disney4me2001 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 My son and I will be stopping by SFMM on our way home from Disneyland and want to maximize our time. We will be there on Wednesday, November 11th and have never been on Twisted Colossus. How long of a line can we expect? If this is the wrong place to ask such a question, please point me to right area. Thanks! I agree with Guy- it will probably be fairly crowded. But just as a guideline, in my experience (and I've been on TC more than 20 times), even when the line is backed up to the entrance (the covered part of the queue), it's still at most only a 40-minute wait. Not bad in my opinion for such a great ride! So don't let the line discourage you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AirMBTB Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Anyone notice any action/work around Revolution? Haven't heard any updates, I'm curious... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TyRush Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Probably won't happen for a month or two. Just based on MM logic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagicMountainMan Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 They've been cycling the trains (still have OTSRs on them) backwards last week and this week for whatever reason. So they've been doing something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

COASTER FREAK 11 Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 ^ Agreed. There is now way in hell I would EVER ride this thing backwards! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meteornotes Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Um, what?!? Are they not pleased with the number of spinal injuries this thing already generates?!? This seems like a bad idea... dt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stricklandCC Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Hey guys! Planning a trip to the park sometime in the next five Sundays, or possibly the Monday before Thanksgiving. Just curious as to the least crowded days to go and any known ride closures we can expect. Thanks for your help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VCXfreak Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 Shoot, I'll try it out if its true. Heading out tomorrow 10/30 and will try to snap a pic of backwards Revo... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AirMBTB Posted October 29, 2015 Share Posted October 29, 2015 That would be quite a challenge with the shoulder bar trains, but imagine it with lap bars. Mmmmmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MagicMountainMan Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 I can promise you that they probably won't run Revolution when the park is actually open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jew Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 The backwards cars on Mindbender is the most intense coaster I have ever experienced. Revolutions loop backwards would be insane... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coasterlvr Posted October 30, 2015 Share Posted October 30, 2015 i stopped by the park today for like an hour or so. would have been longer but it was much more crowded than i thought it was going to be at 11am. i missed out on those early october friday daytime crowds, or lack there of. a few pictures of revolution. a train backwards in the station. really hope they never run this backwards. not much that i can see being done. looks like they tore down the walkway fences and will rebuild those some way. other than that, and the backwards train, i don't see much else. good progress for the past month and a half. train in station backwards dumpster i'm guessing the new coaster signs have been up for a while, but i honestly don't really walk by this that often. thought it was cool to see the TC one since i'm on the orange train.

Then Revo but be a cake walk. Hey SFMM, I would be the test dummy for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SFMMGeek27 Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 Do you think Six Flags will milk out a new paint coat on the restoration, or is Rev. not in need? Yes, the repaint is blue and white, as it said so in the press release. The Twisted Colossus diorama is brand new, or last least it wasn't there when I was there two weeks ago. how long have they been the style they are now? they all look nice. I believe they were all replaced with the current ones during Summer 2014. I believe it was a couple months before Colossus closed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoubleDown Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 I can't tell exactly because the quality isn't the best, but based on the shirt i was wearing that day and the silhouette of the body type, and where im sitting, I'm pretty sure I'm in the blue train in that mural! Lol how awesome. I'll be up there for years! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
