Running 6 trains ???

It would be great if they could move two trains at once.

Either way 6 is impractical. They have 2 loaded trains being launched , 2 being loaded, and 1 train that just unloaded. 5 works, 4 doesnt because the train that just went, couldnt get back to the loading station by the time the 2 loaded trains are about to be launched which causes downtime in the loading station. 6 adds no benefit, there would be 3 sets of trains: 1 set launching, 1 set loading, and a set with 1 train in transit and 1 unloading. *** Edited 8/4/2005 6:58:12 AM UTC by SFGA=toilet***

If they ever get things working right, 6 trains would add a benefit.

Not another one of these discussions. It has been discussed so many times and many times. Ride the second train out of the station, when you reach the holding brakes the ride will stop and have to wait quite a while to move (because 1 loading has to clear, then 2 loading, then 1 unloading, then 2 unloading, then it's your turn to move). With 6 you just have another train on the holding brake and that one can delay the next launch since that block has to be cleared in order for the next train to launch.

Basically what many above have said is that the ride can't run 6 with a good capacity unless the programming of the ride has changed (doubtful).

In all honesty though I have no idea, just takes this as a educated/observate guess. :)

Hey, nobodys always right........am I right?:)

What do you think most scientists do....they make an educated/observative guess. It's one of the steps in the scientific method.

My guess is that loading is slower with 6 trains. Like you said Gomez, you have to wait for the 6th train to clear the holding block before you can launch.
It takes up time!
