Man... that long narrow building attached to the train station that comes across the bottom of that picture; you think that's for the queue?

Think or know

And so is the half of level one within the main building (KC)

Not sure if I've missed it or what, but any idea what the ride system is like? The photo kinda looks like kuka, is it something similar?

Most of the speculation at this point centers on a relatively slow-moving coaster/dark ride hybrid with at least one freefall drop element, similar to Th13teen or Verbolten.

No free fall section, but there will be a teeter totter...

Awesome, thanks!

Really? I could have sworn seeing a leaked construction plan of some sort that showed a drop element or some kind of elevator.

The elevator could go up.

 

[Bairstow]

Ok, here we go. Don't see the drop elements mentioned, so I'm not sure where I got that from.

FYI that queue location is all wrong, not even close. The only part of the queue that's even remotely close to that labeled location is the dual elevator shafts that take you down to the vault.

 

[TubaGeek]

The heads and sleeping passengers are what you should be looking for here.

I've been anticipating a Donkey-style shrunken head since the Knight Bus came into play.

Saw the construction last week and all I can say is that this is going to be enormous. Couldn't believe the scale of the buildings.

Largest most powerful Kuka arm ever utilized in a themepark attraction is coming to Gringotts...
