Nice! I wonder if they’re looking to open it for Memorial Day weekend. -

SFSTL says they can have it painted and good to go in three short years. -

Pics from railroad side of Aquaman. Lots of pipes going into these trenches. Adding on to @Sportsdude360 's great photos. -

They were also running black and blue New Texas Giant trains at start of year but now it's been red and blue trains for a little bit. Black train is out of commission. Off the ride completely and not in storage. You can also see train #3 of Runaway Mountain driving down the road with the employee entrance. The shell of all 3 cars are visible right next to the road and employee entrance. The restraints are off of that one. Also they took down all Titan refurbishment signage around the path to New Texas Giant Flash Pass entrance @skyrocket010. They even started to run Sidewinder a little bit which did not run for the duration of Titan being down. -

You can see the transfer and storage from top of lift on New Texas Giant. All 3 trains are ready to go and in storage shed. During lift hill chain break they took all 3 trains off the ride completely. -

You would win that bet! Mid to late summer is the best bet for Aquaman based on current construction progress. -
By Sportsdude360 · Posted
Latest Aquaman construction photos. Splash pool is coming along nicely and the turntable seems just about ready. Themeing and queue line will be last. Possible mid-summer opening! Pirates Of Speelunker Cave queue theming looks good! -

Thanks! I checked the app today and it’s back open. I appreciate the info. -
She says kk won’t be more busy in afternoon. Especially since water park in center opens next weekend and will draw the crowd to that -

Thank you (and Kim) for the tips. Sounds like arriving mid-day at Holiday World, especially on a holiday weekend, is a no-go. Perhaps I'll take your guys' advice and do the reverse and start there, and hit KK on the way back if time/weather allows. I think I'm more interested in HW than KK. I've been on a million RMCs but the Voyage has been a huge bucket list ride for me, rough or not lol. Sad to hear you guys had a rough experience there. So hopefully arriving at KK mid-day wouldn't be as bad as HW, and if so I'd just skip it and go back to KI. I guess I'll see how things play out before buying tickets. Thanks -
Kim is driving. I read her your query. And she says yes it’s doable. But not enjoyable and holiday world will be PACKED in the afternoon (see above my comment about wait times shortly after open and raven & legend w/ 1 train ops id stick with kk. Or do the reverse and start at hw and hit kk on way back to Cincinnati. Kim agrees
-
We are literally in the car on the way back from kk (we did holiday world on Thursday) and ki for 2 days between can’t really answer your questions. But will give my impression HW on thurs ended up rained out ~1:30 pm. Park closed at 4 pm so we just called it at 3:15 and headed out to Cincinnati. Thunderbird had 1:20 wait when we got there just after park open (no skip the line options) But well worth it I thought voyage had 1:30 minute wait and was so rough. Even Kim said she’s never had that bad of a ride on it and we rode in row 2 ! never got on raven or legend as they are both 1 train ops and the rain came during our queue for legend. so we rode a couple of flats (turkey shooter & hysterically awful nursery rhyme train) before everything shut down completely. the park is beautiful and very much enjoyed walking the whole park even tho everything was closed down some unique flats and stupidly short starflyer too the bumper cars are horses tho! As to KK ? Yeah. I liked it better than HW So I’d agree it’s the superior park. But that’s because I love WTF things. And this park is a massive WTF? its right near the airport and in the convention center complex. So the entrance to the park looks like it’s sitting across from a mall parking lot great selection of unique flats I’d never seen and some WTF rides such as a blimp ride that made me nauseous , a Flying Dutchman where you ride in a shoe, and this musical carousel where you ride the instruments ! no. Really: the coasters are interesting and lightning run is one of a kind But I don’t like ejector air and both it and storm chaser have lots of it (so rode them twice but not high on my list) thunder run looked to have a lot of new wood and tho warned it was rough? Loved it and rode multiple times. My favorite coaster in the park. Kentucky flyer was fun but short with some funky transitions Didn’t ride T3 (NO thank you). But did ride the roller skater - which has a beautiful setting and unique layout I thought GORGEOUS carousel too. Tho sadly in need of a lot of love as the paint is in *bad* shape oh and they have cinnamon bread now too. (And lots of dolly and country music being played thruout the park ) if I can only go to one? I’d go back to kk even tho curious about trying the missed coasters at hw Tho of voyage is the smoothest of the woodies? Prolly good rained out

Great TR from a kind of out of the way park! Love the photos of coasters with an active volcano behind them! -
In another site's information pages, there was this tidbit about what's coming to the Studios' Avengers Campus, soon... Buffet? It sounds like it's the same concept, as the Queen of Hearts Banquet Hall in Tokyo Disneyland. All the food is there, plated/bowled etc, to be picked up, w/o ordering, (sliding your tray along), unless it's a special order (as opposed to = Smorgasbord). Me and the guys at Queen of Hearts Banquet Hall. Note we haven't taken everything off of our trays, yet. TPR 2007 Japan Tour. 🗼
