  3. Canada Creek Railway: The Bear Hunt

    in The Past

    Posted

    Discuss Thorpe's Canada Creek Railway here!Personally, I think it's a shame it was ever shortened. The route from the farm to Canada Creek where it went behind Burger King was the most exciting part, and the waft you got from BK was lovely. :P I see that for this year only (whilst it's closed), the bears from the railway are scattered around Loggers Leap. I take it they'll be returning to the railway next year?Also, along near Nemesis Inferno, I see the railway has not only long gone, but the landscaping has been done so well that newcomers to Thorpe would never have known it went down there! Is it all gone and well landscaped behind Burger King, and right the way to the farm?

    'Wheelz' At Beaulieu National Motor Museum is just a flat track.'The Spirit of London' At Madame Tussauds, however, is more similar to WWH. (e.g you travel upwards and downwards to different levels)

    Went on Wheels yesterday - wicked, legendary, bought back some memories of my youth. Click here for topic.The Spirit of London at Madame Tussauds is just fab!

    Yeah, the netting's bearable but the cobra roll does feel a bit overcrowded it's been added there. The cobra roll's the worst area for "net looks" IMO.Last month I went on the 5th and 27th. On the 5th Colossus was closed because they were still doing the nets. You could walk upto to the shop and no further, that's where it was blocked off from. The cobra roll pit was empty then. This was before the nets were added here. Same story with cobra roll pit on the 27th, when Colossus was back open and the nets had all been put up.Like I say, it was perfect at the start of the season, but it must've lasted until about early May before it went dry again.

    The closest Air gets to Nemmie is on Air's lift hill where it rises above the Nemesis' 180 degree turn/turnaround prior to entering the loop.I how love how Nemesis tackles getting over the station.Can you imagine this scene in the drawing room during the plans for Nemesis?DUMBASS DESIGNER: So, how will the track get over the station, we'll have to rise it up high or crash right through the station!JOHN WARDLEY: Simple, we'll put an inline twist in over the station!:)

    Before they built the hotel, there was a section near where you drive in, and in there was about 3 old, useless Bubbleworks tubs plus 1 or 2 buggered Skyway trains. They had been there donkeys years, but this is all gone and tidied up now, as they must've cleared it when the hotel construction began.

    Is it me or do both Nemesis rides have 3 inline twists each? Because I was under impression Inferno had more? And it was because of that reason I preferred Inferno.I have really warmed to Nemesis at Alton Towers since riding it for the first time nearly 3 years ago. It is legendary, I can see why people thought it was the most intense rollercoaster in the UK when it opened back in 1994. They say it still is and I disagree.Has the blood river been that red flow since it first opened?
