Thought I would share but when we rode Dinosaur on our trip it broke down and we had to be evacuated off. Here are some pictures with the lights on where are vehicle got stuck which was in two different parts. They finally came and let us out and we had to walk the rest of the way out and stop at each car to get the other people. They aren't the greatest photos but this is what I got before they yelled at us to stop taking pictures.

Man I love this ride!! I wish all of the little extra effects worked like a few you see in these photos you don't see in the ride because they're like just turned off or something.

Interesting to see the Pterydactyl, Copsognathis, & Aladar..Surprised that he doesn't match his skin from the one formerly used in the Discovery River tour..

Yes. They removed the chain pulleys and installed them on sticks instead with flashing lights.
It first stopped right after the pterydactyl and the lights came on and an automated message played. After about 10 minutes the lights went out and the ride started up again, we made it right past the carnotaur that runs after you and it stopped again. This all happened 30 minutes before the park closed and it was on July 29th, they never re-opened that day but it has been open since. You should have no worries when you go.

My kids are terrified of that ride. They would have stuck to the seats if that would have happened to us.

Wow! Interesting! Thanks for posting pics! Is it just me, or does the "track" look like it's in need of some repair?
It would be cool to get stuck on there.

The skin could have been changed to match Aladar from the "DINOSAUR" movie tie in, maybe? Considering that it was originally "countdown to extinction" but now has both the statue up front and is loosely tied to the character from the movie.. I know when the lights are not on he looks like the character. The blue-ish color shows more.

Could be due to the lighting IDK..

We were stuck on it two years ago. Bounced around like crazy, but went nowhere for a very, very, very long time. They finally threw the lights on and told us to stay seated, which was easy to do since the seat belts didn't release. They had to come with a very tall ladder to get us down. I never realized how high up we are on that ride. We walked through half of it. They gave us a paper fastpass to come back later.

It seems to be having problems the last few months, anyone know anything about what's been causing the downtime?
There's no track visible as such. You're looking at wear marks on the road surface, much like Test Track.
On a similar note, have a look at http://www.wdwmagic.com/attractions/dinosaur/gallery/01oct2003-dinosaur-backstage.htm
I think the track is fine. The floor is covered in hydraulic fluid. It is VERY sticky and it was hard work walking out of there considering how bad you stuck to the floor.Wow! Interesting! Thanks for posting pics! Is it just me, or does the "track" look like it's in need of some repair?
