All brochures compliant?
CP goes above and beyond with their brochures to be sure that NO ONE has their hands up. (I could have been in the MF shoot except I had to work darn it :()
I recieved tons of brochures from the GOCC and it appears ONLY CP is a stickler for this because there are hands up in ALL the other brochures for other parks. What's up with that?

CP is such a stickler for liability (not a bad thing) that they're trying to set the example of "keep your hands and arms down and inside the car at all times." I don't know if the pictures in the brochures actually serve too much as role models, but then someone that does get their arm broken because they're messing around when the shouldn't be can't come back and say -- but look, it's in the picture, I thought it was okay! Sheesh.

Well, you know,

I got my brochure yesterday and that was the first thing I noticed. I was scoping out the pic of the MF train going over the Magnum hill and they were all down. Pansies! hehe That is wierd, though, that they're really the only park that does this.
Come on People...Look closer...

Funny thing, on my last ride on Millie on opening day, the ops made a specific point to say "dont put your hands up. Keep all hands and legs inside the car at all times". I had never heard an op specifically say "dont put your hands up". Of course, almost no one on the ride paid that particular instruction any attention.

Look on page 7 in car 6, row 3 on the left on Magnum. The 'R' from "World Class Thrills" across the page slightly covers the arms up.
