When Knoebels rides break down

Closures by the hour they start

286 breakdowns · late starts excluded

2712pm
91pm
1012pm
323pm
44pm
1126pm

Breakdowns cluster at 6pm, with 112 of the 285 closures that started before the park's final hour beginning then - so the ride you most want is safest earlier in the day, not saved for last. A further 1,921 rides simply were not running at opening, which is a late start rather than a fault and is counted separately. The other 1 closures start in the 7pm hour, when the park is shutting - those are rides finishing their day, not failing, so they are left out here.

Knoebels downtime day by day

Share of ride hours lost

20 Jul to 13 Sept

20 Jul13 Sept

The worst day in this window was 31 Aug, when 75.6% of the park's ride hours were lost and 59 of 59 rides went down at some point.

Uptime is the share of the park's own operating minutes a ride was running, recorded every few minutes and averaged over 40 days. A closure counts as one breakdown when it lasts ten minutes or more; shorter stops still count towards time lost, because a two-minute reset is not a fault. Touching closure windows are merged into one closure - a ride shut all day arrives from the feed as that day sliced into the sampling interval, and counting each slice would report one bad day as a hundred breakdowns.
