There are at least two trains on the track right now. If you look in the PT Cam the first transfer track is empty I think.

The fastest and tallest coaster ever built on the Planet!!

I must say, the photo booth is lookin really cool

How about the size of the queue area? It's big for obvious reasons. I'd like to know how it compares to others, namely Millennium Force.

If they keep the PT cam right there it will be great to see how big the lines are before making a trip.

I think the queue honestly will be better. You can see the whole ride, and pretty much watch people's expressions waiting for the launch, launching, or cmoing down the hill, or yet more, in the brakes. Wherever you are you will most likly be able to see something pretty close....and besides, you can just watch the coaster go over and over again, bulding your anticipation.

OMG! The Space Spiral is leaning!!" Must be the weight of that new air conditioning system everyone keeps hypothesizing about...

In the live shot of the ground cam there is a very bright light in front of the station. It finally gives a little more light as to what is on the platform for the station now.

This is kind of out there.....but could they work at night or even test?¿?¿? I dont know why they world want to keep the testing or construction secret.....I dont beleieve they would ever do this but it is just a thought.

Does it stop at 420 feet in the air.......?¿?
No you still have to spiral down

They'll probably be working into the night from now on. They are nearing the end and have to work more to make sure everything gets done on time.

I would think, at this point, workers are busy 7 days a week, well into the evening hours. It really won't be that long before shifts are running around the clock.

The station isnt really lit up, Its just some external flood lights they put to illuminate the station and the area around it.

Wow if you look at the beach web cam they have 4 cement trucks pulling up and are ready to put down concret. Where would they be putting 4 trucks of concret at?

They're pouring footers for next years 550 foot tall flying coaster, of course!

I would have to believe that it is the concrete for around the On Ride Photo and the exit for the ride.

The best thing about Six Flags "Worlds of Adventure" is that Cedar Point is nearby!

This has been answered now...they are rebuilding the midway.

I don't know if anyone's up, but the top thrill dragster cam isn't up and the links are all not working as well, it's just top thrill, do you think it's a web related problem or is it intentional?

As much as I don't support the war, I pray for our troops and for a swift end to the violence.

im awake of course, as always...I just noticed that the links on cedarpoint.com don't work right now for TTD.....hrmmmm hopefully there are some surprises.....

If you noticed, the url for the ttd area has been changed. Maybe they're moving/renaming things to match the new url.
