Its less than 1000 people...

[Iron Wolf 90-11]

290 people? Unsure about how many people can fit in ERC cars.

[DejaVu2001]

25 cars on Crawler with 3 riders per car is 75
48 seats on Whirligig
28 seats on Vertical Velocity
2 Trains on Batman with 32 riders per train is 64.
20 Boats on Yankee Clipper with 5 riders per boat is 100.

Total = 315

This is very close. You are 80% correct.

[JimPanky]

Great question! I think it's fair to give it to Nolan. Im thinking no one is gona get closer than he did. Do you agree Dan?

[JimPanky]

Plus, not gonna lie, I'd love to see what question Nolan comes up with. lol

I agree we will give it to Nolan. The only mistake made was Clipper at full capacity can run 26 boats. This makes the total 345.

^ Hmm, I wonder when the last time they actually ran over 20 was I don't think they've done it in a while, but I'm not a flumes expert.

[JimPanky]

K, you got it close enough so it's your turn to ask a question.

[Iron Wolf 90-11]

K, you got it close enough so it's your turn to answer a question.

Ask a question?

2007 is the last time I can say it was done for sure, but that's only because I did it.

[Radical-Illusion]

Hmmm. 2,065?

[Iron Wolf 90-11]

Hmmm. 2,065?

What?

[DejaVu2001]

Sorry for the delay, I was at Dollywood this weekend.

What was the dispatch interval for Willard's Whizzer when running 5 trains?

[Goku1910]

^When the previous train reached the top level of the lift?

[Radical-Illusion]

Sorry, My laptop goofed and didnt tell me that the answer was already revealed.

Anyway, For the current question : I would guess when the previous train is completely off the lift?

[DejaVu2001]

Wouldn't be a very good trivia question if the answer were that easy, now would it?

[Sharon29060]

When the previous train is midway up the lift hill?

[JimPanky]

Can you give a hint?

[Ace]

I am going to guess when the previous train entered the second tier.

[DejaVu2001]

The correct answer is the second tier of the lift. Made awesome photos like this possible:
