Peacock has a program called "The Making of Jurassic World VelociCoaster." I would absolutely to see SDC do that with this new attraction. Anyone else agree? Oh and checkout that show on Peacock. Really interesting. Thanks.

I've noticed that the new rock work on the back side of the Lumbercamp falls has a significant gap between the retaining wall and the new rock work. Any ideas if there will be a water feature on the MME side?

Hopefully for trees to be plants and save the integrity of the views. Doesn't make sense to have a roller coaster on top of the waterfall.

Less than a week away, lock in your guesses:http://youtube.com/post/UgkxXk1Kny42w3HkSZ-Yp5bZttwo_BIfjZWl?si=JNVON3GaGlrXr20q

I got some pictures today, but really nothing new that has not already been shown earlier this week. There are indeed supports on the Powder Keg side of the station, but they haven't been raised yet. The speed that they have applied theming to they Wildfire side of the ride is indeed most impressive.

I'm just now getting back into all this. Not going to dig too far through the nonsense over the last few pages, but I'm surprised we haven't dug in any deeper on analyzing what this could be.

I don't see many obvious signs, and the layout is still fairly small and tight as of the last I have seen, so it's hard to narrow it much other than it won't be a hyper coaster which keeps being mentioned for some reason.

If we have for some reason landed on it being a Mack coaster, I'm not seeing any signs that it could be anything other than a youngstar/family coaster or a Big Dipper/Stryker model. If you had forced me to guess without seeing any speculation beforehand, I would assume it would be a youngstar just because that fits the line up best, even if this was planned before TNT was known to be forced into retirement. A four-across Mack looping coaster next to Wildfire seems odd to me unless they have something really unique they are adding to it such as a switch track.

Anyway, I plan to be there next weekend. Won't be part of the announcement festivities, but I think it will be fun to be there at least when it is announced and see the initial reaction in the park.

They have to get the station presentable as the media is getting a tour of the site after the announcement

I think it's because so many of us already know and are just waiting for it to be announced so we can discuss it.

I like how we've matured to only sharing things that can be confirmed online or through photos that you can get LEGALLY inside the park. It help protects the "fun" of the announcement

The countdown is on to August 14th! 4 days!

I was eating lunch by the water fall at lumber camp and a whistle kept going off. It sounded almost like the train but more airy sounding.

That is the duplicating lathe by the furniture store

Oh... good to know. I didn't know the lathe had a whistle

MidwestInfoGuide · August 10, 2026, 07:36:44 PM

With that being said, a work whistle sounding every time a train dispatches would be cool
