Is it back up yet?

I don't know if this is a valid post, but is MF back up yet? I haven't seen anyone talk about riding it for awhile now, just wondering if it was still screwed up, still having problems, and whatnot.

Yes It has been up. Running very well infact.Though the nylon wheels would be better.

They've been working on it this morning. At 8:30 I spotted the blue train on the lift hill, and then the yellow around 9:00, obviously some early morning cycling. Hopefully they are working out the "kinks".

Nobody's said anything about it? Have you been reading the MF forum at all? There's been several posts by Joe E. keeping us up to date on many different days.

I want to drive the Zamboni!

I talked to someone who was there today and it was running 3 trains again :) . He confirms though that Blue Train is really sucking, just as the timing has pointed out. Not just slow, but it felt like it was riding like Magnum!

but it felt like it was riding like Magnum

Some people might think that's an improvement (including myself). I love MF, but it could use a little shaking - makes it feel more dangerous, IMO.

I rode blue train yesterday twice, middle-rear somewhere in there and never felt as much slop from side to side before. Not that it's a bad thing but it may make it slower. Yellow seemed faster.

MF ran three trains and was up most if not all of Tuesday and Wednesday. My ride on blue was weak and my ride on yellow was allright, but not spectacular. I really didn't notice too much sloppiness in the trains to be honest, just not quite as quick as last year. Also, the MF crew needs to work on their puke cleanup skills a bit. There was an incident about half an hour before closing on Tuesday and we waited about 5 minutes and they barely had gotten started. We decided to leave and go catch 4 rides on Magnum before closing! :) Also saw a puke cleanup operation at Raptor and it was MUCH quicker... :)

I think it varies from seat to seat and train to train if you experience any sloppiness. For instance I have experienced a ton of shifting while riding in car 4, 7, and 8 in blue but not in car 1. There was a little shifting going on in car 5 of red, but when I rode in car 1 of red yesterday it was as smooth as ever. I also rode in yellow once in car 8 at that was not bad.
