this reminds me of the trip my son and I rode Everest in every numbered position. 11 and 12 were our favorites

There are currently, 25 trams, 30 Transportation watercraft, 61 Minnie vans and 391 buses. Go!

First half I hadn’t thought of... challenge accepted! Haha as to your point, that’s a question only maintenance will determine (not to say that we don’t get overly critical of those issues in these boards at times)

You mean no games????

Pop in the next few days. Epcot by end of March.

Gondola testing at the Boardwalk turn!

Vindicated.

Never the less, whatever is open is going to bring huge crowds to DHS.

Yes, but, now through what I'm sure is just a coincidence they well have two openings. How fortunate.

All gondolas gone from Pop/Art station that were there this afternoon.

Chicago today

I looked at this new-ish Ferris Wheel today with a new eye. About a year or sol old. Gondola on a wheel. The same moving load platform. Just mounted.

Station looks awesome lit like that! I wonder if the roof has work lights on and during normal operation it’ll only be blue.

They remove all the cabins from the DHS line nightly too...at least now.

I'll try to get another peek at it, but I automatically thought they were work lights or evac lights of some sort. They drown out the blue and make them pointless, IMO.

And yet Carribean looks willfully behind the rest.

And yet Coronado looks willfully behind the rest.

You may want to check your resort tower there.

Though Coronado would be indeed behind every other gondola station

Looks like they have added fans in the station aimed at the cabins to keep air flowing through the cabins while in the station since at the slow station speed they won't have as much forced air flow as when out on the line.

What did they do?

 

[Amused to Death]

Looks like riders might want to wear their bathing suits over the lake...

I'm reminded of Batman's troubles while hanging over a body of water.

Remember to pack a can of Gator Repellent spray, folks!

If Disney had any sense, they'd have cans for sale at the stations!

This reminds me of a schizophrenic friend I had who thought there were Gators in the grass at our local park. Managed to convince her the Twizzlers I had were Gator repellent. We enjoyed a nice day and she wasn't afraid to walk to the swing sets.

Not sure if that is the purpose of those, and I wonder if they are even permanent. If they were trying to get air through the cabins I think there would be more effective locations for the fans.

It is more complicated then the other stations.
