Well, it was an AMAZING opening day! I noticed Viper, Batman, and my precious Wolfie got far rougher. My dear Wolfie seems to have gotten MUCH worse. I do think that this is either Wolfie's last year, or it's getting Chang's trains, because they literally we're running one train, and STILL no one in line. Very very sad...
I blacked out after a five time in a row on B:TR, and then proceeded to sit down, and then go to V2. Lesson: Don't marathon B:TR five times in a row without getting up. Also, I timed the crew, 52 seconds to departure! Very well done.
Also, what's the deal with what they're dong to the air-gates, covering them with a piece of wood, what? Now to the pictures.
What a beautiful sight to see! ;(
Walking into Orleans Place.
Not very clear, but wheel covors were not in use on one of the trains, the other had them on.
Blue train leaving the station, I must note that although much paint was used this off-season, not so for Eagle's station. It needs it though.
Bull was running two trains, Red, and Yellow. I felt the crew was extremely slow, and the timer was off.
Eagle through the trees.
You can tell that the fog was a bit crazy, as Giant Drop is barely visible from Viper's queue.
Steel vs. Wood? You decide!
Surprisingly, no new Johnny Rockets this year...
My memory is foggy, but were these seats here earlier, or are these from the farmer's market?
Burger King for lunch, that was fun cleaning up...
The train with the wheel covers!
Wolfie's train. This makes me sad, I was the only one on the train at one point. :/ A vicious cycle...
Nothing about chang at all, seems they put that support away, I meant that water main.
Dare Devil Dive. Nothing really wonderful here. Just a sky coaster.
I actually really like this new design, really nice.
Magi-Quest, looking all Magi-Quest-y.
Goku, was this fence up when you went?
Funstruction. Says "Coming soon! Spring 2011" Not so fun. It looks like we're getting a Water Park Expansion...
1) Ignore the girl... 2) Seems that two pipes were replaced. or, two pipes are yet to be replaced.
Goodbye my dear! See you soon! It's only a holiday, I shall return!
Didn't really count, sorry. Also, someone needs to sue Six Flags, they're STILL USING THE CLEANEST THEME PARK IN THE WORLD BS.

Could this mean that Chang is going in Wolfie's spot, or? I'm not going to start a Chang brouhaha, so I'll end this now.
There's only one thing to say on that. Chang would never fit in Iron Wolf's Footprint. please, for once, people, don't continue to elaborate on this. Go to the Chang Watch Topic.

The crews were excellent today! When I was waiting for V2 one of the operators would call out the loading time at set intervals; the train was always ready for launch by 90 seconds.
Really 90 seconds for a shuttle coaster isn't all to well, is it?
The only crew I had beef with is Raging Bull. I think they weren't at their best because of no timer. i swear, if Shapiro was there, they'd all be gone! I'm not to sure, but I'd say one dispatch was about 2-2.5 minutes. Especially lovely when one of the crew walks to check the restraints. I really wish Shapiro would go in disguise, and catch these people. But, he HAS to wear a suit.
Also, did you notice that Batman and V2 were a bit rougher? Especially Batman?
Wolfie was running two trains, but it seemed like one was smoother then the other. I had to awesome rides on IW (front and back same car) and then a horrible one. Hmmm

Raging bull was fine, there was never a line to say they were slow, probally why they didn't have the timer on.
