Rickrollercoaster Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Â Judging from this incredibly high res photo, you can clearly see the two other buildings, which I predict to obviously be Gift Shop (Closest to the station.) and The Pepsi Oasis/Restrooms. Case closed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyleparks77 Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 ^if the pathway renderings are accurate, it appears the pathway to the station breaks off of the current pathway right at Hyena Falls. I'm basing that off of the footings for the Immelmann loop being right next to the slides Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rickrollercoaster Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 It's the maintenance road, I'm pretty sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeroGravity55 Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 The Pathway continues down to The Voyage's third 90 degree turn based on this animation from one the videos. I still think they're going to utilize that tunnel that was used to get to PP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rickrollercoaster Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Definitely not using the tunnel for Thunderbird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midgetman82 Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Oooh, you'll end up walking behind Hyena Falls. Then I agree, they'll probably have everyone using the tunnel to separate dry guests with water park guests... Or they break the path leading to Hyena Falls off to go towards the coaster.

ZeroGravity55 Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Definitely not using the tunnel for Thunderbird. Â What? How would you know? The park hasn't said anything about how they're going to make this whole pathway situation work. All I know is that the survey markers I saw in June came all the way down to where that tunnel is. That's basically why I've been saying I think they're going to use it this whole time. They're either using the tunnel or they're connecting to the pathway above tunnel leading to Hyena Falls. Â Oooh, you'll end up walking behind Hyena Falls. Then I agree, they'll probably have everyone using the tunnel to separate dry guests with water park guests... Or they break the path leading to Hyena Falls off to go towards the coaster. Â This... Makes the most sense to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midgetman82 Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 ^Funny. I was half-asleep and getting ready to head to the airport when I wrote that... I barely even remember writing it. Anyways, I can only imagine the new angles of Voyage you can finally get without needing a walkback tour! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rickrollercoaster Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 The only way to get to the tunnel is to walk left past the SS Thanksgiving entrance, then down tunnel, the tunnel leads out to Plunge station. Thunderbird is already a good distance away, I don't think they want people making that much of an effort to ride it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyleparks77 Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 ^ I'm confused by your reasoning there with the "I don't think they want people to walk that far." It's going to be the same distance from current pathways to the TB station no matter what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rickrollercoaster Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 I made this to let you guys see it and actually think about it. The Orange would be the current walk to Thunderbird, and Blue would be walking through the tunnel to get to Thunderbird. Now Unless they dig under the pathway and create a ramp leading out of the tunnel towards Hyena falls, I highly, highly, doubt they would use the tunnel. It doesn't make any sense other than to demolish the tunnel and build a walkway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodie Warrior Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 This is a completely pointless conversation. Can't we wait until Holiday World tells us how they are going to handle the pathways? Does it seriously even matter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aCoasterStory Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 For all the speculation about the path to Thunderbird-- Â There is a new concrete pathway that has been poured that looks to be for Thunderbird. Said pathway connects directly to the Hyena Falls pathway basically right above the tunnel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was hoping they would do one soon! And now we know what that gray steel is for in the background. The construction site looks so different now than it did back during the announcement. Exciting!

Rickrollercoaster Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Is it just me, or does the transfer track look like it has too much space between the other section, or if it's just parked fatter and it's an illusion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HolidayWorldFTW Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 So it looks like we have pathway enthusiasts among us. Wow. Â Â (who gives a crap) Lol this is going to sound so nerdy and dumb but I get the pathway excitement lol. I dunno why. When playing RCT2 I always spend lots of time designing my path layout and thinking it through. I think it will be interesting to see how HW does the pathways in this area. I also thought the way they did the path from Splashin safari to pilgrims plunge interesting, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kyleparks77 Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 Pathways do have a huge affect on how guests perceive the atmosphere. They essentially guide the eyes of the guests and lead them to see what the park wants them to see. Compare the paths at a Disney park to a typical Six Flags park. It makes a huge difference Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
