Seems like it would make some sense, if they had to close it anyway

Originally Posted By FerretAfros Although the infrastructure upgrades may not be particularly glamorous, I'm really excited to see how they work out. This is exactly the sort of stuff that I do professionally, so I'll be curious to see what exactly comes from it I'm surprised that they need so much additional roadway capacity. When I was there a few years ago it seemed like the rail was plenty busy but the roads were all completely empty. Maybe they're just looking out for future growth

Originally Posted By FerretAfros Ah that makes sense! I didn't realize that the "I want you" poster was recognized internationally! I thought it was advertising some upcoming US-patriotic event, which didn't make any sense for the European park, but this is actually pretty clever I'm excited to see all the changes that are coming in the next few years!
