Read the climb was slowed elsewhere. I imagine that's a way to get rid of the stacking issue at the load station, if true.
If you're "source" is Jaykethekid on TPR, you can pretty much guess the answer to your question. That would be a no.
I was on it twice today and if it has been slowed it isn't by much.
They still cant keep up with the load of the ride. It takes them longer to load the car than it does for the other to run the entire route and sit behind waiting.
It is definitely slower than when it first opened. I have ridden it 126 times! Not kidding!
Like stated above - IF it has been slowed down, it is only marginally. Also it doesn't take your mind too much convincing after an inception has been placed.
I operated PK in 2007 and never had a stacking issue. If you have the right team who are dedicated to the 53 second dispatch time then you can run 3 trains all day with no problem.

I don't think the issue is with the team. I think it has to do with heavier patrons not checking the test seat. Also those dang pesky seat belts take forever, not to mention dig into your leg.
I don't like pointing people out, but when the older lady is the driver the dispatches are much slower but when she is not present, the dispatch times are not any slower than they were last year. She is just very "thorough" --- nicest way I can describe her approach to driving.
