new queue system? like what? i skipped Raptor and Mine Ride this weekend...
------------------
not to be confused with Tservo...
If you look carefully at the platforms on Raptor and Mine Ride you can see measurements and markings which indicate where the gates are going to be. It's particularly obvious on Raptor where the location of the co-dispatch control stand is marked. I first noticed those markings on Raptor on 10/6. Oh, another one I noticed...
o Gemini now has a new, printed "wait time/don't jump the queue" sign. Looks a lot like the old hand-painted one, actually...
--Dave Althoff, Jr.
kill-zone = low-zone...meaning that area is restricted while the ride is running. You can see one of the signs if you look at the fence right by the entrance.

I noticed several new "Restricted Area" signs around the park (all by coasters of course). Ones I remember are WT, Mantis, and Raptor.

Ok, so Mantis, Wildcat, and Trokia are being painted?
Any other major improvements?

gravity: down to earth, without the sugar coating.
BTW IMO the Automatic brakeing system on woodstock express really, really SUCKS. It also tends to periodically overshoot the train too.
