  1. Yeah it's bizarre. Everyone I can think of at least operates for the entire summer season.
  2. This would be the perfect ride for any of our parks - what says Gold Coast more than a surfing coaster - make the last car back to back for the up charge
  3. If that was the case couldn't they just have conformed (bent) the letters in the same radius as the tower?
  4. I'm not sure how we got to this - wasn't really expecting a deep dive into MTA's efficencies compared to a roller coaster based in a ficitious city based off NYC, but can we just get VRTP to operate their roller coaster amusement devices more efficently. (also more than one service uses the same platforms in actual NYC)
  5. I don't even think that's true.. this is an enhanced version of @Smol bean's photo posted earlier.. it's clearly between the main structure and the track.
  6. It’s all tied into the guest experience
  7. The width doesn’t matter - they just had to make it look like a w
  8. If only it dispatched as frequently as an actual subway
  9. I'm convinced they got two M's. On the left is the W flipped.
  10. Rivals is probably running at 25% capacity
  11. They could have just kept scooby in its current state (which was fine for years) and do the referb once Oz is open.
  12. Really quick switching track that will load a train once the previous train clears the top hat (maybe the same sideways style like mr freeze?) - then commence the launch once the previous train passes the final brake run .. should be about 50 secs - whereas the hydraulic launch took about 40 secs to reset. So instead of just sitting there waiting for that, you're doing a swing launch. Station position doesn't really matter if you're launching both directions.
  13. But those uniforms were ok last week? ok.
  14. The speculation is the spike will be taller than the top hat (which probably means only the back row will reach 500ft)
  15. We can only hope. SE/Scooby/Levi load platforms are indoors and airconditioned. Rivals has huge ass fans and is covered.
  16. Heck they could even have LSM's at the top to aide in a slow crest experience.
  17. So they're moving futher away from Disney/Universal level and heading closer towards Six Flags
