Most Inconvenient Queue Line/Station Configuration

[mike541x]

I hate rebel yell's at Kings Dominion. First of all, the line wanders around everywhere when it doesn't have to, as it never fills up that far. Pretty sure they never updated the queue from back when the park opened. And then, once you exit the ride, the exit ramp takes you all around, which is really unnecessary, since the exit line even comes up right next to the sidewalk. It could just deposit you there, but instead it takes you all the way around. Really drives me crazy.

 

Rebel Yell's queue actually used to be a lot different when the park opened. I think Paramount was respeonsible for givng the ride those god awful queues thats there today. And yes I also agree how annoying it is to take that exit ramp.

I'd like to add Wildcat at Hershey to this list. The station is fine but the ridiculously long entrance/exit ramps are totally uncalled for, especially for a ride everyone seems to hate. Agreed on the loading/unloading on the same side for Skyrush. Super lame capacity killer.

Cyclone at SFNE. You entered right from the back, and everyone went to the back for insane ejector. You couldn't get past that row. The same may happen with Wicked Cyclone.

Xcelerator easily takes the win for it's horrible system of having lanes for cars instead of individual rows, leading to arguments over who gets the very front.

I am going with El Toro, the station is very claustrophobic.

Vampire at chessington world of adventures, back in the day before Vekoma and the "modernisation" this ride was first class with an amazing queue and station. From this

To this

How the park runs it drives me mad!

 

My guide to fix vampire

1.Rip out the queue gates get ones that actually line up with the trains.

2.Put back the coffins between the gates.

3.Either fix the audio system or instal a more modern one!

4.Black out all the natural light coming into the station as much as possible.

5.Come up with a better ways to integrate and handle requirements of exit pass holders. Not blocking of the back two rows even if there are no exit pass holders.

6.Get rid of the stupid new queue entrance and use the amazing original one!

7.Put the queue back to the 90's layout and style.

8.Keep up with maintenance on the theme!

9.Paint anything that was put in post 1990's I'm talking about the stupid electrical cables that are still sticking out like a saw thumb

10.Theme the end brake run the only point not on the ride thats not themed

11.Paint the tunnel black. Paint everything somethings have not been touched in 25 years!!!

12.Work with who ever needs be to get the third train back and reduce the line to less than 4 hours on peek days even if it means putting more staff on the ride to dispatch the trains safer and quicker.

13.Make the lockers free and then enforce there use. $20/$30 dollars for a locker!!!!

14. Give the staff costumes.

15.Update the anmatronics so you can't hear the organ player over the train moving out of the station!

 

Now my wish list which will never happen...

New trains aka the vekoma trains with just the lap bars.

Upgrade to ride control including new magnetic brakes, better kicker wheels and some software changes to get the trains into the station faster!
