So are we to perhaps assume that the recent down day was due to a part being flown in from Europe? Any confirmation on this? Others have mentioned reprogramming... I ain’t sure what to think.

No parts. Plus a lot of this stuff is made in the USA. More likely Intamin working on programming.

I took that to mean that the replacement part was the issue that this ride had 3 or so weeks before opening, but of course grain of salt with anything we hear that was he said/she said.



Where did the actual line start?

 

[Evan]

It really makes more sense... Open at park opening, close earlier. Either close at storm time and stay closed, or close early evening.

So now that this is confirmed, how long do we think this will last? Do we think this will continue until they get the 12 trains running or will they just give up on that?

No nighttime rides until the Fall, I suppose.

What time did they end up closing the line today?

I checked the app at around 5pm and it was "At Capacity" then. It was a 120 min wait before that.

It's a shame there won't be nighttime rides for a while. I was lucky enough to ride it in the dark last week and it was amazing, like a different ride

They said they're cutting the queue off early, not that they're closing it early. I can imagine if you get in around 6 you could get a nighttime ride.

 

[ParkRumors]

Unfortunately it doesn't get dark around here until 8:30ish - so unless there's a true 2.5+hr line it's pretty unlikely

This could go on for a while, or it could last a week.

This avoids the weather delays better than the mid day starts did. They should be able to get more riders through in a day than the later start did.

As the tweet said, wait posted was 150, but we waited for 65. Line moved pretty well. The temp a/c solution seems to be fixed. Looks like there were 8-9 trains running very smooth, and often, without any sort of downtime.

I've managed to ride it 5 times in the past couple weeks. 4 times it took < 1/2 the posted wait time, once delayed by weather.

It really doesn't warrant most of the complaints it's getting. Granted some things could have been done better, but there's no pleasing everyone :shrug:

In line now. Opened at 9.

 

[Skipper Justin]

Sorry for double post. Wait time was 90 mins.

 

[jrn14]

what was posted? any delays?

3 hours. 210 as I left and no delays while I waited.
