DESCRIPTION:The Magdalena Ridge Observatory Interferometer has been design
 ed to meet ambitious sensitivity goals\, which will enable model-independe
 nt imaging of faint astronomical targets once a sufficient number of teles
 copes have been deployed. There are currently two Unit Telescopes (UTs) in
 stalled on the array\, and preparations for first fringes are almost compl
 ete. I will report on optical testing of the MROI beam-trains\, outlining 
 the performance metrics utilized to characterize the elements of the optic
 al train from the UTs through to the MROI beam combiner tables\, the tests
  performed on each subsystem\, and how the results compare to the design e
 rror budget for the MROI.
