Is Kings Island Building a B&M for 2014?

This afternoon we had an interesting anonymous tip on our Twitter feed.

After we re-tweeted Kings Island’s cryptic “670200029” tweet, “Kings Island Expo” tweeted us a link to this picture:

The tweet read: “It is the bar code on a track, and support elements at the B&M plant!”

Although most of the track is not visible, the bar code is nearly identical to that of other B&M coasters. See an example of Sheikra’s bar code here.

I’m tempted to think that the “WI” in the part number may suggest a “WIng coaster.” This photo posted on Theme Park Review shows a B&M wing coaster destined for China. It has a similar part number.

This is all speculation, but I think the odds are increasing that we will see a new B&M rising from Kings Island in 2014.
