I checked out the refurb last week. Track has tape on it for protection in work zones. So there's no track work going on.

Overall no but if you look at the below picture there is something going on with that bridge and looks like it might be a small section of replaced track.

Oh I did get to ride the train and see the other side, I tried to get some pictures but it was just dark enough that I couldn't get a good image without a blury picture and the train moving. It just looked like the rest of them with tape over the track and freshly painted..

Next month, I think mid month is when it's in MDE app as and I heard fastpasses are out for near the end of november to get.

I had a fast pass for December 5th just get cancelled so I think they are extending the refurb. .

Ok I just went into MDE to change the fast pass because when they cancelled mine they replaced it with space mt which we didn't want. It let me reschedule my big thunder pass. What is going on?

Strange...

Whew glad I read it let you reschedule.....helps me keep a wee bit of hope yet.....just maybe someone told them it would be open Nov 6th and they thought Dec 6th and cancelled all fp's made prior but realized their error.....yes I know it's quite a stretch but.... will keep on spreading the pixie dust......open open open early......

Thanks so much for the great photo report! I thought I read somewhere they are putting in the fireworks scene similar to what we see at DLR, any truth to that?

 

[Kirstie Harris]

Thanks for sharing the photos with us! It's great to see what is happening with the refurb!

REALLY hoping this opens on time (or earlier). We are doing Epcot on the 19th and hoping to hit BTMRR late that day...MK open till midnight!

One of the refurbs was just extended a month and I think it was BMTRR. I could be wrong though.

Any word if they were still adding the special effects that the Disneyland version has?

That's a bummer. The DL effects really are fantastic.

Any updates this week? Hope progress its rapidly evolving......are any posters there right now to investigate?

It looks about the same, maybe a little less scafolding, I think it's on target to be opened in 2-3 weeks still. I know fastpasses have started to appear for around the 17thish.

Some of the lighting is back, the smoking corner is no longer completely dark.
