uhhh? some help me out

Okay i know i will probaly sound dumb when i ask this but what does 12E on the side of Disastor Transport stand for? I know alot of you probaly know but i cant figure it out thanks.....
I have no clue and have always wondered myself. I wish the theming for it was still there. sometimes the line is long enough that the videos would be cool again..

My theory is that it doesn't mean anything - just a random element used by ITEC.

yeah i agree, you would think someone would know, i mean its a big 12E in clear site, its gotta mean something...
The 12th letter of the alphabet is L.

E is the Eth letter of the alphabet.

Combine the two and get "LE." Lake Erie.

I think there's a thread on this already, sorry I couldn't find it. I know it discussed a bunch of different ideas or theories on the mysterious 12E.

Smoking Marijuana isn't a bad thing or even a good one, like everything else, its what you make of it.

Ha-ha. You sound like someone who's into conspiracies.

Nope. If you've ever seen Mr. Kinzel's feet, they're not very wide and they don't look size 12.

I asked my manager this, and she told me it's just a terminal number. The ride is themed to a transport to Alaska. The number on the side of the building is merely the number of a terminal, like in an airport. You board in terminal 12 E.


1,146 rides on Raptor. Three rides in 2009.

You can also find 12E on Raptor as well. It is written very small i believe some wheres near or on the brake run.

I think it's the hexadecimal representation of how many times this question has come up :)

Um, i was joking, Haux. This question has been asked as many as Tim says and that's one of the stock answers. Should we be worried that you actually took the time to look at Mr. Kinzel's feet? Are you some sort of stalker?

If you look on Mean Streak it is there a few times ;)

12E in hexadecimal is equal to 302 in decimal. I'm sure that this topic hasn't come up 302 times, it just seems like it has :)
alright then, if its on more then one coaster, then i might not just be themeing on Disastor Transport. but then again maby it is
I think it was just an attempt at themeing a terminal like building.

Not to get back on the topic of "DT's Theming" that has been worn out here but during it's first 2-3 seasons of operation, the theming was quite good, everything was used and was working. If I remember correctly, they even had actors/employees in the various queue rooms introducing the story/theme of the ride.

What happen to the car on the adventure to Alaska. Did the sled dogs go on strike. Did the machines go on strike after the parts have been temperd with from old parts from Avalanche Run. Or did the tour dir. get lost in the tunnel. Just some thoughts.
I thought you went through space, sled dogs would not be an option. I know you travel to Alaska, but I never figured out if it was through space or otherwise. *** Edited 9/2/2004 7:06:10 PM UTC by crashoverride***

no it is a trip to alaska, I never rode when the theming was good, but apparantly something followed you up the lift hill
