Oh wow, I'm glad they got everything back running pretty quickly, but it still sounds like they were down for a few hours. I can't wait to hear which ones it involved. I wonder how bad the rest of the lines got because of it!

Glad no one got stuck on a ride, yet the Air Compressor only controls Audio-Animatronics anyway......Good to hear everything is running smoothly now....

Air Compressor's can also control the brakes for a rollercoaster, which would be why Space Mountain was closed.

Brakes would be quite an important thing to have on a rollercoaster
