Wicker Man - General Discussion - Part Two

180 minute queue... but I thought the public didn't like wooden coasters?

They don’t. They consider them to be ‘rickety, dangerous, old and unsafe.’ Clearly WM is none of these, but will that still be the case in 80-100 years’ time? Unfortunately I won’t be around to verify this!
 
They're getting about 200 people per hour at the moment.
What?! Are they only running one train or something? Or is the preshow holding up proceedings? Or are the staff just getting used to operating the ride?
 
Oh dear...

Are you still in the queue @MakoMania? If so, how quickly would you guess it's been moving? I really hope that the queue isn't like Oakwood's two coasters, where the main queue moved about every 10-15 minutes. Are they letting lots of Fastrackers on to it, out of interest? I think my family's plan of action this afternoon is now going to be; do some other stuff and ride Wicker Man during ERT tomorrow.
 
Good luck having it actually open for ERT.
It will probably open during ERT tomorrow, I should think. I thought the only reason they didn't open during ERT today was because it was the proper ceremony so to speak.
