Theme Park bloke

It gives you panic attacks and it's a waste of space. Right, deicision made, Detty shall go.*sigh*

Inside them, it may be doing a tiny bit of damage, but this is not visible to the naked eye.

Yes, I realise that Seb - but Alex is implying otherwise. He was asked to prove that Sam had left Thorpe, and he posts a picture from when it left Chessie.

OMG, I do not believe you! A building will not fall down due to damp. But it can have serious effect on the walls, no so much that it's structurally putting anything or itself at risk.

Hmm, is that Tomb Blaster I see in the distance?This is getting out-of-hand now.

Damp-wise, is this good for the tunnels etc?

Yes, certainly - take this picture for example, from the latest Dylan update. I can't view the picture at this link:http://content.maniahub.com/photo/Thorpe/1...an/P1090320.JPGAnd it's the same with many others.

To be honest mate, I didn't really notice that Samurai really is cutting off SAW earlier when I posted, but now I see what you mean.And yes, you've offended me.

It says correct as of 11th May 2008. No it ain't!And, Mr Hicks... ...where did I say that?I didnt say it.

A lot of images on TPM aren't displaying. They were OK the other day.

All this week I've been seeing the ad on Channel 4 for Heather Mills on Star Stories. Does anyone know what music is used in this? It's the light music, very relaxing.

Judging by that picture, it's apparent that Corkscrew hasn't been dismantled yet, although I heard it had been already.

If your friend believes that, he'll believe anything. All that time re-routing the railway? The engineers will go mad!

No, it's definately Canada Creek. Otherwise it would be turqouise Lost City colours.The Lost City hasn't really got a logo has it, so it would be good to see one developed. According to Wikipedia it's based around a Mayan temple/land. :mellow:Also, interesting pic I found of the whole park:

The version I've got only has the trumpets missing, other than that the track is exactly the same as the one played on Colossus. For a few seconds worth of trumpets, it ain't worth surfing the www - if anything, I prefer it without the trumps.

They were still on there with the scaffolding surrounding them during the middle of November. I can't believe they've had to take them off again, it shows what complicated technology Slammer really is. Have they sent them back to S&S again? Because this time, surely, if they have been sent back, S&S should either replace them or get some staff to England to have a detailed look at the problems. No, and I couldn't care. Honestly, I'm sick of this stupid 13th-every-month thing Thorpe keep doing. The novelty's worn off. We all know it's Saw and what the theme is - a bit different if we didn't know the name.

It probably thought "Sod this, I much prefer to swing over Maccy D fries!"I think this year has gotta be it's worst downtime since Vekoma put the new trains in. And even if the problems are lift hill related, there's still no sign of scaffolding on the first one, now that the park is closed. Remember that when you go past the Monkey Puzzle on the Leatherhead Road, you can see the first lift hill peeking out behind the building, and the lift hill mechanism and cog.Plus you can see the Nosferatu window if you're in slow traffic!

You mean on the earth-shuddering drums section? On a copy I have, it has the drums without the trumpets.Anyway, are those lovely green Bose outdoor speakers going to be put in for Saw? And is new music being composed, or is Saw film music going to be used?So many questions, so few answers.

That was very geeky.Even though Colossus' track is for the ride, the track itself is actually officially known as Lost City music. Hence why it partly used on Vortex.

I think his name was Simon.

Is that the section just after the camera, as you do the slow 180 degree turn before the inline twists?I had the strangest dream about Colossus recently. I dreampt a recreation of it was done on a steep cliff near the sea. It was so odd because the train would leave the station and not actually hit rollercoaster track until the bottom of the lift hill. Then instead of turning left at the top for the descent, it would turn right. You went through the loop as normal, and the bunny hop towards the cobra roll was so big and long, it dived down to about 50 metres above sea level - however it seemed to slow down here and not really go through a cobra roll. Yes, it eventually turned round and powered back up to the land, but it did not go into corkscrews. This was the most oddest part, where it slowed right down and all of a sudden it changed from an Intamin coaster to a B&M inverter! It then continued some odd route, slowing down at points, there was no inline twists either, but there was one section where it powered up so fast for a Stealth-type top hat B&M inverter syle! I can't remember how it ended.

I already have the music, plus every other Thorpe Park tune that's going out there. Let's be realistic though, the only crackling Speakers are on Slammer which do need to be fixed, the old music is OK but the new one is so much better. The old music is some tune they dug up from somwhere on this planet, it's heard from radio station competitions to big annual events. The new one however was composed for the park. As for the Vortex theme, what's changed, except a new announcement in it? And the old Detonator music, please yes, let's have it back. I have 3 tracks of the old Detonator music. I have the full theme tune, the "5, 4, 3, 2, 1, Explosion" countdown, and the countdown with the rasising music.Click here for the old main theme

Is it water or steam that shoots into the hole?

Are talking about the supports here or track? And when you say foundations, do you mean the piling?

Mark, cast your mind back to about 2005 - do you remember a chap working in Falls with blonde hair and a bushy beard? Quite young. He always used to organise the queueline into 2's, 3's or 4's really well, he would shout out.
