I am very sure that that wasn't there a short while ago, or maybe was not working every time I went for the last long while. Anyway I am not sure but I remember something being very different about the western scene the last time I was there in Nov of 05. Hummm can't remember exactly what it was but it seems like it was the fire.

That is nothing new. >>Hmmm... I didn't know that the cowboys took over the ride. When we rode it, the gangsta, er, gangster took over until his untimely demise in the Indiana Jones section. << The cowboy scene is happening simultaneously for the front two vehicles in the western town area, while at the same time the gangster scene is going on in for the last two vehicles. Both Cowboy and gangter hijack the guests in their respective sets.. but both of them are dispatched in the "Curse scene" at separate times... It's so well choreographed that guests do not realize there is much more to this ride than meets the eye.
Originally Posted By Mr X Yeah, that's a neat little twist they came up with. I always wondered how they worked it out (I imagine that the second set of vehicles moves slower, or the Ganster scene is longer?). Anyone know?

Originally Posted By TDLFAN >>Anyone know?<< The second set of vehicles moves a bit slower to allow the first set to go thru the Curse scene..., then as you know, they rejoin in the Oz scene where only the first drive executes the scene with the Witch.
