Congrats on the job! You should get a ton of hours.

While the aerial pictures are a little old (still a great view of the layout though!), the station has begun to take shape! Photo's courtesy of Coaster Studios (aerial photos) and the park's Twitter (for the station)

^ Hopefully that ride will be more exciting... from the second hill!

Edit: I added "^" to show my excitement!

hours have been posted and opening weekend their open Saturday and SUNDAY, closed Friday for private event. Following week, Friday and Saturday. Closed SUNDAY for private event...............this is weird lol

Progress is amazing! check out these photos from the park's twitter and some wood that will be used for #TheShed (photo creds to the parks Twitter)

Some great shots of the ride there - makes me more excited to see the finished product!

We'll see a lot of technical elevations, I hope!

This looks great so far!

You guys are going to be disappointed when the only thing in the shed is an air compressor.

^ That's one "LOL" thing!

Station work looks to be about 50% done?

Yes, ERT is only for Gold and Platinum pass holders

Was at the park for a returner party on Saturday and I couldn't help but snag some photos of this beauty closest to The Beast in Rivertown and let me just say this. YOU CAN SEE THE RIDE FROM INTERNATIONAL STREET BY AUNTIE ANN'S.......... and the new GM made his debut Saturday as well! (Photo credit to Kings Island)

I hope that... Mystic Timbers will be like WOF's Prowler which is close to the ground!

In some spots it will but you have to remember that it interacts with WWC.

Anyways check out these new construction photos from CPFoodblog on Coaster101:http://www.coaster101.com/2017/02/11/guest-blog-mystic-timbers-construction-update/

Looks like Troy!

Wow those photos hype me up like "MT" is gonna be a darkhorse along with the CP's RMC!

Lift chain was installed yesterday AND the transfer now has a roof, you can probably guess what two things will be happening probably in a couple weeks!

Trains and TESTING!

People were so down on this ride when it was announced. It looks fantastic!

So that's why you rarely wear a jacket. So you can blame "the cold" for the hard nipples. :V
