Hey guys just wondering what rides you have been on with a pretty low capacity?

In June this year me a friend with 2 other guests went on Nemesis during ERT. 2 at the front and 2 at the back

Last year I went on Rita when it was just me and a ride-op.

It was the first week of the season and the park was dead, there was no-one else anywhere near the queue so a ride-op hopped on the front row with me.

The min number of people per train is 2 at Towers, I've been on oblivion a lot with only one other person, in Florida I've lost count of the number of times I've had Rock n Roller Coaster to myself.

Not at Alton but Slammer to myself, Stealth to myself (the entire ride just me), X to myself about 5 times ( the entire ride was just me) and nemesis Inferno 5 times to myself in a row. I would strongly recommend summer nights.

Rita was quiet yesterday, there was no-one in the normal queue and about 15 in the front seat queue so the train was just going round with only the 2 front seats occupied.
