Originally Posted By ImgineerBob Sorry Bella but the elevators are long gone, and most of the track is dilapitated. it would be much cheaper for disney to rebuild it from Scratch at this point.
Originally Posted By Scutr Thanks for that, Hans. Very cool! Yes, we have, in fact, fallen behind and the ongoing political gridlock in Washington is not going to allow that to change

ImgineerBob, I am well aware that they'll have to re-do the whole thing from scratch. That's inevitable should they ever decide to actually DO SOMETHING with the track. I say, whatever they've got to do to put up something new and awesome.

If you put your feet right next to the edge, you got a little "foot massage." Just one of those little extras DL would give you for your D-ticket!
