Track and supports arrive for Timberland Twister

Posted | Contributed by CoasterCameron

Valleyfair! Online has completed an update containing pictures of the new track ariving daily near the Mall Of America for Timberland Twister. While this progress is being made outside, under the glass canopy of Camp Snoopy ground work, and final prep is moving fast for the start of vertical construction.

Away from any openings? Which ones? North, South, East or West?

No wait--better yet, here's the map. Pull out your crayon and show us where a 70-100 foot long station is gonna go. Elevate it and you only project the noise better--if you don't slap into an existing ride first. This isn't exactly RCT.

I don't argue opinion. I share facts and watch you choke on 'em. Go ahead, call me another name. It's all ya got at this point.

Well, I always pictured the station in the northeast corner. The southwest corner is closed too, but there's the theatre there. You can enclose things if noise really needs to be dampened. Amusement parks are naturally loud, no matter what attractions you have.

But you know, I'm not going to bother sketching anything out, because I'm not an engineer, and I really don't care about proving anything to you. You're going to argue your supposed "point" - god knows why - until the end. And I don't really care what you think. What I find funny is that I stated outright that it was a simple fantasy of mine, not a realistic expectation. You act as if I have plans in hand, ready to go in with a construction crew.

You can call what you present "fact" all you want. But it's not.

It's going to be elevated along the edge of the steam in the south-east corner. The map is not at all an acurate distance thing. And I know because i've seen.
Drew: This has (sadly) gone from TT to some silly imaginary indoor launched Intamin coaster with barrel rolls that would sound like SV in an echo chamber, if you could even make it fit at all.

Back to reality...somebody's bound to go this weekend and shoot more photos. Cameron, would that be you?

Sorry. I was still thinking you were talking about TT so I just said where the TT staition is.

I'm going tonight. I can send some pics to someone in athority at VFO as I don't have anywhere to host it.

You know, the most amazing thing about TT is the ability to walk right up on a coaster under construction. How often do enthusiasts--much less the GP--have a chance to get this close?

Many of the supports rounding the Kite Eating Tree to the west are in place, as well as couple high turnbacks after the first small drop.

It is painfully apparent that the layout in the miniature is an artistic interpretation at best. The actual ride looks far more interesting.

I'm sure somebody will snap photos.
