I think the orange route would be less complicated (and cost less too) so that would be my vote seeing as Hall of Presidents might not ride past during the animatronics portion (the best part imo)

Making the TTA (WEDway) Major League
- Thread starter Skipper2
- Start date
I was thinking the same, it would be hit or miss. It also avoids being near the fireworks air launchers as the TTA would be below that roofline.

Me too
Ok so I want to copy DL a little with some new track detail on the DRR, and I want the Grand Canyon display, I also want the Rockies. So to get the details I want I need a big building with unique features. DRR and TTA will both pass through but in opposite directions. The layout for the two prevents one from obstructing the others view inside the display building. One the exterior a wood reinforced rock face is added similar to the rock-work added to RA/DRR in DL recently. For MK though the DRR will be able to see into and out of the building because the building will be styled to look like a railroad shed tunnel open along the side facing RA. Hard to explain but the pictures should help. Haven't made the Rockies building but it will be the same and directly attached to the Grand Canyon bldg.

If I did have something to criticize I would...but it's really well done! Is this done in Sketch-Up? If so @Voxel you have some good competition!

Thought so - you have quite a talent for it!
Credit to others...I didn't make any new models, all I did was trim some and merge some. Other people made the original models I just modified them. One more note and this one will come back to bite me in later projects. Every model I found was in a different scale....so I just eyeballed it. If I put these against any know properly scaled item it will show as gargantuan or super tiny. I haven't figure out how to apply scale sizing across imported models yet.

I was trying to figure out how to get the TTA over the RA by the RR pivot bridge, I thought a tall bridge to let the Belle clear underneath, a whole lot of problems with that idea. So back to drawing board, or in this case back to the DRR. I decided I will just install another pivot bridge. They don't get used very often so there should be no problem with maintenance issues for the Linear Induction System since it will only get disconnected once in a blue moon. Simpler than a large tall structure despite the pivoting part, and much easier to theme to match Frontierland. A drawbridge is also an option.

I wish I could help more... So far you have everything under control. Great job!
No problems, this is fun work for me.
My college age kids just gave me what I think is a pretty cool idea. (The pixar IP adverse in the MK can close your ears and eyes. LOL) Since I wanted to have the food delivered by automation/robot they suggested having EVA deliver the tabletop with the food and have WALL-E come clean it up just like he does in the movie.
Reach the arms out and pull the entire table top in.
Might even be able to have some video screens of MO scrubbing away at the table tops as a joke.
Of course this is all brought to you by Buy & Large. I just realized this whole ride and food concept was done by B&L first (I guess I'll be paying royalties).
This character pair of EVA & WALL-E would work in TL. What characters do you suggest for Fantasyland, Frontierland and Adventureland?
Since I hated having Iago in the Tiki's a while back I think he needs to be punished into table cleaning service like MO (but muzzled).
So what pairs/trio of characters need to do delivery and take away in each land?

That will actually be a joke in Sorcerer's Apprentice -- yes it was awful
Hmm so it looks like you have Adventureland covered pretty humorously, staying with the cartoon characters maybe Brer Fox and Brer Bear for Frontierland?
Liberty Square - the hitchhiking ghosts?
Fantasyland - Could be a nice tie in to the never build Villains Land to have the Fantasyland Villains serve the food -- Captain Hook and Gaston (two of the main villains in the land)
