I'm assuming there will be a block brake just before the 2nd lift.

That's like having a $400K Lamborghini Aventador and never changing the oil. Very nice piece of equipment but without proper maintenance, components will start to fail. That is exactly what will happen with JL:BFM. Might take a couple years but will happen. Just like Scooby Doo........

Exquisite photos! Thank you for sharing.

Absolutely love this concept!!

This should be pretty hilarious! Hopefully SWSD will follow suit.

Sure will! Disney will do the right thing and realize that Disney Fanboy happiness is more important than expanding their entertainment offerings.

Yes, a group of fanboys are emailing DLR's Entertainment department and "The powers that be."

When Tatsu is running 2 Trains, 2 stations, each station has its own train. When there is 3 train, 2 station operation, the trains alternate which station they arrive at. For example: If you board at station 1, you'll return at station 2 and vice versa.

Sad to hear. http://m.ocregister.com/articles/knott-642582-park-marion.html

Why didn't you like it? Just curious.

I'm an Intamin fanboy to the max, but these look better than the Zacspin cars.

^Agreed. Assuming they will have a single rider line, you know where I'll be!

So with Verbolten being the only operating coaster and "Capacity" crowds that are at Christmas town, how long is the line?

I personally don't care for Starbucks but I think the park is smart for bringing the franchise into the park. Profits will speak for themselves. DLR has a Starbucks backstage for CMs and even with the discount we receive they are still making a considerable profit. I'm ultimately waiting for a park to build an In-N-Out!

^Agreed. Sky Tower doesn't have the highest amount of guest traffic by any means but I do agree that it most definitely is an icon.

^Correct. Magnetic braking does not have the means to physically stop a ride vehicle. At some point a device will need to physically make contact with the ride vehicles to bring them to a complete stop. IE: Drive tire, brake caliper, pinch wheels.

"No Exposed Undergarments" is the best part of said sign. You know you have the highest caliber of clientele when you have a need for a sign like that......

I wouldn't be surprised in the least if the remainder of the CF parks receive dark rides from Triotech in the next 5 years. CGA is a prime candidate for a dark ride as the park won't have to deal with noise OR height related restrictions.

When was the last time Superman vallied? I've seen empty trains slow to a crawl on that stretch of track leading to the MCBR.

I agree 100% with you, Robb. The parks are trying to "tell their side of the story" and understandably so, but while doing that they lost sight of the fundamentals of their business, Theme Park Operations.

The usual GP stupidity is taking place on KBF's IG.
