THY THREAD HAS BEEN RESURRECTED!?!? OMG!!!!

Only one month till you take it down? awww :/ I thought you said it was going to be up for like 4 years or so. Going to take a lot of work to take that down though. By the time you're done a century will have passed :).

I'm not done building yet.

Before you take it down I would more than anything love to see a video of a time lapsed day at the museum with the coaster running and all of the people viewing it.

Unfortunately that won't happen. Attendance changes so much each day, so there is no telling when to do this. I was planning on making a time-lapse of the breakdown, but it is most likely that my parents and I will just bring it back home in big chunks and deconstruct/sort the pieces at home.

The lift might not be able to hand it, but I guess just push it up the lift? Newton's third law, though, tells me it would be unfriendly to the supports. But I think gump should do it still! It would look awesome!!! Just the trains on the coaster? (20 car train)
Edit: I would imagine with all the sets gump has, the train would be as long as the lift :D.
Edit: Does anyone ever steal peices? It seems like you could just grab a blue rod and get outta there. Imagine if one of the visitors grabbed the transfer track section, pulled it, and then that part of the coaster went onto the floor... I would be very mad.

I'm not done building yet.
