Exciting news all around …

What are our insiders saying about long term projects (i.e. what will go where FITH is now?)

You beat me to it, MG - I was going to say the exact same thing.

I’m not sure - it’s not listed on the allergen page, but SDC is very good about addressing dietary needs.

Yes - and it's been widened.

I took my daughter to see it.  There is a low fence, but the tree is still “running”.

We were waiting for a tram at the end of the day Thursday and a parking attendant got to chatting.  He said when it's all said and done (likely next year), people will NOT be directed to a specific lot and can park wherever they want.  He also said the shuttles/trams will run one continuous loop rather than going to one specific stop.  He did confirm that there will be two underpasses - one for pedestrians and one for trams. 

I know employees don't always have accurate info, but I thought I'd pass it along with a grain of salt.

Here are a few shots of FITH 2.0. It’ll blend in really nicely with the existing Fireman’s Landing.

Here’s a pano of the new Flossies and seating area.  They were painting the building yellow and working on roofing before the rain moved in.

New concrete pad for the little swings in Fireman’s Landing.

New foundations in Lake Silver. Could these be for the return of REJOICE? They seem to be too spaced out for anything structural like a wider walkway so I’m am guessing decorative.

Here are two pics from yesterday of the new foundations.  I was wondering what they were for, too

Train crew had no ETA yesterday on when they might start operations

I see what you’re saying now - the app doesn’t list a year but the web version does.  Sorry!

For what it’s worth, the conductor at the station today said “a couple of weeks”.  I also saw an employee walking the tracks picking up branches.

I just noticed that the SDC app list the train’s operating season as March 16 - October 29.  Hopefully that’s a good sign that it’s returning this week.    🤞

There’s barely enough room for a queue let alone a gift shop and why would they take photos on a coaster that will be mainly in the dark.  Seriously?

Honest question - why the attitude, Swoosh?  Your information is entertaining and I appreciate your posts, but I just don’t see the need for foul language or belittling others.  This is a fan site.  We’re all here to share our love of SDC.  Cheers.

This feels a bit backwards… if I’m looking at it correctly, the load station and queue will be on the north / left side of the building, but the path opens from Fireman’s Landing on the south / right side.  Is that accurate?
