Yeah...they literally have to check every inch of track.

As far as B&M...I vaguely remember hearing something about how they check their clearance envelopes virtually and that they have enough confidence to just send a train once it's ready. I cannot confirm that though...

Another reason for these tests are the fins beneath the train. They need to ensure there’s no clipping on the cross ties that may destroy the train and damage the track. An example of this is Intamin had to cut and weld some notches into the drop out of the station on Th13teen due to fins clipping the cross ties.

So is the pull through test nearly finished then? I take it now we'll se testing next week/week after.

I'm getting a few Altair vibes from this project.

I'm not a fan of staircases in queuelines but I'm liking the sci-fi style they're going for inside. Also really exciting to see the full train on the track.

I love the style of the train, and in general the ride itself.

Sci-fi themes sometimes run the risk of feeling too clinical for me (see Star Trek at Movie Park), but this seems to be hitting the nail on the head for me!
