Is there a way to find out the capacities for rides? I need to find them out for a project. If you could help in any way that would be amazing.
Thanks!

Ride Capacities

Search the internet, go to a place like wikipedia and look up the specific ride and they even give the capacities
I've tried and most of the things wikipedia gives is the number of passengers per vehicle, but never the amount of vehicles also. Thanks though, I got a few from there.

Just an FYI, these numbers are pretty well guarded by Disney, as most attendence and capacity numbers are for the resort.
I figured I would try, even though i probably wont find much. Thanks for the advice though.

Also, the actual operational capacities can vary depending on dispatch inverval, etc. There is, of course, a theoretical maximum capacity for each attraction, but that sort of information isn't usually made public.

Attendance factors in as well... which obviously changes from day to day.

A few adults, a couple of kids, and 1/2 a fat guy.

:lol: This is why you will find bench-type seats in some attractions and theaters. People are different sizes and you can fit more people as opposed to actual seats.

Yeah, maximum possible capacity is about the only thing you'd be able to find. On any given day on many attractions you may find that they're not running at peak capacity. They may only be running 3 or 4 trains on Big Thunder rather than the maximum of 5. Universe of Energy might be down a vehicle and is running one set of cars as a 5-pack. They may not be running a full number of boats on Pirates.
About the only attractions you'd get consistent numbers for would be the Omnimovers, where the number of cars is fixed.

Outside of Wikipedia, the best I could find is some data from the old Living Seas here http://www.lostepcot.com/livingseascm.html
near the bottom of that same page it also gives the queue line capacity
