Yeah train number 3 was running but not all 3 trains were running, ill get back to you on what numbers the trains runng were. The 3rd is on the Xfer Track, i hope we dont ever use it lol, i get tired and exhausted fast enough working two. Three would be murder Yea only the one got orange seats, i think its because at the end of last season the padding had been ripped etc. This Orange padding to make it look nicer. Perhaps they figured it would be cheaper to replace it than to continue using duct tape

You seem almost offended by my pupostrous Opinion of it serving no purpose. Sorry

i figured it was a rehtorical question, you already knew the answer. Trying to save some money. Its the same with the Crew, i heard estimated 2-3 pages of Crew Members at the start of last season, My crew this season is half a page.

i Had no idea that the train ever existed before the water park, i asumed it was built and opened when the water park opened.

My point is, why run it at this very moment? Ive not been here for any other Opening Day so ive not seen the rides open for the season. My guess is, they are trying to warm the rides up for the start of the daily season. Did they run the train on Opening Day last season?

lol close to midnight and 4 of us are watching this topic.... Its for fun trust me

Woofer lol, The Train provides transportation to and from somewhere. Vortex is a thrill ride right? Vortex serves a purpose by attracting people. Train wouldnt serve much of a purpose right now. Im sure most of us dont visit the park to ride The Train. And i highly doubt many people were to upset by the train not running. Im sure you see both sides of the argument as i do with yous ''where does it stop?'' You are absolutely correct, but theres no need to run the train at this moment.

Today while i was at work i heard people complaining about a 30 minute wait to get on to one of many popular attractions. End of last season 30 minutes was nothing! I am content on waiting 30 minutes to ride FoF or TRTR or even Face Off.. All ive herd since opening day is ''omg 30minutes, no thats to long lets come back later''. What reason is there to run the train? its purpose is to provide transportation to Boomerang Bay, with Boomerang Bay not opening for a little bit there is no reason to run the train. Yeah its a way to cut costs, and its effective, why run two trains to nowhere when you could run no trains and still end up where you started.

Nah it doesnt, wish it would tho, a blast off like that straight into a drop? how cool would that be lol.

FOF got some new seats, the padding you sit on is orange And for those of you that know Oscars got a paint job, looks nice

Just got off my shift, it was a hectic day. Very Busy, more people than i expected. NU was VERY packed when i got off i walked through to take a look around. Very happy to be back at work DMC

Its the Anticipation that gets you on Drop Zone.....Staying up top for what seems to be an eternity is what scares me lol. If it werent for the short stay at the top, it wouldnt be much fun.

The Day we've Been waiting for since November 6 05 Im looking out my Window Now about to get ready for work, its been raining. Hopefully it brightens up a little thx for the welcome back Dane and Welcome to 06 all my fellow Rides Associates DMC

Couple of Parks i have been to in Europe had a speed pass system if you paid like $10 more u could scan ur ticket through an automated scanner at the ride, and youd get your little ticket Seasonpasses got theirs sooner than just the normal day pass. But its a good idea, even if you dont buy the speed pass the wait never exceeds an hour, which is more than i would wait for any ride. And whats this i see about No Greeter? .... I loved greeter at TRTR, it was nice and in the shade, almost secluded DMC

Be sure to stop by at FoF Boddah DMC

Has the opening day in the past years been busy? lots of people etc? Id like to ride a few rides aftrer my shift, but im not sure how long the lines will be. Any info would help. DMC

Thinking Back to that frightfull night i wish i hadnt touched anything. I stood to the side yea she got owned who were any of you guys kidding anyway, non of you were gonna walk out if she made u do it lol.......... i was just highly annoyed....!!! argggh........ Ecology (Toilets) Once again, u take the cake (urinal or other) Well Done and keep up the work for 06

I am hoping that the park will be mostly empty anyhow, id love to just walk around adter my Open on Friday and just look around everywhere..... Being Easter weekend and all i figured the park would be very quiet, possibly id get an early released home on sat and sun when i scheduled myself to work Doubles I thought that because it is after all easter weekend, most people would be at church or visiting family and friends, and not be too interested in the Park. I Cant wait to clock in for my first shift DMC

LOL..... When are you guys scheduled to come down to see us @ PKI? Should Get him a picture at FoF, if you manage to score a ride in a car alone, the empty seats are filled with aliens in the photo Im sure he'd appreciate that, i know i would sadly im to cheap to buy pictures lol.....Only picture of a ride i ever bought was a Space Mountain in Disney Resort in Paris (School Trip, Memories) Hope You Enjoy Your Time Here DMC

Apparently i will never again get to chillax in Antechamber. Captain Nemo has informed me that they will now be Prechambering..... or as he said the official term was AnteShow? i think? Loading people from the gates of Ante straight through the door into Preshow. Like that time the guy threw up his spaghetti Lunch all over antechamber Ive never seen so much Voban used lol.....Good Work Jeff 3 and a half packets did a wonderfull job soaking it up. Hahahaha i still remember the look on the guys face. DMC

Chewing gum is another big thing, i personally love chewing my gum discretly while working, but i also dont feel the need to spit it out onto the floor at a ride or any other places while walking to Oscars on break. I cant remember who it was on my '05 TRTR Crew, but somebody counted the pieces of gum on the left side of the PreShow Que. Where the Employees walk back to Rendez Vous after escorting the guests into Preshow area. It was something like 200+ pieces of gum just on the side Alone. Not only is it nasty but its also dangerous, that should for sure be prosecuted. As for Prosecuting everyone. Yea i completely agree with that, but i dont think the park could afford to hire as many attorneys that would be needed to fight the onslaught of continous vandals. How about a $150 fine instead? Im sure that would deter some people. There also isnt enough security, they need some sort of security at each ride. Also if anyone here has the information i would like to know what a Ride Op can and CaNOT do if encountering a vandal? (< Id like this to be official, from someone who KNOWS and not a guess from someone who heard it from someone else) Because we cannot keep them there against their will while we go to call security. Perhaps the usage of clever trickery and complicated wordage? DMC P.S. My Oreo McFlurry melted while i was typing this :'(

LMAO ^^^^ Yea i agree, or how about some battons, to just TAP them lightly across the face? i think that would stop them even thinking about doing it again DMC

Hmmm...... Being Incredibly Drunk that you feel the need to relieve yourself in Preshow of Tomb Raider count as vandalism? Two guys were escorted out of the park after doing this...While i was on break of course :'( Same with Woofer, i have never been taught to or not to damage stuff, it comes down to respecting others property, which i do. I mean i wouldnt expect to come out to the employee parking lot to find someone had scratched the paint off of my car, or stuck gum on the windshield. Some people are just plainly stupid and or retarded. DMC

I think i hear something about the time between 9 - 11 no new customers coming into the park, but we are all still on the payroll....They lose money

Yeah there isnt really a waiting area secured for the kids, the place they wait is right outside the preshow door. Separated by two doors and the PreShow music. I can never hear someone knock on the door to get in anyway lol..... to hear someone outside knockin i must be gettin water or something. Otherwise i wouldnt hear scared kids knock on the door. Parent swap is probably the best option for Tomb Raider. Plus while i was there towards the end of the season we basically had just enough people, so we couldnt move from our workplaces to check on the unattended minor. DMC
