Just curious, but has anyone seen any new markings throughout Frontiertown. People keep saying on here how this new project could reach the isle in the park, but I have been to the point about about 1/2 dozen times, and I haven't seen any markings?

I think there are a few around the Antique Autos in Frontiertown, perhaps for utilities? I doubt the new ride will reach the island...I think it's going to stay pretty confined to where it is now and maybe where the autos are.

I didnt think it would reach that far, so thanks.

That's just my personal opinion...whether it works out that way or not, who can say until August

On Media Day I saw a small wooden stick that had pink spray paint on it. The other day I saw some very small spraypaint markings (maybe an inch in diameter) that were orange and pink right by the Early Pet Farm.

I have too say that I beleive it when someone was talking about how the different direction they are going is for length of a coaster instead of heigth. Does anyone else seem to think so?

Nooooooooooooooooooo..... It would never make a trip out to Millennium Island. Then it wouldn't be just "millennium island" anymore, now would it? ;-)

Millennium/Maverick island? hehe.

If someone seriously thinks the new ride will extend out to the island, where the heck do you think it will cut through. From Left to Right: CCMR blocks a big chunk of access to the island, Frontier Lift Bathroom blocks a lot, that new swing called Skyhawk isn't very small, Snake River Falls is quite big, and then you have a few shops and the bone yard.

Mine Ride isn't exactly an imposing wall of a structure. There is more than enough room to fit supports and its not like you'd have to go that hight to get over it. It would definitely be interesting to have something that goes to the island and interacts with Millie.

^True, but I think that will look very ugly going over everything. It would take away from the other rides.

I agree. I didn't say it would be aesthetically pleasing, just that it was possible.

I don't know if they are still there, but I remember seeing some markers on Millennium Force island. You could see them while riding the Paddle Wheel Excursions. There was at least 3 or 4 on the southern side of the island.

Three things you need to fix anything in the universe: duct tape, WD-40, and a hammer. Duct tape if it moves and it shouldn't, WD-40 if it doesn't move and should, and the hammer as the last resort.

Well, if its not going to the island then do you actually think that its gonna make its way away from where they are doing construction?

May 31, 2006, 4:45P

I can see them rerouting Antique Cars to make more room, much like they did when to Turnpike Cars when Raptor was built.

I would think the markings by the pet farm have to do with the new transformer that is located out there under the overbank.

Good call about it being for electrical. I am sure they need to reroute some lines.

A friend of a friend of an employee's mother-in-law's hairdresser told me that it would have a pretzel type turn around somewhere in the neighborhood of Breakers Express.

We heard the same! And I heard that the 600 foot chain lift will extend all the way to Put N Bay!

That's hillarious.... but if its going to Put-In-Bay why not make it a 2500' high coaster that goes 500 miles an hour over 40,000 feet of track with 78 inversions?.. now that would be something!
