There's been many rumours today especially about it being Rocky Express' last day today, with people being told by some staff to get their last ride on it today.
Obviously you should always take these things with a pinch of salt, but it's an interesting development of things if true, given the Loggers/Platform things. And usually no smoke without fire. Interestingly there's been no conversation about Timber Tug or Lumber Jump, but then again, they're not classic Thorpe rides.
Of course, Rocky is old and has arguably been on its last legs for a while now. So maybe it's just retiring out of necessity.
A watch this space thing for sure.
