PennStater Posted June 13, 2019 Share Posted June 13, 2019 I believe there are two track pieces remaining. I just received word from someone at the park that they are working today, despite some rainy weather! I'm guessing vertical construction should be complete either today or tomorrow.

nmb3506 Posted June 20, 2019 Share Posted June 20, 2019 Steel Curtain - June 17th I can't wait to go to the park and see this, I can't believe its almost July and I haven't gone yet. For living only 30 minutes away and getting a discount through my work I have no reason not to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

operative_me Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 Wow, that looks awesome. I'm going to have to dig deep to put aside my hatred of the Steelers for this. It may sound silly, but I think TurnOfTheCentury is right, I think this ride is sort of being overlooked for 2019, but might turn out to be the best.

Samuel Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 Looking good! It's nice to have that first test run in the books, and Steelers Country looks like it's developing swiftly now. A solid clickety-clack scores points in my book, and it seems/sounds like a quiet, smooth ride. I'm really looking forward to this now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i305isdaddy Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 Agreed, she's not even warmed up yet and that back row already looks like it will be amazing. I'm a little shocked they don't have rescue platforms for possible valleys in the first inversion and the banana roll... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
