Well it looks like 2012 will usher in a new coaster for Hershey Park.
Powder Blue Coaster Supports have started arriving at the park.
Photos Courtesy of PaCoasternews.com Place your bets on what this coaster will be.
Considering the park has a launch coaster already from Intamin and a Beyond 90* Coaster (also from Intamin)

Guess I can plan for 2013 for it to be running right.

Greetings, I figure I should chime in here because I just moved to SFGAm home park territory from Hersheypark territory so I have been following this project closely.
The blue prints for the coaster are already out there because they were presented in their application packet to the town board and the DEP:

The viral marketing sites for the ride are:
