Six Flags Magic Mountain

[Freak]

Big crane spotted today at Magic Mountain.

Don’t know what it’s officially for, but it seems likely it’s for the big project they’re getting ready for. SFMM is cooking something big!

I wonder--could this...actually not be for the coaster?

Like--could this be for what we've all bee waiting for; the Sky Tower Elevator finally being fixed?

Not that you mentioned it, I think that’s entirely possible. I was at the park a couple of weeks ago and I do recall while on Tatsu seeing a lot of construction equipment and supplies scattered around the base of the Sky Tower.

But I also want a giga lol

seems like thats it? no other permits that have been "issued" in the past month that could explain that large crane

Though I am unable to find out what the above structure # is referring to

Kind of crazy we are about to get a major world-class coaster and the restoration of the Sky Tower, and I can't help but think the latter is better than the former.

Restoring a park icon, and making it part of the park properly now; would be insane to finally see happen.

That's not a crane. That's actually part of the new flat ride they're opening this summer. Obviously

I looked thru the entire excel sheet of records for SFMM and no other record uses "P5752547 or H547D"

hmmmmm

So what does this mean for some of us non-permit savy people like me?

Honestly. I am not sure. But those two “codes” refer to some structure or location at the park. Even though those codes are not mentioned in any other permit that i could find.


Though the fact that it is two does seem like it could be referring to sky tower and the associated elevator within said structure.

But thats just me throwing stuff at the wall

 

[Wesker69]

Okay but if we're "rumored" (as of now) to be getting the Sky Tower back in operation, can Ninja please get a fresh coat of paint? (and redo the queue)....

While they're at it, can they restore the restaurant that's rotting away at the middle of Samurai Summit? But make it an Asian one... oh like relocate Chop Six & expand the menu.
(Also having been inside that building when i worked at the park, it was creepy)

Those permits are for So Cal Edison to access electrical in the streets. Has nothing to do with MM. MM address is used a lot on their permits.

Interesting. Then i wonder what permit that crane is related to.

Could be something that doesn't require a permit. Or permit just hasn't been entered yet.

Down she goes!

[Wesker69]

Burning it down would've been faster.

 

[Freak]

Kinda surprised they’re straight-up tearing the whole structure down. I figured they would want to reuse at least some of that structure for the station.

I guess that’s a good sign they’re willing to throw some money into this new coaster?

 

[GAcoaster]

Kind of sad to see since that was what saved the park in the early days...

 

[BillM]

Didn't even bother to save the Christmas decorations.

Didn't even bother to save the Christmas decorations.

If you saw them up close, you wouldn’t save them either lol
