Umm does anyone know what happened to Invertigo? Pulling in there was a crane and the train is stopped on the loop.

Eh, I don't know..I think it's a bit underrated personally.

I think its just old and too rough for me anymore. Vekoma's just do not age well, at least older models.

Supposedly it valleyed yesterday.  

Why bring it up into the loop then?  I assume it didn't get stuck like that, but rather in the low part, with the riders rear ends below their eye balls :)  That was always one of my KI nightmare dreams as a kid, that and the restraints on Vortex breaking about half way up the lift hill.

 

Are they trying to get it back to the lift hill so they can cycle it like normal back to the station?  That makes sense.

I don't recall much wind yesterday, any clue what made it valley?

Again? Didn't that happen a few days ago as well?

It’s those Stinger trains, they’re cursed.  Can’t recall this happening in years past.

Does anyone know where it hung?   If the train didn't catch the second lift hill then it will stop between the loop and the hill, which happens from time to time.  Nothing to write home about.  If it stopped between the loop and the cobra roll then that's a little more interesting.

Update on Invertigo, just got it down just now, looks like they are going to pull it up the hill manually they have a cable to pull it up

For them to be winching it through the loop, it would have had to have stalled between there and the roll. It has the mechanism in place to lift it back up the spike. They wouldn't winch it all the way back to the station. 

I was walking into the park on Saturday night and noticed that it had valleyed.  It was between the loop and the cobra roll.  It couldn't get enough momentum to go over either so it just kept going back and forth.  It gradually slowed itself down though.

What does it mean Invertigo valleyed? Are they getting rid of it?


In other words it stalled and did not complete the cycle.

Little late, but it was before lift 2.

I think what happened was that it miscaught on lift two but it was hot enough that it still successfully completed the loop.
