FJ did not run for 2 hours today. They stopped the mad dashers at the hogs and the line formed from there out into hogsmeade. They let us in to the castle at about 8:25, I was at the front of the line. They then stopped us before the common room and repeatedly told us the ride was not functioning. It was after 9 when they started moving us up to the loading station, mind you, a TM had just walked thru the line saying it's not operating at this time..then they let us on. So I'd give it MAYBE 1 hr today. Part of my family was quite a ways behind me in line and they stopped twice during the ride momentarily.
Forgot to mention... there is now a set of seats, or the "magical bench" in the line after the common room, when they ask you how many you have, any person who was questionable, they made them sit in the seats to make sure they would be able to ride.....
