I was at the park earlier today for the CP24 news story shoot on Halloween Haunt. Transfer track has been installed but they're still working on it as well as work continuing underground for Leviathan's station. I'm just gonna say now that this coaster is going to have quite the small station. Think almost half the size of Behemoth's.

I don't think the lift hill got much higher from last week, if at all. I only got a quick look from Drop Zone and I was busy trying to console my friend (her first time on it) so... There was definitely lots of work with the transfer track and such. Lots! Starting to look more "complete" in that area.

I imagine there will be bigger progress on the lift next week, as stated in the blog. I didn't get any pictures this time, but I should be able to get some on Sunday during the day. I imagine Tim got some, anyway.

This ride is going to be so impressive when it's done.
PS sorry for the bad pictures, I headed over to Behemoth first while it was still light.

WOW. That went up fast. It does look the station will be very small. I really like that lift hill shot thanks for sharing!

^ Indeed, every weekend I am amazed at how much work they do during the week. Definitely no slacking going on. :)

Can't wait to get close to 306 feet! Thanks for the great pics!

Also, they now have a ton of land clearing by the flag. They have multiple footers drilled in there, as well as some drifting over closer to the pass processing area. They are moving very quickly, and will probably only pick up as the off-season comes.

I was able to get up to the park today for a quick photo update! As mentioned, all the track is installed from the brakes up to the lift including the transfer track and all the maintenance bays. Full set of pictures can be found in our construction gallery here:

More supports being dropped off.

Another angle of the trench looking back towards the station area.

More footers and lots of track and supports. The tallest track pieces for the lift are around 7 feet tall!

Many more footers are complete along the west side of the parking lot.

Digging more footers near the front gate.

Not much has changed here since our last update...

A LOT has changed up here though.

As mentioned in the official blogs, a lot of the electrical has been done.

This is the general area Leviathan's entrance will be located (across from the shop).

The bottom of this picture (the large mound of dirt) is the former large planter that will be the future entry plaza for Leviathan.
