Fantasyland Expansion - Part 2

The cars don't appear to be swinging... ?!?

The lead car does appear to be a little off of perpendicular to the track. I think they do swing albeit not very much

I'm guessing the swinging will be more intense/noticeable when there are people in the cars. No weight means not much swinging. Unless the swinging is controlled a la X2 in which case that's a bummer.

From the Disney Parks Blog:

The quick-service restaurant, created to look like a comfy lodge in the English countryside, will be a great place to escape from the Florida sun.

Beauty and the beast is set in France.... Where does England come into it?

They've said all along the RV's swing freely along with the ride so i'd assume it has to do with lack of weight.

Or maybe there is an option to lock them from swaying for testing purposed or whatnot. :shrug:

I'm digging that rockwork. Yes, it's taken ridiculously too long, but the themeing is pretty impressive.

I suspect the RVs will swing quite a bit more than what they've shown in testing.

When there are people in them they definitely will, that's just basic physics; what I wanna know is if I get a fat friend to come with me, can we tip sideways

Got to take that up with the Disney Parks Blog people. They are the brainless wonders who posted that. I simply copied and pasted.

I'm surprised they didn't accidentally describe the drink as Butterbeer also.

It's a Miracle... but I was there tonight at 9 PM and I witnessed actual workers working on 7 Dwarves... I know. I tried to get a pic, but cellphone didn't do it justice, but hopefully my friend e-mails me the pic he got.

Let me guess........they were working on rock work! Disney makes some of the best fake rocks in the business!!! You can't beat their restrooms or trash cans either.:thumbs:

I get it, but these restroom and trashcan jokes are older than Walt himself.....

And how sad is it that to this day they still apply? :look:

 

[Brervixen]

There was lots of activity on the mountain yesterday morning, at least 6 people working!

Have the jokes about benches reached its end as well?
