Yeah...that was good, I had fun chatting with the girl who had to climb the lift hill. Yup, I was in the last row on that train. We even had time to make some phonecalls. Kinda fun.
Hey, I was on that train too. I thought the ride op was going to keel over by the time she got to the top of the steps. They did a great job getting it running again. I never did hear for sure what triggered the e-stop. I though the ride-op said something about letting the other train into the station too soon but I didn't think that was possible.
That has been happeneing quiet often this year, it is something with the transfer track.
you are both right, the transfer track does move, cause the train to not move into the station, and remain on the block brake, and then it stops on the lift hill.
Universal Orlando Mechanical Engineer Marathon down, Goofy to go.
NO! if the transfer track moved, there's no way that train on the lift would not be evacuated.
There's a bad proximity box on the brakes after the transfer track which has caused problems this year, but that's neither what that genius brought up nor the reason the lift stopped.
