Loading and unloading station

What does CP mean when they keep saying that there will be a loading and unloading station on Wicked Twister?  Does it mean there is going to be two seperate stations?  Or will there be one station for both loading and unloading?
I don't see how they could have two stations.
Where do they say this...can you give a link?

There could be a double station in which there could be a second train that actually trasfers onto and off the track but according to their stats, that isn't likely. Maybe one station for getting on the ride and the one off.

That is all I could think of. 

All they really say is loading and unloading area, not station.  I don't think it will be anything different than the other impulses.

That would be cool to have a double station, and have two trains.
What about that contract thingy that said it would have 6 operator booths!??
With only one train, it would be pointless for them to have a loading spot and an unloading spot.  What should happen is that there should be one station and as soon as the train comes to a stop, the airgates should open, and people should start making their way toward the train as others are exiting.  I know some Six Flags parks seem to require having the platform clear before they'll even open the airgates, but in CP's SOP manual it says something like, "Don't wait for the platform to clear.  This only wastes time."  Of course on WT, they'll have to make sure the platform is totally clear before dispatch, but not before loading. :)

How are you going to have an unload and load station for a ride that only has one train?

Maybe they're just saying one side is for loading and the other is for unloading. That doesn't make any sense anyway. Every station is like that.

Well, not MF.  Since it has two seperate locations, maybe that's what they are thinking (but with only one train?).  They could just be saying that one train is on the track at a time, however it still makes little sense.  We'll have to see in May (April?). :)
