picture. I can just imagine it now of what this will look like come May when a train is going through.

This picture caught my attention http://pointbuzz.com/Photos/Photo.aspx?id=8690 any idea what this is here for ? Maybe Walt or anybody for that manor can answer this. Don't want to speculate on anything just yet.

That perform? I think that's for assembling the chain.

Wonderful pictures, Walt. Thanks for taking the time to get out there.

I'm really looking forward to see the station and front entrance start coming together.


Promoter of fog.

I agree with Kevin....even though its fun to see track and supports going up, I always like the total transformation of the entire area. I can't wait to watch the new gate area and area surrounding the station develop.

Not many coasters are actually beautiful...but Gatekeeper definitely is.

This will be a VERY popular photo shot when May comes around.

^ Adam, that shot looks Identical to the one I liked and showed to Walt. Like you said, it's going to be a popular photo area come May. Depending on the weather come opening day, a lot of people will be taking pictures. Lets all hope for sunshine with a high around 70 degrees. :)
