Chill out! Maxwell is a really nice guy if his chain isn`t yanked in the wrong direction.

Be nice and I`ll give the Mountain a wave in person for you tomorrow.

Can`t believe I said that. Must be excitement. Airport here I come :D
Have a blast, Martin! :D


SOOOO looking forward to that TR!

Just rode TTA. Woman's voice was on the intercom addressing "those in the building" about "car b on the track." Obviously she was addressing those who are refurbishing the mountain. The lift chain was running, which hasn't been the case during the last few days when I went through. Unfortunately, I didn.t get to see any actual vehicles running on the track.

Woah! This is so odd...Why is Disney/WDI doing work in front of guests?


I mean...good for US, but bad for the show...:shrug:

Would you rather TTA still be down? Then they wouldn't be ruining the show, but the park would be down an attraction again.

Did you not read my post? Said I was happy it was happening. That's what I meant by "It's good for US". Doesn't detract from the fact that it's bad show.

I'm glad TTA is open! We get more of a clue to what's happening in space mountain.

Speaking of space mountain, we need someone of these boards to ride TTA about 30 times in a row between now and november to get some pictures and videos of what's happening inside space mountain.PLEASE! :D

We may have been on the same train!:lol:

I rode again immediately after and the woman's voice said that there was a car entering the lift hill (sadly, after I passed the lift hill...) and a car entering unload. :D

VERY cool stuff. Sounds like they are seeing what's where and when.


Music related?:lookaroun

Bad Show is a Cast Member talking on a cell phone while leaning on a rail and yelling to other Cast Members.

Construction, and reimagineering visible to Guests is an exciting and promising look at what's to come.

Just listen to Tony Baxter or John Lasseter when they talk about peeking behind construction walls, preview centers, and how excited they are about making the construction at DCA something not hidden or encumbered.

In fact, the reluctance to let the public in on exciting additions Pre-2006 have kept us from getting new expansions, and new attractions at WDW.

I'm a firm believer in "Lowering the walls" and letting the work be done very publicly, it drives interest.
:D

Very true. I like it too....Get's my hyped.


But there is something to be said for preserving a show illusion.:shrug:

Music related?

You clearly haven't spent much time around Roller Coasters, have you?

:lol:

When a Coaster is in Test & Adjust in this phase of construction, or is Cycling trains, You have to vocally warn the Zones that there are Trains in Motion. Such as:

"Your attention: This attraction will begin cycling, please be aware and stay out of the Ride Motion Envelope and Track Areas."

These PA announcements are nothing special, just warning that the Ride is in Motion and to not wander around.

I do love them though.
:D

No.

*Points at face at watch*

I know. Now.

:lol:

I'm not denying Audio, just saying I know PA Coaster and Ride testing and cycling procedures to tell you what "Train entering Lift Hill" over a PA Means.

Also (If there is Audio) You can't sync it by watching, there'd need to be a Person onboard with the Computer equipment, and they'd be riding it hundreds of times. This was just one Train, empty, cycling on the system. I Guarantee you with all certainty that it's Cycling warnings, not some audio test.

what did the car look like?

Exactly like this one, but with people sitting in front of me (I stayed in my seat for a second ride).
