Gemini rolls back on first da y!

Well, I drove in for my first day of work today and parked in my usual spot by the Gemini. But what should I see when I got there but the blue Gemini train sitting in the valley between the first and second hills! I guess the Longaberger baskets folks only got on half of Gemini today...hopefully they'll get the other side taken care for opening day tomorrow.

So it ran backwards ;)

kruggie wonders how they get the train back to the station...do they push...or do they pull?

This has got to stink... Someone will be working late tonight!

I thought they were gonna run it backwards. :(

kruggie's answer is:

One by one, they disconnect the cars from the train and use a mini crane sort of thing to transport them back to the transfer track where they are reassembled again.

Trim brakes-a necessity???

Thanks Chris!
I had terrible nightmares last night! Dream involved me being responsible for pushing those cars back up that hill....oh the agony!

Kruggie

Is it me or does it seem the times that the Gemini rolls back increases every year... ??
