      Of all the parks in the US and all the different coaster types, I don’t think their is a more requested coaster than a giga at BGT than any park in the entire country.

    If that is a train under the tarp on the brake, it has been there since Friday at least. I believe a pull through was going to be done this week or next week.

    Hey Dan, I believe some of those markings(at least the blue ones by Kumba and the train tracks) are for some train work. I've seen them working on the track there on 2 separate occasions, as well as by Sheikra.

    It's weird they went from every coaster having trenches/tunnels to no coaster since Cobra's Curse having any. Really adds to the experience of a park that's flat. Though, I guess not every ride needs it. Hopefully there's some good near misses. Looks like you'll barely miss the station and skyride. And I guess it does have the 1 trench out front. I really think their next investment should be renovating the animal exhibits on the backside of Cobra's Curse/Montu that goes to the train station. Those are aging badly. Along with Jungala. Phenix Rising wiil be a solid addition though.

    Love the updates, Dan! I really enjoy your content.
    Would love to hear your possible predictions for the new project! We know United Parks (hate that name) has the relationship with B&M but do you think it could look to their other relationship with Intamin for the major, possible Giga project?
