Diagon Alley Soft Opening Watch

[khelwig88]

A lot of action at both train stations today. Main entrance to Hogsmead is closed along with a lot of TMS milling about. Any news on maybe a Hogwarts Express opening?

Pretty good. Only question mark I'd have would be Gringotts.

So anyone think that the 4th of june will be the construction crew preview night? Studios is closing early that night...

 

[freediverdude]

Why did they have to wall off the entrance to Hogsmeade like that? I bet there's some confused guests today.

It looks like there was a mock service / TM training going on at the station located right there.

I was there today. It was pretty chaotic (though I've seen worse lol). Obviously they had the bridge from JP to Lost Continent open (the one used to bypass construction of Hogsmeade). First time I've seen it open in a while...

You guys remember how the 7DMT opened?

For 15 minutes one morning?

Media event followed by softs, then grand opening?

Or that...

 

[UNIrd]

So no one will get in until after the media preview..

Studios is closing due to a private event. Nothing serious, but Potter training will probably be happening then just because.

Doubt this.

 

[Quint]

Unless everything is at sixes and sevens, I'd say those numbers would be very possible.

 

[UNIrd]

Doubt this.

If he's saying it's going down like Mine Train, that's how it happened.

 

[freediverdude]

Mine train didn't do any softs at all until a week before grand opening, so this would seem unlikely, but who knows.

Maybe that's what he means?
