That gives some scale. It is a huge building.
Volumetrically, yes; however, I expected a larger footprint for a coaster.

Indoor coasters are never that long. For example, the WDW Space Mountain tracks are about 3200 feet and RnRC is 3400 feet. The longest indoor coaster in the world is about 3800 feet. Based on Disney's comments this will be one of the longest, I expect it will fall between 3400 and 3800. If you aren't making long straight tracks and drops, never a hallmark of indoor coasters, you can fit a whole lot of track in a space as large as that building. There are 2 3200 foot tracks in Space Mountain. I doubt there will be double tracks in this building.Volumetrically, yes; however, I expected a larger footprint for a coaster.
If I am not mistaken I think there will be a double load though. Obviously doesn't affect the track length but something to note.Indoor coasters are never that long.

Yes I believe that is part of the queue.I think this was assumed previously, but we're pretty sure that the area under the berm immediately to the south of Muppets is the queue area for Battle Escape?
I'm gonna guess the large holes in the concrete (that are getting covered up with rock work now) will be mounting places for large screens for the queue?
Less rock work than Pandora? Not sure I am looking at the same thing. They have a lot to do yet.Seems to be coming along nicely. Looks like there will be less "rock" work than I envisioned. Certainly less than Pandora. So that should make it a little easier on the construction timeline(I hope).

That explains it yet. I incorrectly assumed they had started it all. Haven't seen good california pictures to compare.Yep. They haven't even started on the farther back rock work on top of the ride buildings like at DL.
