3 trains running all day Thursday...

I bet they will. They nearly always keep 3 Raptors/Mantis/Mean Streak trains on. I don't see why not MF.

This might have ben answered in a previous posting, but I'm curious as to what roll-back protection there is on the lift. I didn't hear any clanking noise, so I assume roll-back dogs aren't being used.

What happens of the train loses grip with the cable, or if---and I doubt this would happen---the cable breaks?

You should hear that thing when it isn't moving so fast...say, as it starts up from being parked on the lift. Trust me...there IS anti-rollback protection. When engaged, it's louder than the ones on Magnum!

And boy does it get people's attention, if only because it's normally so quiet. Before last Wednesday when the system was set up for the new blocking scheme, the anti-rollbacks were engaging when the cable moved at anything less than full speed. You could hear it all over Frontier Trail, and every face in that section of the park looked up. It was like watching the crowd at a vertical tennis match!
