Can someone explain what "stacking" is on Diamondback? And why they'd make a whole train of riders get off? I've never heard of this term til I got on KIC.

I'm super impressed by the new food venues and options. I'm hoping this new attitude food department just sweeps over the entire park over the next few years improving all the food stands.

EDIT: Stacking is when all the trains are in the station or on the previous block sections. It indicates they are taking long periods to dispatch.

I hope this isn't a season long thing...

When all the trains are stacked in loading. Also I spy some backhoes behind the old Crypt building. Of course they could be from the off season work?????

Stacking is when multiple trains are waiting on the brake run because the crew was too slow to dispatch the train in the station. With Diamondback, in theory it should never have more than one train waiting, as the train in the station should be dispatched before the third train returns. So when the third train stops on the first set of brakes, before the transfer track, that's a stack.

EDIT: Too slow because I'm typing on my phone. [emoji14]

Well...this is only preview night. Maybe they'll improve for tomorrow?

Cool! Thanks for explaining!

Oh boo. Thought Diamondback stacking would be gone this year. Spoke too soon. Anyway sounds like everyone is having a fabulous time. Including me stalking the webcams! But enjoy your Preview Night!! Can't wait until tomorrow!

Look who got the seatbelt treatment also.

Has anyone gotten the chance to see if Flight of Fear Is back to normal?

Hey! Question I was stalking the Banshee web cam and I noticed that the slingshot ball didn't look like it was there. The supports the cables were attached to are there but it doesn't look like the ball its self is there. Also doesn't look like the ticket booth is there either. So is it or did they take it out and I missed something? Or is it still there and the webcam looks funny lol

Shake, Rattle, and Roll had seat belts before, so that's not new.

Also, I recall some discussion about Juke Box Diner not having a Coca-Cola Freestyle logo on the map a while back. I just looked inside, and the Freestyle machines are still there.

And is it just me, or did they increase the number of cars on SR&R? They have 7 per arm now, but my memory is telling me it used to be 6 per arm.

By back to normal I hope you mean all in the dark with no light so that is awesome again! Lol

Its hard to see with the distortion, but Sling Shot's ball is still there. It might look smaller than what you're expecting.

I mean the back two rows up again and running. And them dispatching trains faster and not taking their sweet sweet time.

And most notably- not smoking.

EDIT: Dear KI- invest in better webcams.

Ah okay gotcha. With back rows running and faster dispatches hopefully that could help cut the wait time at times

Cool thanks!! If I zoom in it can barely make it out but it's really fuzzy and pixelie

I feel as if it will move slow again due to it being placed back on Fast Lane Plus. But not as many people get the plus as they do the regular.

homestar92 is reporting that the Woodstock Gliders line is so long that they are utilizing temporary queues.

Yeah, Planet Snoopy looks fairly crowded.
