  Are you saying that you worked 28 consecutive hours that time? That honestly tells me how little the park cared about its employees more than anything else

  Amazing story.  It gives me a lot of anxiety.  I don't like heights, and the danger of  heavy train moving on the track while you are up there is just flat out scary.

  I remember operating a boomerang, it got stuck on the cobra roll, it took a solid 2 hours to get everyone off

  Oh wow, watching this right before bed was a bad idea—the nightmares I’ll have tonight, and I haven’t walked the track in 30 years! Having worked on a Schwarzkopf coaster before and dealing with the frustration of splitting wheel housings for winter refurb in the comfort of the shop, I can’t imagine trying to do that in the air on the track. Sheesh!<br><br>Haven’t had personal experience with a valley, but dos help with a wooden coaster a couple of times with PTC trains. First few runs out of refurb in the spring, the trains would not make it around the track (so at the top of a turn-around hill). Cue a train full of mechanics riding and jumping out onto the catwalks as it stopped, then pushing it around the corner. Rinse and repeat a few cycles to work in the bearings/grease. &nbsp;Wild times!

  Years ago Cedar Point&apos;s Raptor tended to valley in certain wind conditions. &nbsp;It happened so often that the maintenance team would be able to clear it in the 8hrs the park was closed at night.

  I love hearing about the engineering of these coaster stories. I’m glad I found you channel!

  Siren’s Curse will never be stopped vertical while I’m on it because I want it too much.

  I humbly submit that when a coaster has stopped at the TOP of an inversion or hill, it has “peaked.”
