There is an inherent problem with B&M tracks rusting and spewing rust over all the passengers. They have been addressing the problem for a couple of years. The track gets damp on the run surface and rusts slightly and when it sprinkles a little everyone gets hit. The 2nd. issue is the rattle. B&M in their manuals state the track needs to be lubricated 2 to 3 times a week in the low areas using a paint roller and special mixture of lube. If this is not done in a timely manner the road wheels cup slightly (plastic wheels) the cupping amounts to 12 or 16 (can't remember #) "cups" exactly positioned around the surface of the wheel. they get worse with time and eventually cause frequency cracks in the track. The only fix is remove the wheels and machine smooth - or replace. Then go back and lube as needed in the 1st place.

Ok, so, on other rides that's not a problem.

Is there something wrong with liking those rides more?
