One strike against that model is that it doesn't match the concept art in the survey. I know that it is just concept art in a survey, but the train layout is completely different. I also hope that it has something like a 39" minimum height for more families.

I'm 99% sure it's going to be a launched coaster especially after bringing out that cannon and talking about launching at fanfest. So the Stryker model seems to be a top candidate!

(Which could be said for a lot of different models from different manufacturers, but still.) If the latest additions that Swooosh added hold true to the end of the construction process (lots of tunnels), imagine a section where you enter a tunnel with the shake effect track that Voltron has, and then you launch out to escape the collapsing cave!

Or it could be Mack's mine train but unpowered.

Yeah I forgot about the first of its kind statement. It may actually be a Mack Hyper or Stryker coaster. The footers match up with that design. Though that would be mind blowing for SDC to get two major coasters back to back from the same company. Especially when Dollywood still hasn't gotten their rumored Mack coaster as of yet. (at least until 2026 if you want to count NightFlight as a regular coaster)

^ That's good news they are getting another one.  I would hate to see the knife making demonstrations go away.

Stoped by yesterday and confirmed David Owen had left as knife maker. He did excellent forging work and will be missed. Good thing is the Knifemaker wanted sign is gone and they told me the new guy has about 20 knives ready to display. Jeust waiting on his makers mark to be delivered before they put them out for sale.
