Whislt one train op isnt great, I think on Saturday they opened up Colossus, Nemesis, Saw and Rush all till 6:30 to try compensate for it. Dont like that fastrack is sold for it whilst on one train though. Id like to see the effects back up soon, but id guess that some of the engineers working on it to try get it back up to 2 trains will be the ones who eventually look at the effects.

I wouldnt read into the message too much, it was changed yesterday because Inferno was unavailable.

There was some delay with the ERT starting due to having to turn the ride off so staff could safely enter the ride area to collect a guests camera in the area, its sometimes quite hard to predict these things but we will bare this in mind next time

We hope you all enjoyed the trip, and hope to offer more like this in the future.. Please post any reports here, and if there's anything further you would like to add feel free to contact me or Ian direct.

Id guess around 7pm maybe? A number of drivers will be there so lifts to staines after we are finished should be no problem

List updated Thanks all for the support, we appreciate its short notice!

+1's are fine

Why new types of restraints? That would cost alot and not really help the ride much (imo)

Luke, I can give you a lift back to staines if you like

First off, sorry for the short notice on this one guys! We've been working with THORPE PARK and we are delighted to be able to offer our members an exclusive Colossus event, celebrating the rides 10th year! The event will include: 30 Mins of Exclusive Ride Time on Colossus at 6pm (park close) A talk on the history behind Colossus and "Exclusive Extras".... trust us, you will love them! We will plan to meet at around 5:40 outside Colossus, those who will be on park earlier give me a shout and we can arrange to meet before hand. Let me know via PM or post if your able to make it Attending: Marc Ian Sarah Mark9 Sam Luke_A Dominic Franczak Austyn Tommy Callum JoshC. Matt Jacob Dan Dan B Daniel Maycock Jordan Wood Shoaib Shahid Mer9 Valentez Chris F Annie Keith Templeman Jake Rayner Megan Lindup Lauren Somerfield Dan9 Peter (PeaJ) Maybe: Daniel9

Its all a little odd, in years gone by slammers had months at a time down and they've never removed the signs for it. I do hope it reopens, but I guess it could be a fair while if they have removed the signs around the ride!

Thanks for the feedback, glad so far its positive We will be changing a few things with the sites. Due to Alton Towers Mania / Chessington Mania not happening for the foreseeable future, these will redirect to the Forums, along with Maniahub.com. We also hope to look into launching a mobile version of TPM soon. Cheers Marc

Although considering a Blackpool pass is £190 for just one park, it don't seem too bad

This is something we are aware of, we plan to be refreshing some things like this soon Watch this space!

mmmm ribs lol

New message on TP.com SLAMMER will be unavailable until further notice...apologies for any inconvenience caused.

I thought Time Voyagers was Knights last year.

Unless your directly involved in the investigation I dont think your in a position to say this

- A new shorter advert now out Sorry about quality!

Can understand why you would be concerned, but ive never personally seen any problems with lockers, and they are probably much safer than taking your items on the rides. Regarding pockets, as long as its secure thats tine.

What makes you think the lockers are not safe? Id trust the new ones in the lower dome, and you can go to them as much as you like throughout the day without paying more money.

Noticed new life rings around the ride when I last went on..

^ yea it does I dont buy the whole you shouldnt have to brace your self... Your traveling near on 50mph, exposed to the elements through 10 inversions, of course you will need to brace your self, as you would on any intense ride (Even on b&ms...)

I dont really think Colossus's "roughness" is enough to to things such as spend millions on new trains / retracking it, aslong as you brace your self its fine really.

I'm sure they all reopened since then
