TTD testing right Now

Man, I have a pic of it coming back on the return track after a full run, but I have no way to post it. Can anybody help?

Correct me if im wrong. but it looks like on CP's homepage-at the top of TTD It looks either like a train or a catwalk.

It is a train, but it is a computer graphic picture. It is a 3d sculpture of it. So it is not a picture of TTD testing....even though it is.

Ramona, that's actually a Photoshopped picture of one of Xcelerator's trains. They took it and threw it on the TTD image, which I believe is computer-generated.

i have a picture of TTD and all of the trains on the transfer track are gone, besides one... Does this mean something?? maybe tom. there gonna test all of them so it will be easier for us to see it on the top hat and stuff. Haux, thanks for the information..i didn't know that...that is cool

Can the train even make it to the top?

I mean, thats a major step for roller coasters, we fried the Japenese, since they try to make better ones than us....

Hmmm, where did they go? I mean there is one on the turn to the station, but I see no others, are my eyes deceiving me?

Ok, I know that I don't have any proof to back this up. I went outside to smoke I saw the train make a full circuit. It goes up the hill pretty fast, then it hangs up on the top hat for a couple seconds almost as if it won't go over, and finally comes all the way around. IMO they will have to speed it up a bit when it is fully loaded or the extra weight will make it very difficult to complete the pass.

yea i believe you flash, it's quite obvious it is working now, and thanks rctycoon2k, that was cool that animation thingy. As for the trains, where did they go? there are none on the transfer track, and none which i can see on the actual track!

As for speeding it up, i don't think they will have to because heavier trains go higher (newton 2nd law?)

Yeah you may be onto something with the laws of motion. I just hope it can temporarily overcome the law of gravity.

No, the train can't make it to the top. The other side of the top hat is there for support and decoration.

What about "frying" the Japanese? They just made record-breakers. I don't think they were trying to make "better" ones than the US has. Besides, it's all a matter of opinion which is better than the other.
