Visionland Accident

[Vekoma Fan Boy]

I was reading the (2003 I believe it was) Visionland update when I was reading one of the captions it said you observed some dangerous behavior of Rampage's crew, and posted a link to a near fatal accident and it was uhh busted. So i would just like to know what happened. Please and thank you!

Oh, that image wasn't working for you.

 

Well, I think it was a stroller or a child. But a ride op was carrying one of those two things across the station track.

If you've been on Rampage, you know that it actually brakes before the station, then comes into the station pretty quickly.

 

I had no problem with the various rideops being stupid and jumping across the track, but then for whatever reason they decided to do a babyswap, as the train was nearing the brake run.

 

They had a baby in a stroller, a giant mother and like two ride ops trying to help them over the tracks as the freakin train was coming speeding into the station. It was really scary.

*clueless*

That is one of the most stupid things an op can do while working in the station.

 

I hope he / she was fired

Wow, ummm........yeah

 

At Cedar Point, we would have been done for just crossing the tracks, we had to wait until a train was there, and we also had to signal that we were crossing, we could not just go at random. I can only imagine how much trouble a host would have been if that happend at CP. But then agian, the stroller or baby would probably not have been in the station to begin with since if I remember correctly, the rules for rides specifically said they were not allowed in line or in the station.
