Talk about anything that has to do with the amusement park industry here.

okay guys....this is how it works. they have all 6 trains lined up around the station, and they unload you in the back of the line of trains so when they pull up to the loading part...they are empty....they then load two trains at once, and as one is sent out to the starting line, the other pulls up behind it, and is then launched...as the second launch goes, two more empty trains are brought around and loaded simultaneously....and so on...it was very fast when i was there, and i bet the capacity is pretty good.. 8)

The capacity is good when it runs. They havent had enough people in the queue to have a six train operation. When I was there most of the time it had a 2 hour wait. The only time I remember it being 3 was the first hour of park operation.
