If you could ask a question about the construction of copperhead (up to now) and the entire blue ridge junction project what would it be?

Will there be any active themeing (fire, fog, air cannon, etc) in the barn surrounding the first launch, or will it simply be a static set?

I'm assuming animatronics are out, but something more than the lights flickering would be nice.

My guess would be that it will be a combination of video, smoke, noise and lights. I'm really wondering about the story itself. It would be epic if it is done like Blue Fire where alarms go off, lights flash and steam spews as you are launched out of the barn as the still blows.

You don't wanna be surprised on opening day?

Thanks for the questions. If you have more, get them out before 9AM in the morning .

I don’t recall much in the animation inside the barn other the snake and smoke. Haven’t watched it in awhile however.

Is the still gonna blow? I was thinking you shot out of the barn to get away because granny was firing at you with her shotgun.

It was a fun tour, good to me a couple of y’all. Not gonna lie I was taking pics more than listening but the coaster looks great. Think I heard the first train should arrive toward the end of this month.

I'll have a video up this afternoon

Great meeting you as well! The trains are "in port" in Charleston and will arrive towards the end of the month.

[carolinaman]

It was great meeting you today Dirk. Keep up the great work with the pictures!!!

Here are a few photos from the tour. Rest are on my facebook page!

Below the Copperhead Strike sign, in the rocks. Is that a copperhead about to strike? I noticed the model from a trade show recently and never saw a close enough photo to tell.

Don't look too deep into it. Someone took "creative liberty" when creating this.
