You can see the trains raped up by the big shack in the back but that could be any train.

Yeah it was a pretty bad day. I was all the way in front for S:UF and it never opened in the morning. I went to Batman the ride and it was closed to like 12 or something. Same with Iron Wolf. So in the morning, there were 4 major coasters not operating (including Deja Vu) I went on AE, Raging Bull and a few flats then I went heading for a water ride. Lines weren't too bad for water rides. After that I went to V2, and it was broken down. So right there the three news rides in the park weren't working. I was getting pissed. I went to eat and relaxed came back and just walked around the park. Then my friends wanted to ride the bumper cars so I sat on a bench outside. But thanks to them I saw the first train of S:UF test. I ran to the line and I was like the 3rd person in line. The lady in front kept on telling people it wasn't going to open and to go ride other rides. But we waited for about another 30 minutes and the line opened and we were the first train out for the day. It was pretty cool. Anyway, it wasn't that bad of day, but not a lot of the rides weren't open, or running from breakdowns.
