It sure is taking them a long time to get the track in the air, a lot longer than yesterday.

    Any discussion that results in me looking at pictures of Nitro is one I am in favor of! And in saying that, I am on sound footing! Terpy, whose sign off line could be called a footer

I just looked at the webcam and still no new piece of track!! Let's hope this is NOT a common theme of this track rigging!!

I think that whole time we thought they wearn't doing anything they were actually putting up a piece of track. It looks like it. Half of it is off the webcam but then you see it come on at the top. So ,aybe thats what took so long.

I think the track that they're putting in now is the only track they've put in today.

Well I don't know but right now the webcam keeps changing positions. It goes to the splashdown and then it shows out in the trees.

^Yea it's Cycling now, first the station and brakes then the splashdown then the Woods then the area outside the Crypt.

Man this Webcam is entertaining!

Like I said the piece they are puuting in right now is the third piece! It even proves it when the webcam cycles to the splashdown. You can see that one piece is already in place and the other one is still out of position.

They're working on the hill after the splashdown and the vertical brake afterwards.

^^So is that "thing" sticking up from the ground in the wider-shot splashdown view actually lift hill track?!?

no i think that is part of the station track. hopefully they are about to install it.

No that is the break run track you see. The track right after the splashdown.

o. ok. well i just saw people in the boom lift. wonder what they are doing.

It looks like they got a great deal done, I wonder how much they will get done tomorrow!

You think this webcam is entertaining, you should have been at the park today! I was working our companys photo stand down by the international showplace, and every 15 minutes we are supposed to go outside and hold this sign telling people to view their photos. Usually it's a drag and I hate doing it but watching all the progress in the construction site made it awesome. I would come out with a mind set of staying out there for 10 minutes with this sign and 30 minutes later I would finally brake free from my trance and look at my watch to see how much time had passed. It was awesome!

First off, this is the first and the last time I will post in this thread. Second, if you guys continue to post every time the crane moves, this thread will break 6,000 in less than a week. I have no words for what I just read but wow......just wow.....

The only time they work are Monday - Thursday and that is it. So a lot of work will be done each day I hope.

Nice pics! Wish i could have been there to see them raise the first peice of track.
