Hopefully more track will arrive early tomorrow morning..

^^Well, the coaster is designed by Bolliger & Mabillard, which is located in Monthey, Switzerland. So I would assume that the trains would be made by the same company.
Unless someone else can say otherwise. :wink:

I'm going to estimate the track will be finished by February, at the rate they're going, as long as more track shows up, that is. :roll:

I anticipate track erection will be completed by the end of the month. I enjoyed the pics that Wormy posted, a nice retreat after a super busy weekend at work.

If more track arrives today, the double helix may be finished on Tuesday. I believe the entire track will be complete by January 22nd assuming more track arrives today.

What happen to the people who were adamant the coaster would not be finish by opening and that they were moving too slow??? Looks like its gonna be another episode of VH1's "where are they now" coaster addition??? :wave: :clap: :lolno:

:shock: I better keep an eye out for those trains. I only live about an hour from Monthey, so there's a chance I could see them on the highway one day. I figure it's pointless to try and go out and find them though as they could be making them anywhere in Switzerland.

So it looks like multiple truckloads of track arrived last night. I believe I see 3 but it is hard to tell because of the rain on the webcam. When the sun starts to come out we will be able to tell better. I think she'll be done by the end of the month.
