Web Cam Activity and Testing..Oh My!

I use these links and never have an archived picture.... Then again, the Breakers cam is archived at the moment... so, that isn't entirely true

"Thursday, March 17 2003, 2:58 PM, the greatest moment in rollercoaster construction history!

MDOmnis if it is a REALLY bad bottleneck, you could go out the resort gate and re-enter at the employee gate by wardrobe. That may be faster.

ONE freeway stamp a day... ONE

Blue trainis at the station. You have full view of it now!

If you look at the power tower web cam you can see the new fresh paved concret ( it is in the middle of the ride) Could it be for the lines? I think it is. What about you?

What's life without rollercoasters!!!

Yeah, those are for the queues.

------------------
What is most anticipated event of 2003? the debut of Dragster, the release of Metallica's new album, the release of Terminator 3, or the release of Matrix:Reloaded...tough call.

One other thing On the ground web cam why is there a cement truck there are they poring concret for a over flow queue or is it a pathway?

There is dummy of some sort on the train right now as it was coming around the turn around. This is encouraging!

The dummy is probably the g-force dummy. That would be awesome if they are going to start testing the hydrolics.

The moment of truth is almost upon us. :)

they have been testing the hydraulics for awhile now....but they havent fully launched it yet....DO IT NOW GOD DAMMIT DO IT NOW!!!!!!...........oh wait they just did.......hrmmm APRIL FOOLS!

Have they done the full pull through yet? Is that why the cranes are there? I can't imagine why they would set up a dummy unless they planned on launching it through the circuit.

they aren't doing a full pull through.....the only thing going up that tower is a train going 120 mph...and TWO DUMMIES!

maybe they are just two dummies, and I might be mistaken but isn't a pull through performed first to see if the train travels smoothly over the complete circuit. If something didn't line up right between the train and the track, I'd hate to see what the result would be at 120mph.

i just know that a quote in one of the interviews or journals or something that jasper said testing will include a partial pull through

just a note...webcam 3 is retarded basically you can see all the new garbage in the parking lot.....put it on top of TTD looking down at the launch and queues or whatever..

Monty said it himself:

"Testing will include a partial pull-through, and sending a train with a clearance template attached."

are Those trees next to the newly poured queue lines closest to the transfer track?

------------------
D/\MN GINA!!!!!!!!

I won't argue with you about that, I just found it hard to believe they wouldn't do a complete pull through first.

Does anyone know why they are making the one ride photo building wood? Why are they putting wood on the outside walls?

I think there will be some kind of theming on the photo building, Instead of the regular brick looking on ride buildings.
