Well, the latest rumor from Screamscape is actually almost believable. I know this topic has been kind of beaten to death but here is the latest:
"Just what is happening now with this project is anyone guess... but a reader did claim to have heard one possible plan to bring the ride to life. This source claims that a modified version of the ride system used on Cat and MIB is being investigated for use as the new Driving Machines. If they go through with it, some modifications may have to be made to the buildings and the end result may be very similar to the Disney Peoplemover. Of course, others in the past have claimed that the ride may be scrapped. Either way, itâÂÂs not high on the companyâÂÂs adgenda."
The Cat in the Hat ride system seems like it could be a good idea, but it still leaves the question of how to evacuate the cars if a power failure occurs?? It's really not a ride that I'm looking forward to that much either way, but at least those tracks will finally be used for something and the ride would help disperse crowds slightly I'm sure. Any new news Earl??
