Something I’m sure they are not dieing to go back to and giving cast more hours and hiring new ones lol.

It wasn’t straight through. They’d leave after the 12pm show and come back at 7:30pm

Trolley and DEP? That's a long shift! Plus the Train Station Welcome......

Some did Trolley split to DEP, some did FoF, PM MiSi , DEP. some did DEP only. Some did FoF, Hoedown, DEP. Some did other meet and greets into DEP. There were also significantly more people trained in parade roles back then.

I'm wondering if its some sensitive wind checklist that got added after the DL fire because WOC seems to have a similar thing with the big flame thrower where it gets disabled with the slightest of gusts. It was windy today.

2 casts, I’d guess.

What did MK do pre 2016??? 1 FOF, 3 MISI, 1-2 MSEPs? Why did FOF go only to once per day a couple of weeks ago? FOF was Twice a day for months with Adv. Friends and the Hoedown.

So I guess with a light parade, they’d go back to one afternoon parade at 3 pm, maybe a single cavalcade (or not…) and then the light parade at 9 pm. Another cast would be required to show it again at 11 pm it seems.

Half of the cast perform in Frontierland Hoedown Happening and half perform in Adventure Friends. And all of that has to fit into an 8 hour shift with an hour lunch. And account for rest time in between performances

Does anyone know the reason why they can not run FoF after 3pm? The only logical reason I can think of is it has something to do with cast schedules and the union? But when there’s a night parade again they will need to adjust cast schedules.
