Thanks for replying! It's great to know they're offering that to mitigate the potential for vulnerable folks getting stuck during long downtimes.

some thoughts based on a couple of preview days.

Mine cart appears to have the worse ratio of demand to capacity. I did not see a lot using a single rider queue causing it to be a walk on when I rode, but w/ four seats per vehicle, I'm not sure of a big need to fill seats via a single rider method.

When Monster's has a lot of vehicles running, it is a people eater. I saw very few using single rider and it appeared single rider was a walk on anytime I rode.

IF MoM has a single rider queue, I would think it a good option due to how many folks each ride vehicle holds, but this is a total guess on my part.

Stardust can be a people eater, but I often saw it running at lower capacity (even with both tracks open) than it is capable of.

Unchained both days I went wasn't doing fully continuous RVs like Forbidden Journey, but rather groups of 5-6 RVs with a small gap between each group, and even then it was a people eater with single rider always being a walk-on. So imagine it at full capacity, I don't think the lines for it will ever get too long.

MoM many who rode were reporting that only about 4 RVs were being ran, so will be interesting to see how many it will run come park open.
