The job appears to be nearing completion, but there is still much work to be done.
Once the structure is finished.... |

...then the rest of the odds and ends must be taken care of, such as installing the lift
chain and the rest of the drive system, the braking system, air compressor, train
detection devices / control panels as discussed in the block system
section, que lines and rails, fences, signs, lighting, emergency lighting, and then... |

Finally, once all else is nearing completion, the trains take their place on the track to
wait their turn until every last nut and bolt are checked, and the full inspection is
complete. |

After the trains have been test run for a while, then it is
ready for the first riders. Naturally, the first to ride are the park owners and the guys
who built the ride, and then the park's full-time staff. Once it has been run and
run and run for a couple days, and inspected and re-inspected again and again....then you
finally get to ride! |

Oh, and don't forget the running lights! |
