Silly question time

This might sound a really silly question, but what is the plans for 2010.

What will we start seeing this year, in what order and when??

As I said silly, but nice to know.

Thanks

Not a silly question, I'm sure most of us are curious.

Previously posted, I thought someone said they'd hoped to get some work started on the Scenic Railway in the spring.
There are engineering people volunteering, apparently. Getting the track rebuilt should be pretty straightforward. Getting the machinery repaired or replaced and some suitable trains will be tougher.

2010 will almost surely not see the park reopened. All of the collected attractions will need reassembly and restoration, and a significant amount of work needs to be done to the grounds and remaining facilities. Tons of concrete eventually needs to come up to restore some green, although that could be done later.

None of this even includes the Cinema.
