Matterhorn Refurb

[Amy]

I am going to miss the old cars with my long legs but the mountain does look great.

Won't they still have about the same amount of leg room?

Nope...It's going to be nice to not have to possibly straddle a stranger, but it's definitely going to be tougher for folks with long legs. Here is a link to an old article, but it shows both the old and new bobsleds.

When have they ever made you do that with a stranger? Or is that only during the summer? They don't even have people to sort you into cars, well before the close.

Oh...looks like just 3 people to a car now instead of the 4 that could straddle in the old ones??

Well, there goes my leg room freedom.

They are doing a amazing job. Can't wait till it re-opens soon.

It was a really long time ago, and yes I believe it was in the summer...but we haven't ridden the Matterhorn in over 5 years though...it's really tough on hubby (though the legroom was always a plus) with all the bumps.

Wait, does this mean that the ride might not break down every half hour? I may miss the old seating system, but I'll give it up for a fully functioning Matterhorn.

Is that one of those things that happens during the summer as well?
