 And you recently announced that you said goodbye to it one of your oldest rides in the park. What happened there? That's right. Yes, there are a few changes in the park One of the big ones is the absence of extreme sky flyers. So this was the the bungee sort of sky flight Skydiving ride if you recall and that came out after 26 years We had to say goodbye. We have some long-term planning that's happening here at the park and there's some big things coming That you'll be hearing more about later this year, but it requires some space So we're working ahead to prepare some areas in the park for future development I'm here to talk to you guys today about what I am predicting to be Canada's Wonderland's Largest investment in history and I'm gonna talk about some of the reasons why this is already Starting to become one of the biggest construction projects I've seen in a really long time at a Cedar Fair Park So to start it off, let's talk about recent events first. So Guardian has had a Transfer track section added to the green circle area. It's either here or somewhere around this ending But I'm predicting the green circle It's been added somewhere around here and it's a place to remove the trains and store the trains as well So they redesigned this part of the ride not anything interfering with the actual ride cycle But they've redesigned this area to incorporate a transfer track that slides even Enstores the track now one might ask why was this added when they already had a system as displayed here on the screen circled in red in the far back if you see those yellow bars in the photo That they would transfer the trains off and lower them via like almost like a crane Down to floor zero to the basement tunnel one So to put this into perspective right behind us in this photo Is the entrance to the tunnel on the track where the garage door opens and shuts every time a train comes? And that hole in the back corner circled in red Downwards is kind of just in front of tunnel one as it enters the mountain So very very interesting why they've removed it. It makes total sense to me And I'm gonna I'm gonna explain why to you guys But this was the old way of doing it and yes, it was complicated, but it worked and they had no Reason to change this system and how it operated So one might ask with what we're seeing construction to help in construction in extreme sky flyer tunnel one being super reinforced Why might we be seeing something that's located near tunnel one completely being removed essentially? Well, the answer is very simple if we look at the location of tunnel one so on the screen Right now before you you have your tunnel one and it enters if you look at the orange circle dot almost in the center Of the mountain there in my photo my rendering That is the area that they would lower trains from guardian from level 60 to level 30 or level Zero tunnel so to put it into perspective Guardian is on level 30 the station guardians higher level is level 60 and the tunnel is level zero. We'll call it that so That orange circle goes all the way down to level zero the tunnel one is level zero as well So to put this into perspective if a coaster is gonna go through tunnel one and somehow get to tunnel three Them lowering trains is no longer possible off of guardian from that old system so that is why they've had to redesign guardian to have its own transfer track section and Area where they can work on the trains inside the actual ride Or they just remove them the old way like they do sometimes where they remove the turnpiece out of You call it The station and they just remove them that way So that's definitely what they're gonna be moving forward with because there is going to be a ride located there Well, that's a lot of work To make way for a ride So that alone, you know, if that was the only thing they did then, you know, I could see them doing it parks Have to make changes sometimes to make way for rides. Well, we saw a last-minute ride removal of extreme Sky flyers so extreme sky flyer has been removed last minute To make way for a future project It's pretty obvious that this piece of land has something to do with project 2025 That is even more so evitable Sorry, that is even more so evident with the construction that we see going on in Alpen So all these areas have a clear path of travel in terms of the coaster moving forward. So What does this say to you? Well, I'm gonna tell you right now studying those footings that they pre-put into the ground and a lot of people were like Well, this doesn't seem normal that they would dig these precast molds in the ground and then bury them again with bricks And I'm gonna tell you right now. It didn't work in their favor You'll see in a recent construction update two days from now that they're starting to sink So because of all the rain, but with that being said, I like top thrill too They did that where they kind of dug that giant triangular. I don't know. I said that so we're triangular metal Poles into the ground and then they buried it again and then they went and drilled the footings inside them Well, that's exactly what's gonna happen here in Alpen They're getting as much work done land prep mountain prep extreme sky flyer prep tunnel prep so that they can just go in when they're done moose horn falls and start on these footings and it's gonna be a Really quick process and it's gonna be just constant construction the minute moose horns footings are done and I Have a surprise for you guys next Friday. So next Friday. I'll have a little surprise for you guys really excited about this And yeah, so we'll be doing a cute little video with Canada's Wonderland on our channel and I wasn't expecting some of it, but I'm excited that you know, there'll be something for you guys But outside of that we have a lot of work going on so to put it all into perspective just to lay it all out for you We have extreme sky flyer removed Backlot cafe is getting completely re-themed and completely upgraded including its outdoor area Now that might also be because of the new ride the new ride might need some of the current outdoor area Or it's gonna pass over and under and they want to you know, obviously make it prettier You have tunnel one that was completely restructured with steel piles as well And completely just upgraded you have tunnel three that's been cut out You have tunnel to a new maintenance tunnel that's been reinstalled you have guardian That's been completely redesigned in terms of offloading trains and working on trains from its original concept They've added a bin system to know it's still not ready But they have it ready to go so very interesting that they're upgrading this attraction in this area So it's it's very it's it's a lot of work and that's not even including Elpin Relocated a drink stand. They've bulldozed Thunder Runs old station, but they're upgrading its power supply there There's footings that suggest, you know a giant top hat in that section And there's the possible Rumblings of it going back into the mountain and then launching out and heading back towards extreme sky flyer So it's a lot like a lot of work has gone into this and this isn't even including the relocation of tiny toms relocating Thunder Runs exit The plans to eventually upgrade Thunder Runs effects I don't think they've actually moved forward with that this season yet, and if they did it's very light But all this added up is a Significant project guys you've been watching my channel for what six months now We have just been watching land prep. We have just been watching land prep The coaster is about to start. There are some things that have happened in the mountain But we obviously can't see that but all this other outside land is about to start getting developed It's gonna start happening in the next two weeks and I can confirm that that we will start seeing Construction on this coaster begin and it's just gonna be full steam ahead So with that being said I wanted to come out here and tell you guys get ready for my official prediction video tomorrow on What coaster manufacturer? I think it is and even a generalized Layout, but yeah with that being said thank you so much for watching this channel I'm almost at 25,000 subscribers So if you could share some of my content send my YouTube channel to some of your friends and get them to subscribe That would be awesome. I want to hit 25,000 before my video with Wonderland next Friday Anyways, thanks so much guys for watching and have a good one. Bye
