Yea exactly as devarious said. The long brake run is mroe to do with blocking than jsut for slowing the train down. For it to ahve a three train operation with no MCBR it has to be set up to be able to have two train sitting on the brake run plus space for teh second one to slow down when it comes into it. So while it might look excessive it is for safety and capacity purposes. If they had a shorter break run they could only do a two train operation.

If they had a shorter brake run, it might indeed be a break run.

YS ain't lying, I just noticed a couple days ago. That brake run IS particularly long. Banshee probably would not be the longest if it weren't for that...

1st Banshee- 4,124 ft

2nd Pyrenees- 4,048.6 ft

I meant that it would be longer than Raptor

As an English major and lover of puns and play on words I am furious that you beat me to every punch. I am also wondering if I should have revealed my major since I am sure to be on here after a few adult beverages and make some mistakes...keep them coming he who interprets.

See KIC meetups.

I think he has a program that automatically does that for him.

IMO, I think for 2014-2015 Season That KI Will Focus on Flats Becuase of Banshee And KI Kinda Needs some New Flats. Or maybe a new food cart

Hey, there's nothing wrong with a good ole food cart.

Like this one?

I personally miss the blue carts that used to roam the park around 2008/2009. They usually had a variety of sodas, but they also had this tasty lemonade in clear plastic cups. It might have been squeezed... not sure. It didn't taste like it came from a pop machine, anyway, and it typically had a lemon slice or half in it. That stuff was good. I bet it brought in the bees like crazy, though.

Hershey has those guys that walk through the queues with slushies and lemonade.

I guarantee if its an invert it will be shorter than raptor...

How did that guarantee work out for you?

Just,

just let it go...

Build a giant B&M wing rider stratacoaster that has multiple lifts, goes 100 mph, has 20 train operation, 2 stations, one at Cedar Point and one here at Kings Island and is like a fun light rail system!

I can see it now...
