| No getting out of the tram but trust me, this one will be the best thing on the tour and according to the previews maybe the best attraction anywhere. It's going to be intense! |

Good to hear that Bill! I can't wait to see it! Do you know if those pictures were taken in the actual building? or in an offsite test building?

Some new photos of construction are now on the wiki page at
http://www.thestudiotour.com/wiki/index.php?title=USH_Studio_Tour_-_King_Kong_2010
It's lookin' big!!
Collapsing bridge is still there, but the loop round exiting the bridge has now gone. It's thought the bridge will be the alternative if Kong is out of action for any reason.

The bridge will live on as an alternate route when Kong is not working or down for repair. The new exit is about to be paved so we can see if it fits the trams  |

| It would be good if both attractions could be used. Although after King Kong the bridge may seem a bit tame. However, it's still great that so many people on the tour don't expect to have the bridge collapse. |
