Those supports connecting load beam and track are even gorgeous. It is such a good touch.
It looks like a parking lot for sure (I know past projects have used the employee lot to stage - i.e. Verbolten). But that doesn't make logistic sense, because there is not really a good connection to the Pantheon site from there.. Does anyone know how they staged AC ages ago? I would have to guess this would be similar, since they would probably use the same service road as AC.
I wanna say that AC was staged in the France lot, but I was 6 at the time, so I may not be remembering it correctly. Most of the recent projects were staged in the employee lot, even Tempesto. Those pics almost look like England, but it could also be in the backarea near Entertainment and the warehouse (where VB was).
Ah yeah, Tempesto, that's a thing.. ? I guess that's probably the most comparable to this project in so far as staging location.
Also, were the main parking lot entrance/I-64 ramps even built/in-service when they built AC? That would have definitely made a big difference in staging from the Germany lot, I could imagine.

I don't think so. I believe that was 01-02 maybe? Again, I was young, but I do remember when the now service/employee entrance was the main entrance. Honestly, I am a little surprised that photos did not surface here first with how many team members are on the forums. Or maybe the track just came in yesterday/this morning.
The track is definitely sitting in the employee parking lot. That's the typical staging area. The park might have used a different parking lot for AC but back then the park was closed from November until March so there was no need for parking over there. Like @ControlsEE said tempesto was staged in the TM lot because it's the most convenient
The park isn't open during the week so the number of TMs there until today has been very minimal. Most of the people who were there are admin people who know better than to take pictures in back areas and post them on the internet. My guess would that it was delivered yesterday

My logic was that if it has been sitting there since last weekend, somebody would have taken at least a picture and sent it to Zach. Sounds like the park took pics soon after getting the delivery.
I know I'm agreeing with you that it had to have come at some point during this week. The park probably chose today to share the picture because they knew TMs were working today and they wanted to share the pics first
Damn that Gold looks amazing. I liked the color scheme but that looks even better than I expected. This coaster is going to be gorgeous ?
I dunno, probably a rip-off of parkfans.
