Cornball Express Transfer Track?

I noticed while riding 4 times on the Cornball Express, that there is no transfer track. Then I heard the ops talking to each other, about "them not having a chance to build the transfer yet." Do you think that they will build it or just run one train all the time?

MB Pavilion leaves one train on the transfer track, and always runs one train only. Every few days, week, or something, they switch the trains. After both trains are really beat, they fix 'em both up, I guess. They might not build it, it may run as is. One train in a smaller park.

I'd guess they will eventually, but it doesn't seem entirely necessary. I've been there twice, both times on a Saturday, and never had more than a 20 minute wait. They do a great job keeping the line moving with only one train operation. Now if something went wrong with that train, I guess they'd be out of luck.

Does anyone know what the pile of lumber in the station is for? It doesn't look like enough to really build anything significant (transfer track) with.

I think they will be forced to build a transfer track with an extra car before to long. I did notice when I went that they had the lines moving rather quickly and the guest were spread out throughout the park. There was a three car wait for cornball the hoosier hurricane was basically lineless.

I just don't see where a second train would be necessary at a smaller park like IB...I was there for CE's Media Day and the ride was walk-on unless you wanted to wait one train for the back or two tops for the front. In general smaller parks don't want to invest the extra money (500K or so) for another train when they could put it towards another ride!

Alternating wear and tear, if anything else.

The extra lumber was probably for the bridge they built over the loading track for the exit line and the handicap elevator.

As for a second train...I think it works better with one. Look at Hoosier Hurricane, they almost never run 2 trains anymore and there is never a wait. I think they learned their lesson and they will just run one train. We'll see though...
