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.

Click here for the Stealth construction mini-site "how does it work pictures" section at Thorpe Park.com = still on their website! These are some of Stealth's finest pictures. Well, we all know how smooth B&M inverters are. It was once. Kleenex?I know what you mean though, it's bunny hop is well designed. At the hop's peak, you are level with the window in the shop, so it makes everyone look twice ahead, thinking they're gonna end up in the shop! On my very first ride I ducked because I thought I was gonna hit my head on the underneath of the shop!

TapiocaCoors or Coors light?

I sometimes wonder why they invented the Nintendo DS. Some of the games they make for it are just awful! Look after your own puppy-type games and other simple ones that you can find elsewhere are just a few prime examples. The only decent one is a coking tutorial.

That queue looks awesome. Blood on the floor? Wicked.So if they've got a fastrack queue and a main queue, I assume this is the first coaster to be built at Thorpe in years without a front seat queue?Mind you, we don't need it.

Yep, it was built in 1998 and opened that year. There's a good construction archive at Thorpe Park Guide.comAlso, I dunno if there would be enough room for an Enterprise in Rodeo's old home. Chessie will never get one, gaurunteed.

There is the sample of the Quantum music on his website. I really like this album cover, which is no longer available:

On most rides, mine's usually about 5 clicks.

Hang on, in 2000 Vamp still had the old cars but in 2001's overhaul it had the new Vekoma ones put on for 2002. So in 2000 it would've been the same as 1990.

Well nor was Vampire when it was 10 in 2000.

Huh?

I think everyone has forgotten that this year Rattlesnake was 10 years old.

No source.Brand new beige wheels are seen on Colossus at the start of every season - you cannot fail to miss that!

Does anyone know where I can find the WWTP jingle on it's own without the "WWTP Radio!" voice? I'm after a crisp, clear version.

No we cannot. And new trains is not going to sort out the roughness. Don't forget each train has a new set of wheels for every season, and at the beginning of the seasons, the ride is still rough! Yes, as my mate with size 15 once found out! Being dragged off the top of any lift hill is great! I must ride Nemesis at the back when I go back in February!

Detonator seems to be 50/50. Some days it has a good days and and some it has bad. It seems that since they introduced the awful music that you can't hear when walking past it hs gone downhill. I haven't rode it since mid-2006. Another thing I hate is the rumbling noise it makes from the box at the side when the catch car is driving back down.

Enough of what? I have not started anything.People can't see here that it wasn't safe to let it get up the lift hill before letting them off. Because I certainly wouldn't let that happen. People here are turning around what I am saying. If they can't see that letting it get up the lift hill wasn't safe before hitting the emergency stop button, then that's not my fault. Surely before the despatch the ride operator must have realised something was wrong, because then the team would've realised and not let anyone load, thus evacuating the queueline. It's a bit different if it left the station and that point they realised something was wrong.It is clear it left the station and headed for the lift hill, they then hit the emergency stop button. Therefore a ride operator and other employees are responsible. No, no, no, no, no! And this is where people are wrong. Cripes at this rate I'm gonna have to spell it out sentance for sentance, for actually what happened, and what should have happened. I'm sorry Mark, but you've seen it just like everyone else has here - completely wrong.

Exactly the point everyone's missing - it got halfway up the damn hill before it e-stopped. It shouldn't have! If you suspect something's wrong, let the last train finish and then investigate it.

No, I'd hold people back. I wouldn't even test-run an empty train. Loading the train and risking lives is not an option.

I just wish they'd update the ride photos in the queueline. The same one's been there for years! Especially the girl in the pink with hands over her eyes and her hair flying right back.

Yeah, I love that one too. Loved it more before it got rethemed.

Well I'm glad that's that cleared up. That picture had me baffled.

And you've just been reported!Just because we're all visitors and you're a ride operator, and visitors don't know that much, are we all morons? Because according to you we are.Well Peter, I know how things work, and I know I'm right on this.
