Not sure what happened to the original post that I replied to so I am sure my first post did not make much sense.
As others who were there yesterday have said. I am ok with the change if it results in shorter wait times but it did not yesterday. Too many "human factors" slow down loading on that ride. (Person who doesn't fit, brought a bag on the ride, forgot to take off a hat or glasses) The old system allowed for problems like that and even handled equipment problems much better.
I rode around 2:30 Saturday and they had to shut the ride down because the tain they were trying to check was having problems. (Couldn't see for sure but it looked like a restraint would not release) While this went on a train was sitting waiting to be launched. Using the 4 station/4 train system they would continue to operate one side when something like this happened.
I think you will see them change it back but we will see. Also did they forget that most people judge wait times based on their perception and not a stop wach they carry around? People move in line and get to the station quicker in the old system and your average guest likes that a lot better.
