Coaster19 Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 *just saw that. A crane has been brought in. They are working on the top of the lift. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterbill Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 If that's the case then this seems exactly like the lift chain issue it had right around the same time last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJeXeL Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 Cam has been moved so you can't see work happening on lift. You can see the boom of the crane but that's it. Hope it's nothing serious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coaster19 Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 That will suck. I hope it is not the lift chain issue again. Also side note, it is crowded today. 45 min wait on Millie, about 45 on Maverick. Here some construction photos: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ImNotOneOfYou Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 45 minutes to Maverick is crowded? I waited 2 1/2 hours for Maverick and the rest of the park didn't seem very crowded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love that ride now with the new restraints. I just don't want to wait more then 15 mins on coasters! I am very inpatient anymore, especially since I am a single rider and waiting in lines can get extremely boring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterbill Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 If it's not a lift chain, what could it be? The lift motor is at the bottom of the lift... I would almost guarantee it's the chain (though I'm no expert). Last time they had it fixed in about 3 days. I'm sure they'll bust it to get it open for Labor Day weekend.

I apparently always visit on the worst days because I have NEVER seen a wait less than an hour for Maverick in the past 4 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could also be a component on the chain housing or chain-trough nylon lining. I've personally seen those become an issue before when the chain starts making hard contact with it.

CP Maverick Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 So, did anyone else notice that they moved all the cameras yesterday, within an hour of parking a trailer in the GTT construction site? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoppy Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 ^ You will see trucks coming and going into the construction zone here on Cam 1... http://pixelcaster.com/live/cedarpoint/ If only the cam was tilted down a bit more you could see the entire area...

Peeps28 Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 Headed back to the point after a 3 year absence. My 7 year old daughter just hit the 54 inch mark. She's a coaster and theme park junkie just like us. I cant wait for the expression on her face when she sees the coasters she's going to get to ride. Extremely proud of her. She has no fear!

CP Maverick Posted September 2, 2015 Share Posted September 2, 2015 So, based on the FAA site and the leaked layout, this is the closest I could get. I also highlighted the current Marina Entrance Midway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My kid's turning 4 next week, and at the moment is only 42", but he's definitely hooked on all sorts of rides, especially coasters. So about another three years to go before he can hit the biggest of the big boys, then... Be sure to let us know how she enjoys the coasters!
