The lift hill motor went too fast and launched the green train full of riders off the top of the hill. It wasn't until the yellow train was 3/4 of the way up that they realized the green train didn't make it and it was e-stopped and evac'd. They are trying to settle out of court with the families of those in the green train before re-opening, but it seems the family members are just being dummies about it.

OK - I don't know a lot about roller coasters - but - if the green train was launched at full power off the top and then the ride was e stopped, where would the green train stop during the e stop ??? If the answer is in the holding brakes just outside the unload station then it was not an evac just an unload. I think.
Yes. You are mighty correct. When the green train was launched off of the top of the hill, it e-stopped in the holding breaks. Finally, we can all get to the bottom of this...I love life
