Interesting!

Hey, it's the Riviera Station in Legos

 

[Minthorne]

Interesting!

First images of gondolas with passengers!!
Everything is awesome.

Interesting!

I consider it cheating if the flywheels aren't made out of LEGO blocks.

Or the haul line.

Looking forward to seeing your working Lego model soon then.

No. They're going to use Vince and Larry first:

But they will replace all the quartered circles on them with temperature sensitive indicators to tell the engineers how much they cook. ;-)

 

[Disone]

I fixed your error.

Thank you. It was a half-baked plan in the first place.

Theming leaves something a lot to be desired.

But they are lego parts

Photo update as of Thursday, April 11, 2019. For several days now, 5 unwrapped gondolas in a row have been seen on the Hollywood Studios and Caribbean Beach resort line.

At the Epcot Skyliner station, painting the entry and exit decorative structures has begun.

That black object on the bottom of each gondola is the drip tray.

That black object on the bottom of each gondola is the drip tray.

It's the gap filler between the gondola doorway and the platform.

As I type, they are planting very large flowering bushes, fronds, and low flowers around the base of the CBR towers. The tall tower in Jamaica is now getting the treatment while the tower between Aruba and Jamaica has finished landscape already.

Just too bad they didn't paint the pole go away green or a nice pastel color when they erected it like the two or three by epcot

I'm super excited for this!!

Yes indeed, that too. It's great engineering when one object can be multi-functional!

 

[flynnibus]

makes you wonder why the POP station still has so much finishing work left to be done.. when they don't seem to be actively working on it.

 

[joelkfla]

Cool.

Unload time: from doors fully open until start of acceleration into turn = about 30 secs.

One of the big things left is the railings which they probably can't do while the line is running.
