Is this... (from the SAW topic, off topic...)the bag room in XNWO?As I lose all sense of which bit of the pyramid I'm in, where abouts is Hellgate in the pyramid? I know it's by Colossus, but when you're inside the pyramid, does anybody actually know whereabouts it is? Like, is it by that fire exit that appears to open into another dark room after the ramp bit just before you go round the corner and get to the *new and not improved* bag room?Also, I know sound proofing does wonders but someone told me that on XNWO on Fright Nights you can hear some noise from Hellgate (screams, mainly). Can you? I never have.Thank you cool theme park people!

Saw- Construction Thread
I know it's not necessarily a definitive source, but on lastminute.com it says...Please note: New ride Saw is not available until the main season starts on March 20. I thought the countdown on the ride website ran out March 13th, and main season would start the next day?Here's the link...http://www.lastminute.com/site/entertainme...mp;catID=110608

Colossus
Ooh - what happened in 'behind the loops', I don't remember it being said on the forums (and I know you're probably not allowed to say too much), but a general idea? I'd love to hear what it was like!

Canada Creek Railway: The Bear Hunt
Did the Canada Creek Railway always go through a 'tunnel' section?Or am I just majorly misinterpreting this photo (it's from the latest SAW construction photo update)

Logger's Leap
Are they shutting Loggers early for Fright Nights this year?We went on Sunday (19th) and it was open all day, but at 8pm-ish when we went over there for a ride in the dark it was shut, drained and no one was in sight. Odd, because last year we had great fun on it! Maybe people weren't behaving on it in the dark last year...?

Thorpe Park Videos
Think they could have gone to the effort of having new videos rather than just re-using last eyar's for Hellgate, The Asylum and Seven - and while 'The Curse' video is a little basic, it's enough to entice me.The Thriller one's mad!

Time Voyagers
"Interestingyness"Looks like Pirates 4D went across the pond, state-side. I don't know how I came across it, but I pasted it below. for source-ness, I found it here. clicky.(it's 11 paragraphs up from the bottom of the page)SeaWorld San Diego Located on Mission Bay, this 150-acre park features five major shows and dozens of exhibits containing marine life from around the globe, including Wild Arctic, Penguin Encounter, Shark Encounter, and Manatee Rescue. SeaWorld San Diego’s newest attraction, ‘‘Pirates 4-D,’’ is a humorous tale of a hapless crew and its wacky captain; the film stars actors Leslie Nielsen and Eric Idle. More than a movie, ‘‘Pirates 4-D’’ introduces a fourth dimension to the traditional cinematic experience, using special effects to produce sprays of water, blasts of air and other wild surprises.SeaWorld San Diego’s newest show, Cirque de la Mer opens in May. Cirque de la Mer takes guests on a journey....I didn't know they had anything going in America, other than the billions of Madame Tussauds' going up everywhere. Why would they sell it to America? I thought it was gonna end up at Alton, or do a swap with Gardaland. Am I being stupid?Ta
