Did anyone hear the new news on The Voyage?

What gold trim? The wood thats going to be covered up by diamond plate steel? The trim going over the top of the nose and sides is silver.

It's not silver, in this case its gold. I know its hard to see in that photo but you'll have to trust me on that one ;)

With all due respect to you thoroughly modern sillies, I'll stick with spelling words in their entirety.

Thanks anyway, Paula

If you look real close, you can tell the diamond plated steel is already on the wood. Look right behind the locking mechanism. It's there and its gold...

Yeah, I see it here, Along with the paint. I still see no gold trim though on the sideboards.

I figured between you, Moosh, and Bill ... someone would appreciate that.

Oldies, but goodies...

Funny, I'd have thought you were actually referring to the original 1967 film, not the 2003 stage adaptation of the film.
But what do I know?

I saw it right away, Paula, thought about asking if anyone UNDER 30 caught the pun...

George, sorry, you don't count... ;)

Now, if Redgirl had gotten it, that would be different... ;)

P.S. I am still chuckling over "Will's wonders never cease"... :)

These references to Thoroughly Modern Millie are obviously important clues to the secret brand new never-seen-before-anywhere-in-the-known-universe feature.

Millie - tallest non-launched coaster. Thoroughly Modern - the latest.

Clearly top secret lift hill # 2 will make The Voyage taller than Millie. It'll be a heck of a brake run though to keep it from disrespecting The Beast. :)

That is...as the Brits would say...brilliant!

...but wrong.

yeah, Millie is not the tallest non-launched coaster. SD2K is. You would not want to disrespect SD2K though.

But they disrespected Millie which was a slap in the face of Goliath which disrespected....Steel Phantom......Magnum......Gemini......

With any reference to Millie, then we have to be talking overbank. ;)

Ok, at first I thought "overbank, yahn...", but now I'm thinking that could be pretty cool. How about a Stengel Dive? Oooooooo!

Thoroughly Modern Millie?

Well its obvious now: Holiday World is going to sell tapioca, raspberries, and soy sauce in the Thanksgiving section [no, not all in the same bowl!].

mOOSH [loves that movie!]

New Holiblog up with interesting shots.

Thanks Paula :)

'Moosh--

You forgot chloroform. :)

I remember hearing a rumor about a special window near the station on The Voyage; I wonder if that window will be made with green glass...
