MF 4 trains?

This may sound stupid but did MF run 4 trains at one time? Ive heard that there was a rollback and they had to run 3 trains. Is this true? If so why do they need to run only 3 trains.

Well on the first year it opened they did run 4 trains Blue,Red,Yellow, and Green. On the first over bank the green train fell of the track and went into the Sandusky Bay. So they just use the 3 trains now.

I do not believe that their has ever been more than the 3 trains.. blue, yellow, and red.

There has never been 4 trains. There had been red, blue and yellow. This story is so bogus I can barely write this reply.

CpFan420 didn't Yellow and blue trains crash and it made the 72 car megatrain and the heat melted the paint and it mixed to make Green and when Cp examined it it was all in working order but when CP tested it it fell off.


Yeah new year, and finally got my license, well back in august. Im in need of a trip to the park.

The green train currently resides in the bottom of the lake

Oh gosh.....not the rumored green train again. It was never there, and will almost definently never be there.

Oh chill out. They're just having fun, and the topic was started because someoen didn't know. Leave them alone. Next time you say something stupid to me, i'll hound the freak out of you.

There is no way that there could have been 4 trains since with 3 there is only 1 train that runs the track at a time.

Actually I've seen a picture of a train desending from the lift hill and the train in front of it was at the last overbanked turn. If I find that picture I will post a link to it.

The reason I asked was because I thought there used to be a green train (the 4th train) and then because of the "rollback" they took it out. I was asking if it was true or not. I now know it wasnt true. Sorry if this question was stupid.

That's impossible!

it's called BLOCKING and that is not possible!


I saw a picture and I know what BLOCKING is and I was a might bit confused.

You know this site could do with out you people who try to Piss off other people.

Yes....that is impossible. There are no block sections during the ride course on MF, so it could not have happened. Perhaps it was the doing of photoshop. I have seen many coaster pictures that look very real, but they were edited to appear differently then they actually are.

Correct me if i'm wrong, but MF isn't even blocked for 4 trains is it? I think it only has a Holding block (outside station), Unload, load, and then the course of the track as block sections. This makes 4 blocks since MF does not have a mid course block round on rides such as Raptor, Mean streak, Mantis, etc. If there was another Hold block or a mid course, MF would be capable of running 4 trains.

Would MF have better compacity with 4 trains or would it make no diffrence?
