Sounds like it was a capacity nightmare at SFOG yesterday with the VR, and they eventually stopped using it. I saw one person who was there estimating the line at 6 hours at one point! Said train dispatches were 6 minutes. I realize it was on a Eurofighter with low capacity to begin with, and it was the first day of the season, but I don't know if it will work at our park, as it is just so busy.
It could work similarly to how the backwards trains worked; a few parks get it for half of a season, then a few more the other half, and it repeats for 2-ish more seasons.
It seems like the other side always wins on American Eagle Also, I've ridden Goliath 23 times in one day. HBU? (Sorry in advance for unnecessary commas and parenthesis every where)
I know, but just for the sake of saving time and money. These obviously didn't do well capacity wise, so keeping them for longer than a season would be terrible.

Yeah, But It was opening weekend with 1/2 staff. I'll give it until May to fully decide.

I heard a few rumors from staffers that your bet would pay off next year. It seems like SF is targeting longer rides so not any of the compact coasters, rides that are lower on the park's ridership numbers and rides with inversions.
