gforce1994 Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 I can’t wait for Orion! That being said, don’t share drone shots. It is against site policy and park rules. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hotrodyoda Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 So, what row is everyone gonna try to grab for their first ride on Orion? I have a feeling the back row is gonna be the ticket, but it's hard to pass up a front-row first ride. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it is an even number and they skip a row for distancing, either the front or back row will have to be empty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’ll have the first row open no doubt, it’s a question of wether they’ll have the back row open... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hotrodyoda Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 You'd almost rather them skip two rows at the end of the train to have the back one open. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IndyGuy4KI Posted June 18, 2020 Author Share Posted June 18, 2020 If you see a drone post, please just report it and do not engage others. Just let the mods do their job. There is always going to be the park policy vs what is legally allowed. We have beat it to a pulp on here. See the TOS if you are unsure of KIC's stance on the subject. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd predict that is what they'll do since their would be four available rows either way. It should go... Rows 1, 3, 5, 8 as opposed to 1, 3, 5, 7. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, until trains run at full capacity, we aren't going to get a top speed ride before the trim, 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, until trains run at full capacity, we aren't going to get a top speed ride before the trim, While you're right, the additional mass that a fully-loaded train adds to the total mass of the train is just a small percentage. Say, you have a fully loaded train of 32 people at 200lb each. That's 6,400 lb on a train that when empty weighs 40k+. It's not going to drastically change the conservation of momentum, especially with how good modern lubrication is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc3E Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 I just saw an Instagram post about how some of the higher ups in the park has created fake accounts on social media to track down those who illegally fly over the park. I thought we agreed to stop talking about it... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but I think that this is something worth mentioning that the park is trying to crack down on it. Let's not argue about the drone policy though. I think we should end it here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
