No, Vortex is not designed to run 3 trains... even with the long brake run.
The blocks on Vortex are as follows:
1) Station Block
2) Lift Block
3) Emergency Block (the very start of brake run for emergency use only and initial braking)
4) Main Brake (for use until train is out of station)
5) Transfer Block

The way it works is simple.
The system will not allow for three trains to be on the track with the amount of "blocks" we have. If there are two trains on the brake run, and there is a third one in the station, the one in the station will not dispatch.
Fury has 6 blocks/areas, which allows for a third train.
Besides, three trains are not necessary.

Hurler has three blocks,
Station, which is just that.
Lift, turn one and the lift.
Brake Run, everything from the crest of the lift until the brakes.
As train 1 rounds turn 1, we bring train 2 into the station. With train 1 sitting on the brake run, train 2 can't go over the lift. One of the blocks has to remain open at all times.
Josh does the computer move the trains automatically to the main brake or is it controlled by the drive booth?

My plan is working. . .

One thing I will never do is come out and bluntly say "the park is getting______" . Or try to prove I know something. Where's the fun in that? #BigTease

Even though nothing has been confirm, we believe at some point Carowinds will build a hotel. What's the chance of a monorial returning or perhaps the steam train?

Does anyone still think we will just get the 5 used attractions and thats it?

well were only get 4 and theres been nothing that says carowinds is getting anything else. certainly nothing major as land clearing etc would have already been started. I could see something put in the other side of action theater or even a refurbishment done to boo blasters.

Why are we assuming that just because there are only four characters that 1 of the flat rides is just gone?
