Tires Removed?

The tires weren't on any of the trains today.

It occurs to me that it's an interesting coincidence that the red train's engine would be missing. On Friday afternoon, one of the spark plug wires on the red train was disconnected (it was fixed on Saturday). I know from experience that if you disconnect a plug wire from an engine, the engine will go missing... :)

As of today, the tires are back on! :)
Woohoo! Great to hear. Any sign of the yellow train yet?

Glad to hear the tires are back, I thought the trains looked a little naked without them. I also noticed the pulled spark plug wire on the red train and was wondering if they would fix it. I assume it just plugs in, but with their history with theming, who knows.

I looked all around the point today. Didn't see the yellow train.

Glad the Tires were back - They didn't move this time AT ALL. completely stationary.

Great Ride. :) long drive home :(

From what i been told the 6 train is at the point, but not on the track. Came in yesterday.

As of last night the tires do still move a little bit. I really don't see how the rotation of them (at such low RPMs) really affect the ride at all.

I don't buy the whole "physics" explanation involving torque and all that jazz.

Where would train 6 be then? I was on the lookout for it all day (driving in, riding the train, on the rides, etc) and never saw it... I never even saw a semi or box or something it could be in. I really don't think train 6 is at the point yet.

woo hooo the tires are back,they wernt back on friday,but they are back on now,im am now happy again

Just got back:

1. Tires are on all trains except for gold which is missing engine also.

2. Gold train was parked on transfer tracks (running 5 trains).

3. Today was the 1st day ride didn't open late (except early in the year).

4.. ERT worked just fine, crew seems to be operating ride much faster.

I wondered if the train on the transfer track was the yellow one. I saw it on the Webcam. Yes! Let's hope they have it running ASAP! I'm heading out Wednesday!
Gold = Yellow = Missing Train. It was the 6th.

It was not running today, but is on TTD.

Glad to hear the tires are back on. I got my first ride with them off, but its not like they make a huge difference they're just cool to look at. I don't think anyone in line even noticed the tires were missing.
