Christmas Town 2018

[mtorange]

I can't give a specific reason, but I am so excited for Christmas Town this year. I think I'm done with spooky season. Bring on hot cocoa, twinkly lights and magical music!

Same!!! While Doswell will be my main hub for all things Christmas this year, I really do want to come to Christmas Town once or twice this season, especially since I wasn’t able to make it down there for Howl-O-Scream (and to check out the competition!). ?

It's probably just a multi-launch shuttle coaster.

I think you need new glasses I don't see anything out of the ordinary in the background it's just Pompeii.

Is the train going to be round trip only, or are all 3 stops still going to be open?

I overheard one of the employees telling a guest that the stop in france will be the only loading/departing stop for the train during Christmas Town. Of course we all know how accurate emoyee info is ?

I spoke with Kevin Lembke and he stated that the New France train stop will be the only load/unload station with the experience being a round trip only not as a means of transport.

How am I supposed to hatch Pokemon Go eggs at the park then?

 

[Nicole]

Didn't they do that for the HOS Jack Train one year? I recall a mob scene in the station. It was awful.

Yes, Nightmare Express would like a word with you about capacity and the public's complaint of a closed circuit. AND that was when they had Eagle's Nest to queue people through. Where will they do that now with the current layout?

 

[Thomas]

They already tried that with the skyride. It doesn't work

While the park did use Eagle's Nest they also utilized the Le Scoot queue to hold the massive crowds that were waiting for Nightmare Express. However when InvadR opened the park used a set of stanchions outside of the New France bathrooms and had an employee use the the Le Scoot queue to hold the rest of the line due to the extreme crowds. I think if they park has the Christmas Town Express entrance at the Le Scoot queue, then shuttling guests over to the temporary extended queue for InvadR, and finally reaching the Caribou Station it could hold the crowds. This will be a really interesting feat of crowd flow if this is pulled of correctly as the park is going to have to deal with InvadR, Christmas Town Express, and the New France bathrooms all in this direct area.

If they are only going to do one station then Scotland would be a better choice they could setup the lin going out the side of the station and either run it down the back path behind the sables or run it with a break in the line over the tracks and towards Nessie maybe even using her like without interfering with traffic in anyway. Running it through New France is just going to create a traffic jam and nightmare around the area.

My recollection of Jack's Nightmare Express is not of anything resembling an orderly queue. I recall the station being packed with a mob of people all attempting to trample each other to get a seat on the train. It was pure chaos, more like the stereotypical crowd stampeding a concert.

Well, that all sounds delightful. That train station was already crowded during CT when there were two other train stops.

 

[Ultrasuede]

Well if true, at least it would be a less unruly mob being Xmas town...probably...

 

[WDWRLD]

If there are only 2 trains running and the train being the big new CT attraction they are asking for a huge mess. I remember the massive crowds for the Nightmare Express....even though I kinda enjoyed that long line and the scare actors spread throughout. Not only is a loading queue going to be tough to do to hold the massive number of people they have to figure out how to get the people off the train and out of the queue house. That could seriously slow the number of trains per hour and increase wait times to an unberable time. Either way I am excited to see what they do!

 

[mountaineers]

If the train is not stopping at any of the other stations one train will probably be just getting back by the time the other one has unloaded and reloaded passengers.

I could understand closing festa but esp at the end of the night many people rely on that train to travel to the exit.
