RailBlazer coaster

While I really love RailBlazer, there is one thing that is a little frustrating to me.  The ride can't handle a lot passengers.  The coaster has three trains: this red one, a dark grey one, and a yellow one.  Its good to see multiple trains running at once, but each narrow train has room for only eight passengers.  Since the coaster lacks a mid-course block brake, only one train is allowed on the course at one time.  This gives the ride a theoretical hourly capacity of just 600 riders an hour.  For comparison, the nearby Flight Deck can handle 1,400 riders an hour with just two trains.
