I'm hoping that they are going to make the coaster look good with some track having yellow rails and some track having none because it looks very strange.

Maybe just the non-inverting loop will have yellow rails, and they'll fade it in. I could see that looking SICK.

Maybe because the others haven't been painted yet? Just a thought.

Another Facebook post from SFDK. Nice to see things coming along. However, at this rate, I question whether this thing will even be ready for July 4th weekend. *Shrugs* That's what Wintertime in the Park is for!

This picture is really, really cool. It's like a LEGO instruction book, just really huge! Let's hope SFDK isn't like me and just throws away the book to build whatever.

It's just amazing to me how these west coast Six Flags parks that don't have to deal with weather can never seem to get their new rides open for Memorial Weekend.

I mean, SFGAm had a MUCH bigger install than either SFMM or SFDK and at this rate it'd be surprising if either was ready for July 4th.
