I’ve heard it’s iron maiden..

Ok, a few shots from today.

First we can see what the concrete posts for the railing along the water look like.

I don't think we have talked about this building. It is in the middle of the spaghetti bowl.

New track.

Notasaur!

Doesn't matter if it's a dinosaur rock or not...I made you talk about it. That's what this forum is for. Speculation. Maybe at the peak of the rock work there's going to be a barbasol can?...or maybe not? Who knows? But you're thinking about it...

Maybe not a barbasol can but maybe the infamous Gatorade/Powerade bottle makes a reappearance?

That looks like it's the cage on the first launch that Alicia mentioned it, you can see it in the shot looking down the launch in Dan's latest video

IMO, I feel like what we're seeing isn't a dinosaur. Its probably just a weirdly shaped rock. and, I feel like that steel structure maybe are the cages with gates from Jurassic Park/World that open up and lead you into the paddock. So, I'm still getting the impression that the ride may be us getting a tour of the Ingen raptor facility then something goes awry.

I wonder if they're waiting on a larger crane to finish the top hat

They took out the one they had.

Thanks @RollermanDan for that tidbit. I saw him in the park yesterday. He should have an update up sometime today.

Perhaps because they need an even bigger one?

Well it's certain that a crane will be needed, and as of two days ago, there wasn't any crane whatsoever in that area. Best guess is sometime this week. I believe the capacity of the cranes they have on site were exceeded... except the one in the spaghetti bowl area which is out of range. So you'll see it this week and they'll bring in a crane just for the top hat. In and out in a day or two.

Maybe they will use the missing helicopter from Bourne to lift the top hat and other final missing pieces in place.

I've been avoiding this forum, and the updates since COVID, as I found it way too depressing. That being said. WOW. Can someone forward me the anticipated track layout? Also Black track is an interesting choice.

Edit: Jurassic Park Roller Coaster Construction Update – May 2020

It's the 7th photo down.

@Alicia layout has been spot on so far and makes thing a lot clearer.

Actually, that's a wise idea. I've considered it myself at times, but my need for Universal info updates keeps me here....for now.....But, you are sooo right. It has become a series of depressing, mostly negative, threads, for the most part.

Yeah, the black track is cool, but I think a nice forest green would have blended in a little better.

Green could have worked, but with Hulk already present I think it was wise to choose black.

 

[00_Themeparkfan_00]

Yeah. Black was a very wise choice, I feel that if they went with green, it would've clashed with the colors on Hulk.

 

[Magic Feather]

Green could have worked, but with Hulk already present I think it was wise to choose black.

I think that really is the issue. For me, my top two color choices for this track (brown and green) are already taken by Hagrid and Hulk, respectively. I still feel like there could have been another way or color, but to be honest, I keep drawing blanks.

 

[JungleSkip]

I still think a lighter grey would have looked good, but I like the black
