I hadn't even noticed the pic links before. WOW. Someone is in trouble - those are awesome!


First one....big a$$ pile of dirt. Looks like a pretty deep trench next to the sidewalk and handrail. I'm having trouble placing the location without a bigger perspective.

Second two, look like they were taking over the fence.

Nice find!

Looks like a masking wall they put up, perhaps to block the view from the train? Maybe there's a weak spot in the trees up there. :shrug:

welcome.. did you look at the twitpics? can't figure out how they got them..

Yea the one looking down towards TTF looks like they are actually ON the scaffolding behind the construction walls.

I would venture to say that this almost has to be someone who is actually working on the construction going on.

This does not bode well for this individual if that's the case... :lookaroun

Ahh yes. I always forget about the train. :hammer:

You're probably correct because when I first looked at them I thought they were more construction walls but couldn't figure out who would be able to see it from BEHIND FL. :lol:

They definitely don't go along with anything we've seen or heard for BatB, that's for sure. :)

Well Corrus was perhaps the highest ranked insider ever to be found on a Disney forum. You don't get much more inside than he was.

Shame that people make judgements about people without having anywhere near a fragment of a fact.

Oh, I think there are others, they just dont' post. Often.

not sure the best place to post new construction pics without creating a new thread every time... any suggestions? these were taken today. scroll down the pics and comments are at the bottom of the article.

OK construction pics continue to be interesting. Especially the fact that they are pouring cement just beyond the construction fences. It still appears the original plan is happening. :shrug:

Something does not add up here including the lack of rumors from the roller coaster community. They are always aware of new contracts/tech being developed yet not a peep.

All I know from what I see is that they are working on BatB and TLM. Maybe they are still in the planning stages. So I would just wait and see what's going to happen lol :)

I'm not speculating, I'm just saying there is a lot more happening than what the current conventional wisdom is out there. And this is the wrong forum for "wait and see". :lol:

Everything seems to be happening exactly as Disney said it would at D23. :shrug:

Where's Scott and his aerial photos when we need him!? It would be a lot easier to compare ongoing construction to the original plans with an overhead shot.

Hint, hint, Scott :)

This picture is the only picture taken "backstage" on the walk way behind the former Ariel's Grotto and above the tunnel entrance. Probably at the Cast backstage gate next to the Pinocchio bathrooms.

Some of the others were simply over the fence. Using a "Monopole" and your timer makes this type of shot easy but kind of random since you can't see it right away.
