I think its supposed to be running constantly, But maybe there has been an error with the design and its not able to take the strain?

Typically on most coasters, the lift is always running, but in creep mode until the train approaches, then it accelerates to normal speed to carry the train up. SOME coasters have the lift stop entirely in between dispatches. I don't suppose it *really* makes a difference.

But if you think the lifthill speed has anything to do with the delay, you're crazy. :bonk:

Add to that I've been told that while the buzz is that it hasn't cycled since the four train testing last weekend, the actual truth is that cycling has continued at night after park hours all week long.

Crap! That means that Old Town's Windstorm coaster will never reopen from its "maintenance" now!

The coaster is actually much more compelling when seem from angles backstage. It really does look great.

Great pictures. Screamscape has reported that the errors may have only been some simple programming issues. And let's all give a hand to Stephen! :happy:
