So they’re already starting marketing for a ride that track hasn’t even been installed yet just doesn’t make sense to me like track work has to start in the next few weeks

None of your comments make sense to anyone

You do realise this is a common thing to do right? Disney and universal have announced attractions years before anything happens. Sea World announced the New Atlantis back in 2019, well before construction began and they are still going

Hell, Seaworld announced they were getting gorillas and hippos before they even realised you couldn’t just buy them from the Special Buys section at Aldi...

OMG yay for a billboard that doesn’t put a keyword in cursive font in a non contrasting colour to the background! 👏🏻 Good job

[themagician]

For those wondering if the steam train is still at the park or not... yes it is (to the left of the blue maintenance vehicle)

And, why don’t DW open up these stairs to access the Giant Drop? Because of the construction you can access the usual stairs at the entrance to the ride. So you need to head up the spaghetti ramps, but why not keep these stairs open for access too?

Too many slats.

"Starting with first of three launches"

Doesn't it swing launch over the same track?

Shhh

the social media team don’t understand ride composition. Triple launch = 3 separate launches to them. 

[Jdude95]

Technically that track is the first, second and third launch track 

[themagician]

At least they don’t post about rides that are closed for maintenance... unlike VRTP

[mssveattck]

Looks as though they've installed all the LSM track for the launch as well as the switch track.
