Awesome,

Guess you are right, because its long and straight :-D

Btw, if you take a closer look the track appears to be slightly tilted and start left of the shed between those supports. Maybe this is our 2nd launch? (because it goes between the supports)

Are you sure thats track? ;)

Are you sure thats a shed? ;)

Really, I think the shed is by the track instead of the other way around. ;)

I think this is the midcourse launch, looks like it's coming out through those supports.

SInce that's the electrical building, the track will probably go right beside it, not through it.

I don't think the track is going through the building, seems too short...but its hard to tell

Thanks to whoever made that mock up, i added the launch track.

But im wondering.. why is it this long? they want to send the track right into the helix after launch.. or is it going straight up.. and leave its current footers? :-D

Oh, and sorry for the bad paint job, dont have Ps here ^^

Oh, and thats the next question, if it doenst leave its footprint.. will it go left or right (1 or 2)... lots of things stay uncertain..

If you look at the track where it would be coming out you can tell its behind. If its going through it would be coming out of the roof.

Anyone else think that the "bottom" track, the straight piece we're talking about now, is a mid course launch from the bottom level of the station, with the loading station feeding straight into a LIM lift hill? Just seems likely at this point.

It only makes sense that the launch track would be close to the electrical building.

The track will turn left after that straight section, this is where it will head over the pond.

Very likely, but we'll know for sure on September 7th
