It was a similar situation for the 11am timeslot yesterday too. We didn't arrive quite as early as a half hour before, but we got over to FF around 10:55am and it seemed like it had already been running with guests.

I'm not entirely sure. We asked the person at the exit gate when we were leaving why they had the entrance gates closed, and he just said they reached capacity and couldn't let anyone else in. It was just myself and my fiancée, and when we left two other people were let in. There were only two...

He's likely the engineering consultant firm's (VHB's) project manager for this project. VHB serves as BGW's site civil consultant, so they're the ones who design the site plans (not the structural, mechanical, or architectural plans though).

The site plan has been approved! BGW essentially just needs to obtain permits to begin construction at this point.

Those trains look gorgeous 😍

Well it's about damn time..

What future plans? They only do "landscaping" projects, remember?
