What's new

Silver Dollar City | Time Traveler | Mack Looping Launched Spinner

I could see them pulling some of those bs records together to create a sort of "Most Extreme Spinning Coaster" approach similar to what they did with Outlaw Run. Honestly, the "Most Daring Wood Coaster" billboard for Outlaw Run near the park is enticing and had I been GP and seen that I would have wanted to go find out more about it.

Interested to see the Roman tie in with the theming, how much of that they can market before it stops feeling like the 1880's SDC we all know and love.

I think it's going to be centered around time travel. Something like "Authentic Tours of Ancient Rome!* See Professor Notaconman for details!"

*Roman tours may involve cheap props in an attempt to sucker you out of your money. No refunds.
 
This week's update...
Paint has appeared on the station. Announcement set for August. Not much has changed with track due to wet weather and a nearby earthquake (25 miles away)

Hang on, did they actually rivet that sign into the wall, then shove a big huge NAIL into there for authenticity? Kudos SDC!
 
Surprise! Surprise! I had a reader send in photos - so we have an update after all.

Programming Reminder: there will not be an update posted next weekend (July 8-9) as I will be on vacation to the East Coast (SFGAdv, BGW, KD, HP, etc). We will resume the following weekend (July 15-16).
 
Nice! Have you got a source for them? It would be great to see them in a higher resolution.
 
Finally, an update. I was beginning to wonder why you'd gotten so lazy. ;)

Are you invited to the event?

I'll have someone there. I will be back teaching by then so hard for me to get away during the week.

I posted this on my blog, but the only real change since I was last at the park was they put up the supports for the exit bridge from the station.
