<p>I have not heard any official explanation as to the reason for the suspension of steam or whether it is permanent. I have heard lots of speculation from the public, but apparently the management of GCRR has issued no statement of explanation. I would think that they would make a statement because the ending of steam will surely have some kind of impact on their market. However, I would not speculate as to what that impact might be. It seems to me that the overall attraction is the combination of two more or less unrelated attractions, so it would be hard to know how much the operation of steam contributes to the draw. Somebody on this forum must know of marketing surveys done by GCRR that would answer this question.</p><p>Also, I would tend to conclude that if they don't issue an explanation, the suspension is intended to be permanent.</p>
