That first picture makes that ascending turn look pretty tight IMO

The "powerful" version of a B&M typical ascending part... before a MCBR!

It's 8 across trains so think about Baron's ability to have quite tight trackwork in comparison to the huge elements!

So far, looks good!

I'm surprised that CP went with 8-across seating instead of 10-across that Griffon has.

I think given the layout (especially the barrel roll) B&M probably said they couldn't manage the forces with the wider cars and a more twisted layout.

^ That and the extra width of the new gen restraints. I can't wait for this ride. Now that contractually obligated, just wait for the release!

^^ What a logical reply!

The mid-course brake run is currently being lifted into place.

^that's a long MCBR- the trains will probably be going quite fast when they enter it!
