AdamY Posted September 21, 2011 Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 Heh thanks, glad to help The only work I actually saw in progress today was on the bridge. There were a few diggers meandering around as always, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexander Posted September 21, 2011 Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 Can imagine so, plus Air doesn't have oil dripping off everywhere... That's the main issue for Colossus...You can always tell with UK construction topics when boredom sets in... Complaining about the colour... I can't wait for the inevitable trim picture to turn up and make everyone angry...You're going to give me nightmares...But anyway, I'm so impatiently waiting for some track to go up! Really can't wait... Wish I was the patient type! Anyway, I suppose Thorpe might of thought of having dark track is maybe on Fright Nights it's harder to see the track, so it'll almost look like it's not there so it gives the illusion that you're really riding an alien? I could be over analysing though... But in daylight, whatever colour you choose is going to be visible and grey and black is a perfectly sensible colour for this project. There's only going to be two black coloured coasters at Thorpe, could be worse! As it stands anyway...

Geo Posted September 21, 2011 Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 Completely agree, Although it was supposed to be grey, I'm sure it was in plans somewhere, or on here maybe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coaster XTREME Posted September 21, 2011 Report Share Posted September 21, 2011 It is grey.. just a darker shade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diesel Posted September 23, 2011 Report Share Posted September 23, 2011 The moment of truth for all you guys, Track has started to be erected, it may only be the station track piece, but its a big jump! Drawin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshC. Posted September 23, 2011 Report Share Posted September 23, 2011 The moment of truth for all you guys, Track has started to be erected, it may only be the station track piece, but its a big jump!Well, technically, track has been erected for a while now.. But maintenance track doesn't really count, does it? ;)But that's still good to hear I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geo Posted September 23, 2011 Report Share Posted September 23, 2011 Yeah it has been like it for some time? I don't think the track will start erecting till mid next week, all the footers filled now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diesel Posted September 23, 2011 Report Share Posted September 23, 2011 I think you misunderstood 'RollerCoaster'... I was stating Station Track was erected today.... meaning not next week not last week today... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdamY Posted September 23, 2011 Report Share Posted September 23, 2011 They would have been posted if there were. Hopefully this means we will see some lift hill next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geo Posted September 23, 2011 Report Share Posted September 23, 2011 More mistaken, Diesel, I thought the station track was erected a couple of days back. (I was wrong) Also by mid week I meant actual vertical track ^. sorry for confusion :DThanks for the update diesel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mah boi Posted September 23, 2011 Report Share Posted September 23, 2011 To confirm, you saw track being put up with your very eyes Diesel, or did you hear about it? Sorry I sound so nossy, just to make sure it's not a lie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diesel Posted September 23, 2011 Report Share Posted September 23, 2011 I saw it with my own eyes. If you don't believe me your more than welcome to go to the park and see the track piece for yourself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

holtjammy16 Posted September 24, 2011 Report Share Posted September 24, 2011 Today I'm pretty sure nothing was going on, there was nothing mobile, and no workers there that I saw, but you can tell that the landscaping is coming along, there was a few idol diggers around the site.you get a really good view from riding Flying Fish, if you sit on the right hand side :)I tried to get a view on camera but this is as much as I could get: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mah boi Posted September 24, 2011 Report Share Posted September 24, 2011 But the most important question, how much track was up today? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jom222 Posted September 24, 2011 Report Share Posted September 24, 2011 I am going on sunday so I hopefuly will see the track Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diesel Posted September 24, 2011 Report Share Posted September 24, 2011 But the most important question, how much track was up today?Without sounding idiotic but if nothing happening on site today, and only a single segment was erected yesterday surely that means.... still only one piece of track?
