Yellow Train Stuck 6/1

Seems as though the yellow train is stuck about halfway up looking at the web cam...the time is changing but the train never moves.

What a coincidence... Now the live cam isn't working...

yea i noticed that too.....poor people that were up there....i'd be freaking out and trying to escape from the train...lol

I would be thinking...."whats CP gonna give me to make up for this?" ;)

I don't think I would be scared though, maybe a little irritated.

I was there today, no one on it when it got stuck. I'm not sure how long it was there, but the line had completely dissapated. When I asked the guy at the gate around 1:30, he said it could be as late as 8:00. Luckilly, it did reopen about 2:00.

Edit: I have been stuck up there 3 times, although the longest was only for about 3 minutes. It was a pretty cool experiance.

Trains get "stuck" on MF all the time. I say "stuck" because they are really stopped for block breaking reasons. The lift will stop if the previous train has not made its way into the unloading station by the time the train on the lift gets to the top.

I would be irritated that it only got stuck half way, it could have atleast stopped at the top

Alright, Majin Heero just gave you all your coaster lesson for the day. Coasters never ever get stuck! Nothing irritates a ride op more than when someone says a train is stuck ;) And the train being stopped on the lift is nothing of importance. We have a very nice view of the lift from our station and for the past 3 days I have seen it stopped on the lift.

so please don't say stuck it is stopped,like said earlier,for block reasons, besides would you rather crash into a train that has yet to complete it's circuit or be stopped on the lift hill so that said train could finsish its circuit?

I'm not sure about this. I was there on the 10th and 11th, and never rode it due to the fact that it was running off and on both days. I don't think that it was open for the somewhat 'ERT' (for hotel guests) on the 10th, and from what I saw from the Mantis queue and our Breakers room (overlooking Mantis/MF, 5th floor) it didn't run very consistantly.

I remember at Coastermania they were doing the block checks on Raptor before we were let in all the way. They stopped a train on the lift and I heard people saying look, its stuck. I just laughed. Those darn know-it-all enthusiasts.
