So How Good are Busch Gardens Williamsburg's Operations?

- We're timing Busch Gardens dispatches to see how quick they can send out their trains! Now obviously it's going to vary every time, so this isn't necessarily figuring out the "average dispatch time," we're instead just trying to see how they do when we randomly decide to time them!

I've always appreciated how fast Busch Gardens' dispatches were! Even when there's lines, they go fast!
to cook your Tempasta, place it in the microwave for one minute and twenty seconds.
My friend timed Tempesto, and it came in at less than 45 seconds. (Not that I'm trying to resist your joke)
Does the sauce come with the Tempasta... All new Busch Gardens Tempasta pack: Tempasta and sauce
IT'S DELICIOUS!!!
nice pun, i plan on riding tempesto this year if the coronavirus pandemic calms
@@Ryl_MM2it did not
omg....i was on tempesto when he took that shot! :O :D
Taran Williamson really? Are you one of the girls in the shot or where you out of frame?
GlassTechs I think she’s lying
My username is actually just this !!!! You don’t know that
And as I leave, you all come by and do this. Glad to see operations haven't slacked much since I left! Having operated most of these rides, I can say that the park has done a great job keeping the workers safe, while reducing the dispatch times as much as possible. This is why none of the coasters allow bags to be taken in the lines. Of all the rides, Alpie and Griffon both are the slowest, as all of the seats have to be raised and unbuckled prior to locking, making every seat have to be pushed down and buckled up every cycle. This adds loads of time to the dispatches. Adding in the lowering floors slows it down even more. The screens with the harness states and dispatch timers are a recent developments among many tech additions to operations. The coolest is the virtual turnstiles that can be used to count guests without a physical turnstile AND CHECK HEIGHT, using cameras and ultrasonic sensors. Though the height feature has not been perfected yet, virtual turnstiles are in effect at Invadr, Tempesto, Griffon , and the Main Exit. Anyways, the screens first showed up at Griffon last season as capacity was very rough. The park wants to implement these at all of the major attractions. Personally, I hope Mach Tower sees one soon, as it needs it. You all should have timed that crew, but I guarantee you that it is not the crew's fault, just Moser's bad planning. I did not plan for this post to go that long, but I'm glad to see that you are all happy with the crews at the park!

Jordan Scott I'm not quite sure, but in theory, if dispatching right after the previous train clears the lift, every 1:10, then you could get 52 dispatches in 1 hour. the most I ever saw 48, which is still really good. Griffon is a whole other animal, 40/hour is a big stretch as the floor takes forever to move up and down. Best I ever had was 42 and that was when I staffed each operator position with a person I knew could work hard in that position.
hey...he missed grovers alpine express
Train troublemaker Boi
But grovers alpine express is major
@@carbonatedtomato4793 ikr, its super forcefull.
ikr 😢
Those operations were fast!!! Like fury 325 fast!!!!
True but fury has some good opperations it just depends what crew is working at the hour
😂😂😂👌😂
Christopher Comedy i
nah their dispatches are about 3:25 seconds long
This video was shot on a weekday in the beginning of spring. Of course all the dispatches are gonna be quick. Try going in the dead of summer and then call me back when the park is packed.
As I said in the beginning, I know they're going to differ day-to-day, month-to-month, and even hour-by-hour, but I feel this does give a good general idea of what you can expect.
Coaster Studios I go every Saturday it’s the same I ride everything
Go on a weekday they are usually walk one other than like front row on Griffon
As a local, (I live 2 minutes from the park), I can tell you, InvadR and Apollo's Chariot definitely feel like the fastest operations. Alpengeist tends to be on the slower side. Also, based on the guests on the rides, the population on that day was pretty average. I went there yesterday and not a lot of people were there. Loch Ness monster differs a lot because sometimes a lot of people ride it and sometimes nobody does. Great video!
4:33 I feel the emptier trains actually would make them dispatch slower. If there are half of the seats are empty, the workers would have to do all the work for putting the restraints and buckle up seatbelts for the empty seats while if they were all full, they would only have to make minor adjustments and make sure it is locked down all the way.
Can you please do a kings dominion operations
YES thank you! I love these videos!
I live this segment of videos. PLEASE MAKE MORE
that guy with the eagles jersey is my new best friend
Thanks, this will definitely help for sure when I go next, so I know when the dispatch is! (For wait times and stuff)
This gave me nostalgia. Used to live in VA and got season passes every year, but moved to AZ... Can't wait to come back eventually!
Like if he should do one of these with Dollywood
Josh Dyer he did
Jacob Chambers when
He already did
Josh Dyer have you seen the playlist
Josh Dyer have you seen the playlist
Safety is number one priority!
I have an annual pass to Universal Orlando and Busch Gardens Tampa, so I'm sure to try this out when I go back!
The best thing is when you go for a school field trip and they rent out the whole park, and the lines at most are 10 minutes long
excellent job. they did really well and seemed efficiant
How about timing Cedar Point's dispatches?
Coaster Seeker Yes! I second this!
Xtreme Rides TV I was with Taylor at Dorney Park the whole day, and the Dorney Park Dispatches video is gonna happen. So Taylor think the dispatches at Dorney are pretty slow!
Shut up cedar Pointe fan boy!
blue diamond what are you on?
I like your shirt Taylor!! That ride is at my home park!!
Lmfao y'all caught me slipping 😂😂😂 at apollo either We was getting off or we was about start bumping people but yeah we have those screens because the managers want us to move a little faster because some coaster take a little longer to dispatch than others so that clock is suppose to help us all but we don't even pay attention to the clock we were pretty fast even before they put the timer up
Another measure of operations speed would be from the moment the gates open for one group of riders to the moment the gates open for the next group of riders. This would measure more than employee efficiency. It would tell you the true capacity of the ride and therefore it'd be the best indicator of wait times.
Lee Johnson not a bad idea! That would especially make a difference if they're only running one train.
You should do one in California like Knott's Berry Farm or Six Flags Magic Mountain
I live Utah so if you could do Lagoon that would be amazing. But Six Flags MM is my favorite
Never stop doing these!
Yaassss. Do more! I honestly adore this series.
You should do MM and CP considering that they are main parks in their chains.
I have been to Tampa but not Williamsburg but it is on my roller coaster park bucket list!!!...❤️😎💯👏🏻😍👍🏼🍀👌🏼🥰😘🙏🏻😮😊☺️🎢🎢🎢
Ist funny how you say Alpengeist
Its : A-lpn-guyst
Lxrenzo_ /FeelsBatn I hope you're team Kr-ah-ken.
He never says the name in this video.
Who cares bruh
Lee Johnson not in this video but in general
Taylor says the name just fine. "Alpengeist" may be a name of German origin, but now it's the name for a ride in an American amusement park, so it's going to be Anglicized. Just as when Germans take on names that are American in origin they Germanicize the pronunciation. The established local pronunciation of place names and sites IS the correct pronunciation.
please do more of these!
Reppin my home park. Let's gooooo!
If you can, I'd love to see one of these for Kentucky Kingdom :)
Wow. The Mindbender at Galaxyland in Edmonton's dispatch time is usually around 8 minutes
I do think Invadr should have a height limit, according to my 6’5 brother, he felt like he was gonna get scalped on that ride
We both feel that anybody taller than my brother might possibly get hurt
We both love the ride but he’s not riding it again out of paranoia haha
Nice video, it’s 100% my favorite amusement park 👍
I love the background music
You should do kings island if you haven't already
Ella K same! I go there all the time. I have gold passes so I go like at least once every week
Well most coasters during operation and if they are running more than one train can not dispatch a train until the computer allows them to , which means a train out on the track has to reach a certain spot or a sensor in order to allow the operator on the control board to dispatch the other train in the station. So in theory you really cant judge the operators who check harnesses on their timing. They still cant dispatch a train until the computer says they can .
always like to see someone repping my home park, esp Taylor. Cannibal is great!
Thanks for using
4:07 Just hearing that background music let me SMELL Busch Gardens XD
My home park!
Home Park, Operations are actually pretty quick in my opinion!
I wish I would have done one of these for Europa Park- they were getting Silver Star out in 20 seconds and blue fire easily in 10.
Nice shirt. I’m a Lagoon boi
I worked at Busch Gardens for 5 years. Worked at Apollos Chariot for 3. We were always told to try to keep it under 1 minute
Coasters Studios i went to busch garden's on the 12 I missed u 😭😭😭
I think series (if it's a series) is really cool and let's you know what to expect 👍 you should make one of Carowinds or Cedar point
While I went to Busch gardens over spring break with the fam we went on apollos chariot and while we were going up these girls behind us were screaming there heads off I looked back to see who they were while I was turned back we hit the first drop it was terrifying
I like how Griffins floor drops like valravn[ Cedar point]
I love this video's idek why so satisfying
Last time I went to SFGAM, they had the speakers in the station asking for everybody to move quickly to have a 30 second dispatch
"tempesto" is esperanto for "storm"
I would really love you do a review of Kings Island!
I love this series!
Loving these types of videos!
"Safety is the NUMBER ONE Priority"
did anyone else see josh from kings dominion at 2:32
also why was alpengeist almost empty i know its a slow day but wow
angrybird16755 Oh yeah! I see him!
Medmac OMG!!!!!!!!! He was with Taylor on the day they were there if you watch the invadr video, so idk why it's a surprising thing to see him
Coaster Explosion he's taylors dad
Alplengiest almost never has those lines
Do this for every park you go to!
2:04 of course, row 6.
You should do a roller coaster operation video on kings island and cedar poimt
You should do these with every park
what's the music used in the video?
It may just be the CP fanboy in me, but they have some killer operation speeds, namely on Raptor, Valravn, and Gatekeeper.
The first time I rode Valravn we were out of the station in sub-50 seconds.
Taylor, saw you at Kings Dominion today, Saturday, by Intimidator 305. I rode in front of you the second time you rode I-305 when you rode in back seat. I was sitting next to my friend who screamed super loud and had the hearing aids.
you should've said something! I don't bite, I promise!
Ok. Next time we will.
You should do an operations video for Kings Island, especially banshee, their operations are crazy fast.
I have a suggestion for parks for this type of video. Time Holiday World and Kentucky Kingdom's operations. That'll be interesting.
Also if you look, at Loch Ness, they had to unlock harnesses.
We always try to not stack.
You guys know that Loch Ness is a Scottish lake and there's a ride named after a mythical creature that lives in it in America
do pls more of those vids!!
The other day at great adventure there were 45 second dispatches on nitro
Love the cannibal shirt
Do some more of these!
Verdict: B&M coasters are the best
lines are never long
I hope there's a Hershey Park and maybe a Knoebels coming : )
2:32 it’s josh from kings dominion!!
can u do Busch Gardens Tampa now?
and also, what's the name of the music that comes on at 1:16
1:49 look how quite it is!
It seems this was a pretty slow day. I would probably factor in more people and the gratuitous idiot GP who can't figure out how to follow instructions when I go.
You have to give credit to Disney for rides like Space Mountain, Matterhorn and California Screamin' for being able to send out trains at amazing rates even with the GP
While this is true in a way they are having to shut a lot of restraints and do the seatbelt anyway on the B&M's which is spending time as opposed to doing it for someone or it already being done. And some people are really dumb on Tempesto, but, those wierd vest things are not the park's fault. Ok I sound like a die-hard fanboy lol. GP are still dumb but for the most part Busch Gardens doesn't have much issues with them.
Lucas Bradley yeah when I went I waited for 2-ish hours for Verbolten (because BG isn't my home park) and dispatches were horribly long that day
Do operations for Kings Dominion
"verbolten" is dutch for "mad"
Do a carowinds one!
As some one living in 2020 no Busch Gardens this year.
You should test Kings Dominion next.
Can you guys do a video like this for Six Flags New England? I'm a employee from that park and I do ride operations and being to record our dispatch time in real time could help me and my co-workers set goals to faster dispatch to meet our quota of the day
Do this for Lagoon
Griffon and Apollo when I recently went we’re on one train and kinda going slow with it
"alpengeist" is dutch for "alpengeist"
next time you go to california, do how good are knott's berry farms operations!
He has m8
i don't think he did this type of video for knott's
Oh I thought u were talking about da vlog
Ah, the nostalgia...
Cedar Point's dispatch time is the best
Not your fault if u r not for da next 5 years but trust me they do great coasters to extend your line up
Stay awesome Taylor
Everything Gaming wtf does that even mean
Coaster Explosion 😂😂😂😂
It mean I understand that he won't go for da next 5 years
Everything Gaming What park do you mean? If you mean hear, this is one of his home parks so he comes hear quite often!
Any park in da uk ( England Scotland Wales and Ireland)
Do a timing video for Carowinds
1:19 a lady was trying to find a seat tht was causing the time to be 1m&32sec
Do one with Busch Gardens Tampa
God damn it tempesto your restraints are too difficult to pull down. There was only 3 people on the ride and 3 cars, how did you take over a min?
Since there weren’t as many people in the park I think that Busch gardens did good because the ride operators had to close the restraints themselves
That is pretty fast!
I'm going this spring brake
