Took what down?? Nope, no photo here... I didn't see a thing!


(It was a cool shot from inside the construction area showing a freshly poured slab of track bed in a deep groove that is hidden from Mickey's Fun Wheel. Also showed nice piles of hefty rebar.)

Well I'm not sure if this will come out very readable.

He was standing approximately where the red dot is and looking in the direction of the white arrow.

That curved curved section of the track was WELL below natural grade and massive...pretty impressive.

Sorry I took the photo down. It was not a good idea for me to post it in the first place.
I was not at that spot. I was on the north west side of the construction area looking south. The photo is oriented with the top of the photo being north.

I'm hoping you don't have problems @ work due to posting it.

DUDE, don't be dense, there are only soo many people working in that area, and you have drawn a map for them to look at to see where someone is that may be taking back stage photos..He took down the picture for a reason, and now you are trying to get him in trouble by pinpointing where the person was at that took the picture.

Don't be lame and take down your maps with arrows. It is because of this that we don't get helpful photos often. DUDE, give the OP of the pictures a break and don't get him in trouble.

Disney can just round up employees that work in that area and question/fire them.

Given what you've said I've updated my guess as to the location of your picture.

Idk if this is true, but they can track back your IP address to your computer and find out where it came from. Don't forget, Disney does have an eye on these forums. I had to learn the hard way a few years ago.

Hey DUDE,

I didn't draw a map to catch anyone!

He described where he was as compared to the drawing I produced...he provided the location, I just drew it.

They can only do it if the website owner turns over his server logs. Then it would require them to get your ISP to give them the info on who had the IP address assigned to them at that time. This would require that you broke the law and they got a warrant that would require your ISP to turn over that information.....aint gonna happen.
Where I took that picture is an area that has hundreds of people a day passing by it. I'm not worried about it...I just had second thoughts about posting it. It revealed very little and was just a small section that current pictures can't see but contained everything those pictures have...dirt rebar concrete...was not that exciting really.

Not if they will actually comprise some of the bridge. The Autopia bridges are about two feet thick (with copious rebar), but they don't handle vehicles as heavy and fast as the RSR cars.

Where you have the arrow pointed will be at the very back of the RSR show building.

What you see as a sort of dark brownish pathway is NOT the RSR footprint. That's just the traffic patterns for the vehicles working in the area, RSR is pretty much limited to the lower left portion of the site.

I was at the park on Saturday and they were installing the lights in the domes. Six lights/domes per pole. I could not get a good view of the lights to tell the type of moving light being used. I also noticed that the scaffolding that was used as a bridge to the platform is gone now.
