It still will be a little funny that the train will be come through underneath the ride.

I love the "stacking" of rides that is so prominent at Disneyland.

Still wondering the odds of opening by December. 25% chance?

I think it would be a miss to open this much later than the start of the FY rollover near the start of October. Not an insider, just think that it would behoove the company to finally wrap up this 5 year long project asap. Try to get exterior work done before the really oppressive weather sets in.

Not if they can roll over some of this cost onto the next FY.

While a good point, it just makes me wonder how much 'cost' would actually be added next FY considering where the project is today. I mean every penny counts I guess, but still, there's a line I would think.

They still have theming to do and a ton of other things that will require money.

Well MK Tomorrowland does decent with that with the Peoplemover and elevated Astro Orbiter.

Didn't you all hear the recent announcement? There was a typo in the release schedule for Tron - It is scheduled to be open by WDW's *60th* anniversary, not the 50th. Small error, no big deal.

99% chance. It should be done by this summer. I’d guess a September 1 opening, and a July 1 opening for the railroad

Who are you?

Didn’t get a pic but there are walls up along the path to TRON and around the north wall of the Light and Power building. Looks like they’re getting ready to do something about that path. Not much they can do, though. Add 5 feet of width?

 

[James Alucobond]

Kinda hoping it's more about reworking the appearance of Light & Power. Wouldn't mind seeing the faux transmission towers removed and, ultimately, the interior redesigned with all of the gear detailing removed.

It looks nice from the PeopleMover though I wish they extended it to go through the Tron building.
