Yeah Ryan, the painting is looking cool! I can't believe how fast they've built that building in the second cam! It's amazing what they can do.

The train is off the transfer track and on the main circuit now. It looks liek they are starting to do somthing with it. Hopefully testing will start.

Not testing but the pull through, am I right? anyways, can anyone else see that they have already painted the roof of the station white? You can just barely see it in cam2 along the edge of the top. I never noticed it before

I doubt they would be doing the pull-through with the full train.

The train that's on the track has been moved from being in the Loading Station to the turn just behind it.

I wonder what they could be doing with it there?

Sorry Big D but i think you might be wrong about the whole not doing the pull-through with the whole train. If you're right about them doing clearance testing than they also might be getting ready to do a full train pull-through.

Just Speculation

They will most likely use the 2 cars that they have seperatly for the pull through. It would be stupid to do one with the whole train. Adds more weight and is useless.

Sorry. I'm wrong, you're right. I just checked with the pictures that CP has of the pull-through
they did on MF and you can see that they used just the first few rows of seats. But i still can't wait to see a train running through TTD even if it is just the first few rows!

It looks like there's an entire train sitting on the track right before the station.

It does, but if that is an entire train then there is still stuff to be done to it. The big wing isn't on the back, and it's also hard to tell if those big wheels are. I'm thinking that is a whole train sans the last car (which they are still working on).

I was just going to say that about the trains. I was getting worried there wouldn't be the spoiler and big wheels on the rear. I guess maybe that will be added later.

Yes Majin, none of the theming is on the train yet. The back of the last car is just empty.

I still don't understand why so many people thing its May already. There is still a month and a half and theming is usually done last.

Mr. Jasper himself said there will NOT be a FULL pull-through, only a partial..

What more assurance do you need?

What I think he means by that is they won't be pulling through the whole track just portions of the track.
