If you look on the archived photos of the Cleveland cam at 2:37 pm there is a train on the second to last piece of white track going up the tower. Also, at 1:44 pm there appears to be the yellow countdown lights on but not the green. The top two right yellow ones don't see to be on either. Is it just my eyes?

2004 Stats coming........after May 8th

I seen DT testing.........................HA,HA Kidding!! AH-No

Millie:20
TTD: 1 front row! GO BUCKS!!
CP&LE RR: 150

I can say for those who are worried, They have been testing TTD everyday since 4/28. Even in a good rain they were testing it. I do know however that it's not making it over too much. but I'm sure they will have that solved by this weekend.

power tower's testing right now on the cleveland cam, and i just saw the countdown lights lit up on dragster on cedar points webcam

2003: Trips to CP:3
Dragster:0, Wicked Twister:6, Millennium Force:7, Mantis:3, Raptor:5, Mean Streak:1, Disaster Transport:3, Magnum:1, Iron Dragon:2, Gemini:2, Power Tower:9

I believe the reason for the rollbacks is because it's still to cold. If I remember right, one of the reasons for rollbacks is a cold track on a cold day. So far they have been testing ttd in 40-50° weather and if that aint making the track cold then what is. But look at the bright side, at least it's runnung better.

Just turned on the Cleveland Cam for a few seconds and happened to see a TTD rollback (3:54 PM)..It was close though...Im sure when its warmer it will be just fine!

**Edit** - 3:58 PM....a train just cleared the tophat...and another rolled back...bottom line...if you want to watch TTD testing...get on Cleveland Cam now...

I hate to say GreatEscape...but thats a good thing...the more it clears the tophat, the uptime will be greater, the interval at which they can launch trains will be smaller, concordantly the capacity of the ride will be greater, ergo the general public will be much happier....and now I am out of my philisophical cave...

I just saw Dragster launching three trains in a row around 4:15 and they all made it over at about 7 mph at the tophat.

Dragster: 7 times
MIllennium Force: too many to count

Were you holding a radar gun to the screen???

I was at the park around 4pm getting my season pass and I saw about 3 trains make it over the tophat while waiting in line.. Things are looking good for this weekend! :-)

Did you happen to see anything else testing? Raptor maybe..

------------------
MF, WT and TTD are the best @ CP

5 days until opening day!

I only saw TTD and the downside of Power Tower was testing too. Nothing else looked like it was running that I could tell.
