You mean it will not open on May 28th as they say? it will stay closed until August 31st? Shit, i already have 5 attractions closed during my trip

Hopefully it's a sign of something more than just a refurbishment...

Well let's all cross our fingers for this being a sign of more than just a refurbishment... If they could make this attraction as immersive as the first time you go into Catastrophe Canyon then it could be an amazing attraction. I know they won't be doing this now, but if they could just make the first steps towards this it would be huge in my opinion.

*Will be monitoring this topic*

I noticed in a pic in the TSPL topic that they had taken up a lof of the tarmac around TSPL. It hadn't been there long so shouldn't need relaying already....

Edit: Here it be....

Juding by this image uploaded to DCP's facebook page earlier today that states a queue time of 25 minutes for the STT, I'd say it is back open :?

It did open judging by photos on Disney Central Plaza. Catastrophe Canyon has been refurbished and cleaned out, but no other changes.

toritinker · May 31, 2010, 05:53:02 PM

i really enjoy this ride and can't wait to do it again in august!!! I had hoped there would be more changed though....

It is reopened, and although CC has been repainted, there were no earthquake effects on the tram really, and it was very disappointing. Also the screens were not used much, and 2 cars in each tram were left empty. Very disappointing after a 60 min wait. Hopefully it was just a fluke. You can see RC and the Zig Zag spin from it though

never2old · June 22, 2010, 04:25:02 PM

We did it just over 10 days ago. As davewasbaloo says, other than the fresh coat of red paint in the truck, not much change.

The screens were working OK for us, though, and the earthquake was good. We were seated in the first car, and they had left the last row empty (I was sitting in the row before last). When the water came down, we understood why... It went straight through the last row, hit the wall behind and came back for us... It took my a few moments to understand how I got so wet when I was sitting on the far right of the row (so not facing the earthquake scene). For us it was surprising, but I'm not sure what would have happenned to anyone sitting in that last row. That water cames down pretty fast :shock:
