The word "Caribbean" comes from the Carib Indians, the region's first inhabitants, and some say it should be pronounced "CARE-ib-bee-an". However, the Associated Press Broadcast Handbook lists the pronunciation as "KUH-RIB'BEE-UHN", which may be why some broadcasters mispronounce it. I prefer the first for the ride and the second for the islands.

@@TheDailyWoo Same here and here’s a quick insight. The ride is timed while operating it and I believe it is 8-12 minutes long and we as the ride operator/conductor operate the whole train and have to meet certain marks on the exact time or else the ride will stop/stall. When you go next time, sit behind the conductor and you will see a timer in red next to them which helps keep them on track/reaching their marks. The spiel we learned for the ride was another fun thing to learn as well. 😁

@@369284ab Great question and from what I remember, we fully operated the train and even had to use a break to slow the train down. I believe it does run on gravity and that ride is mostly going downhill and is why we had to constantly use the breaks and had to make sure we met our marks with the time when operating it.
