Animated pov shows the train on the way down the river drop at about 55 seconds, not 75 seconds from what I can see. Might have to add a few seconds for the track to switch back over, but this could be done between dispatch and launch 1 if they wanted.

Yeah, it was hard for me to tell timing on the video - plus I'd assume there's a margin of error being accounted for.
 
So for rider numbers, accounting for the Intamin effect, we’re looking at 1 hour+ waits at least everyday. Quick Queue/ rope drop it once and that’s what you get for the day
 
If anyone is wondering what 45 seconds despatches could look like I made a video showing just that

This illustrates the obvious-in-retrospect aspect that dispatch time is not relevant when it's faster than having the second train ready to roll into the station when the first has left it (since the station is empty at that point and you're just waiting for train 2), so the maximum capacity is more like 1 train per 75 seconds, or 960 pph.

I think the 45 seconds despatches are just the minimum time. I can see it being some were between 45-60 seconds despatches
 
Right, but dispatches faster than it takes for the other train to get back to the station don't help capacity, the people in the station just stand around waiting for that train to arrive.

I still find it baffling how Busch took decals and made them look like actual engravings. I originally thought the lightning bolts on the sides were a physical part of the fiberglass.

While I do like the simplistic look of the zero car, there’s definitely much more they could’ve done with it.
I like it the way it is now. It looks clean, it’s not all over the place.
