Maybe they're just getting a start on some of the trains and they will leave one or two on if they need to test with it. Just a guess.

Friday, September 18th, 2003 at 10:10 PM. It finally happened. Rollback on Dragster in the front seat of the gold train!

They did one row of transfers today, And i guess left the 2nd row for tomorrow.

well what they are doing is trying to repair the hydrallic system (they have some bugs have been fixed) so they are doing off season repairs thats why the cars are off the track

and hydrallic systen testing

Matthew Botts,

"hydrallic" is actually spelled "hydraulic". The cars are off the track because they take every coaster/ride trains off each and every offseason.

They must be doing something else other then just taking off the trains, because the one train still looks like it is on the storage track.

But yeah, coasters have trains removed off the track for the winter... and they usually go into the soak city lot.

A related question- If anyone knows, will the spoiler/engine cars be reattached to the cars this season?

Thanks.

There is a potential for the decals to be added, but I wouldn't hold my breath.

Eddy the retard is awesome.

The spoilers, engines, wheels, and "exhaust" were so amazingly cool; it's too bad those things didn't last the entire season as part of the ride. It added so much to the overall appearance of the trains and hence the theming.

I doubt the theming will be back unless they can decrease the over weight. That is what caused most of the rollbacks, it was too heavy. Also, about the paid rollabacks...Any employee who would intentionaly cause a ride to malfunction and put people in harm by incorrectly opperating a ride should be fired.

Swimmerkev, what you thought was the spoiler is actually trains. They had a couple trains sitting down by the grandstands I think.

Isn't that the spoiler car? And, is that a train on the transfer track?

MachBlader, nothing you said is true at all. You should look into things more before you make a post.

I thought the main reason was for safety. The unfortunate flaw that caused the wheel to break off and go flying on the break run.

But what was I thinking, it had to have been the weight. ;)

The spoiler, tires, and engine were only on in the month of May and it wasn't until after the downtime in June did you hear about the constant rollbacks. A tire fell off and that was the end of the stuff. Does anybody remember the reason they took only the tires off prier to the time they fell off the one night? I at CP on May 23 and the spoiler and engine were just on. I have a picture of this here.
