Busy days like it has been all week and will be all next week ?
Towers don't care
I see when you don't like the reasonable argument you just ignore it and do another sweeping statement.
It frustrates me to have to reiterate the bleedin obvious but here i am....
There are 2 reasons a park doesn't run on full capacity, one is to make a saving, the other is technical.
Notice how Nemesis is running on two trains all the time, that is because on one station operation staffing is the same if you run on two trains or one, it only drops capacity for technical reasons. Same can be said for Spinball and to some extent Rita as dropping trains doesn't reduce staff. Now one thing you can say is that they are sometimes pulling trains for tech maintenance during the day when they used to at night, but this isn't common.
Air V2 (Galactica), and Oblivion there is a cost saving to not running at full capacity as you are only running one station so they do. Th13teen doesn't have a station issue but they need to send full trains so they will pull back if needed (they will also reduce capacity if the drop track is buggered but i put that under technical).
So Smiler..... What saving does the park get for running on two trains?
Anybody?
Nothing!
It doesn't take a brain surgeon to notice that they clearly have a broken train and only three trains operational. Train 4 doesn't have it's ADIPS sign-off yet so they can't use it. By reducing the number of trains they are not reducing the number of staff and once you have built a ride and turned it on the main controllable cost pressure is staffing. So the "Towers doesn't care" argument starts to crumble into nothing!
*As a side note you can make a cost saving argument for RITA and Th13teen as the fewer dispatches the longer it takes before essential maintenance of considerable cost (rope replacement and drop system stuff) will need to occur but i haven't seen much evidence of that).
Anyway if you want to grumble about Blivvy, or complain if Skyride is open i will be right behind you (after i have caught up reading the backlog caused by life and catching up on the 5 other parks i am now more interested in). Just think about the complexity before spouting the easy.
As for 5 trains, it gets them about 50 person an hour, and seems to risk amputation so probably not a goer!
Now if anyone wants me i will be geeking at parks not on the British Islands great or not!
