It does appear that the water dummies are in place. These pictures are great, however, hopefully soon we can get some that are closer. -

No, this is not a picture of a train. This is a picture of the ride taken from a distance. I found it on flickr. http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2408/2275884541_fbf696d7fc_o.jpg -

A train is now at CW. No pictures yet, however. No word on whether all trains are there or not, but one train is at the park. -

Yes, but Canada is still the 2nd largest, even if the USA counts Alaska and Hawaii. -

Someone on CWMania said that they were listening to the radio and they said that the trains were being inspected at the border. -

Thanks to William from CoasterWorldNews (WorldCastNews it says on the video or something like that) for contacting Dineen Beaven at CW. The following is a link to the video, it is a telephone interview with Dineen Beaven and it's really great. Here's the link: http://urltea.com/2sml If you are strapped for time and want to get straight to the interview, skip to 4:05. -

Unfortunately YouTube is down, and has been down for the past half hour. Anyone trying to view the video will obviously, unfortunately be unable to do so. -

They could remove all sings and people are going to still think it's Paramount. Hell, people STILL believe that the park is moving to Woodstock. One of my co-workers a couple weeks ago asked me if I knew anything about the Transformers roller coaster that Paramount was building. LOL! It's alright if they remove the signs. But if they don't, people will still think it's Paramount and it will just take longer for people to realize and get used to the fact that the name has changed. People who think that they're going to lift up an entire theme park and relocate it, are plain stupid. -

Yeah I know. As far as I know, signs at the park are still not changed. This probably led them to believe that it's still under Paramount power. -

So your favorite ride of all time is a ride which hasn't even run yet? Don't set your expectations so high that it has no chance of matching them. The only roller coasters I have been on are at CW. Obviously Behemoth is going to be the best....... PS: For people that may possibly be having trouble with the video, I'm uploading it to an alternative source. Link will be posted soon.

Here's 3 Behemoth aerial pictures (they're old, btw): I found these while doing a Behemoth photo search on Flickr. -
