The Hogwarts Express isn’t just a standalone attraction, but also an alternate means of transportation for guests with park hopper abilities to go back and forth between Universal Studios and the neighboring Islands of Adventure. Race Through New York offers non-New Yorkers the chance to step into a replica of 30 Rockefeller, which has the benefit of being an interesting place regardless of how you feel about Jimmy Fallon specifically. If you’re going to be waiting over an hour for any attraction, it helps a lot if you have something cool and immersive to look at. If you’ve already done a lot of these - three more are going to come up on this list alone - then Race Through New York might feel very “been there, done that.” That said, this ride gets some points for the queue.
(There’s even a TODAY Café at Universal Studios now, helping everyone realize their dreams of eating eggs with Al Roker.) This ride itself is a 3D motion-simulator, so a lot of your enjoyment of it might come down to how fatigued you are over this sort of theme park ride.
Is it weird that this ride exists at all? Sure! But corporate synergy means that NBCUniversal needed an honest-to-goodness NBC property to take center stage at the Universal parks.
