I wonder why the trains don't have their "Skin" yet.
Wing Coasters seem to have those added after the trains are on to avoid getting damaged while the cars are being lifted.
They probably couldn't lift the trains with the "skin" on, or they just didn't want to possibly damage them while putting the trains on the track.

They won't be testing for a while so I guess there's no point in putting them out in the elements.

The transfer track has moved over to storage track 1 (aka. the long one and the one with trains on it). We'll see what happens.
Maybe they were just testing it, it has moved back to the original position. Actually, aren't they supposed to start actual testing later this week or is it next week?

I wonder what's happening. It appears that there are just a few of the cars sitting out on the brake run right now. They're not testing since not the entire train is there. This is really weird.

I'm sure its nothing to worry about. Whether its "weird" to you or any one else is no big deal. I'm sure there is a reason they are doing it. Just because it isn't what you thought they would do, doesn't make it "weird" or unnecessary.

I know there's a reason to it. I just don't know what it is since I've never heard of this being done before.

Okay, so far I haven't been one of those that is constantly hitting refresh on the webcam, but I can't stop now. The 2-car train is sitting at the base of the lift hill.
How did I not even notice it move? I have the webcams up in another window and I just glance at it every once in a while, but I never noticed that the cars moved. This means we're getting even closer to full circiut testing!

They could be doing something with the various prox sensors/switches? I think they have to adjust them to coincide with the sensors on the trains. That's just my guess.
