I really don't keep track of long term ride counts, only single days. I've gotten 30 in one day on Thunderbird and 32 on Thunderhead. (The Thunderhead marathon was on a 10-6 day too).

This idea is a little crazy so bear with me. In the simulation of Mystic Timbers the turn from the Shed into the station just seems to sharp for a train to traverse. So, I think that the layout in the simulation is not the entire ride. I have a friend who worked at GCI last summer and told me they were working on a switchback. This would be very close to when GCI was making plans for MT. I believe that there will be a backwards launch into a different section of track that is not shown in the simulation. This is still plausible because they still won't say what's in the shed, which could include a different section of track. It is also worth noting that when the train pulls into the Shed in the pov the ride time is 1:44 with 27 seconds of lift. That is not long at all, which could allow for more track else where.
