Will they ever all work again (just one working today, of the other two, one was static on its wheels, the other static in an already tipped position) and will the last one ever do the smoke ring again?
 
Probably after RSR goes down for a refurb. So far they haven't closed RSR for a lengthy refurb, but I would guess that is something they could fix at that point.
 
I am always curious about why they can't do stuff over night. I'd love to follow an Animatronic technician around after hours diagnosing and correcting stuff. I think that'd be a great job.

It might be an issue that would take longer than a single night to fix or it might not be something that could be worked on in a piecemeal fashion (i.e., the entire fix might have to happen which could take the ride off-line for more than a night). I do think it would be fun to see the diagnostics that happen, but my guess is that most things are more difficult to fix than we think (otherwise, it would happen).

Even after multiple trips and many, many rides:
I have never seen the third tractor move, it has always been in the tipped position. Did it ever move?
I have also never seen the smoke ring.
 
I don't recall seeing the third one move either; the first two used to tip. I'm not sure about the smoke either (can't remember :confused3).

On my first trip through, it moved and blew smoke. I've never seen it blow smoke again, and not seen it move in some time.

this shows them all moving

I'd look for some smoke ring videos, but I'm pressed for dapper day prep right now.
 
From what I understand , if they have the ride running at max capacity, they wont all tip because they dont have enough time to reset. As for the third one, I have not seen it tip or blow smoke in a while. I have seen one of the first two tip most ride throughs, sometimes the first, sometimes the second. Never really see them both tip at the same time anymore.
 
When I went in July, the first two tipped. I don't remember the third one tipping, though.

It will be nice when they do a refurb and get them all up (and down).
