I'm making a recreation of The Boss at Six Flags St. Louis. I need photos of the whole layout, trains, and overview shots of the ride. Can anyone help?

http://www.rcdb.com/installationgallery616.htm - a bunch of pictures of different sections, and some train shots

http://www.coastergallery.com/SF/STL28.html - a nice picture of the layout

http://www.coastergallery.com/SF/STL.html - a lot of good pictures, including the above one

http://www.coastertown.com/gallery/SFStL/Boss09 - lift steepness and a bit of a turn

http://www.coastertown.com/gallery/SFStL/Boss07 - double down

http://www.coastertown.com/gallery/SFStL/Boss08 - some turns

http://www.coastertown.com/gallery/SFStL/Boss10 - drop and turny thing

http://www.coastertown.com/gallery/SFStL/Boss11 - closeup of some hills

http://www.coastertown.com/gallery/SFStL/Boss12 - a blurred image of the trains, although front is kind of visible

http://www.coastertown.com/gallery/SFStL/Boss14 - the banking of one of the turns, and part of the trains

Do those help? Do you need more?

Um ... I would take some more time designing or perhaps get some testers before you post this. I have a feeling there are MAJOR problems with this and your rates are going to be in the gutter ...

Good luck on this beast...CCI's are so simple, yet, so complicated at the same time. The Boss is no exception. I know someone who got to walk it with the engineers, pictures all over the thing :P Alot of the pics arent of much help though, mostly detailed shots of the tracking and such.

Real, could you make a 3D station, storage, and a cartexture for me?

And I still need testers!

I've sent the track to all who volunteered. Please let me know what you think and give me suggestions on how to improve.

Shortkid422, something is wrong with your E-mail and I can't send it.

Does anyone have an overview shot of Boss?

Fornification Nation, thank you for testing. I have sent the track to you. I do not need anymore testers at this time. Sorry. One more thing, can someone please tell me how to put a track on the site. I would appreciate it.

Hey, sorry I didn't reply sooner...at Sfog...but, the ride was...ok, some of it was a little off, especially the end. This kind of ride is sorta like a ride you would only recreate if you've ridden it. Also, the ride is only about 100 feet, but there is a natural ditch 50 feet deep that makes the first drop about 150 feet.
