It's probably been asked before, but is the countdown timer in the console for? It had 24+ hours on there yesterday.

Swarm didn't open until the afternoon today. Effects were a bit meh, although I did see the fire go once and the LED's were on and the splash effect eventually working. It was an one train operation all day.

This morning was a nightmare for Thorpe with Swarm not opening til the afternoon, Saw having a few breakdowns, Nemesis having a breakdown and Vortex unable to stop itself. In the afternoon reliability was good though. Off Topic: It was EMPTY there today. I only get the chance to go once or twice a year but it shocked me how empty it was. Managed Swarm and Nemesis Inferno 7 times, Stealth 6 times, Colossus 4 times, and Saw 5 times!

Was at Thorpe today, nothing has changed (so it seems) since my last visit two weeks ago.

Saw is absolutely fine for me. I really don't see what people moan about. Completely understand about the moans about Colossus. That ride is just getting stupidly rough now.

Colossus will be open tomorrow (From Facebook): THORPE PARK Official Hi guys, yes Colossus should be back up and running tomorrow!

I never thought they were going to get rid of it completely, just sell that model and get a new one.

And think its pretty sh**

Ah OK, my bad. Just thought this could mean they were going to buy a new model.

Just found something very interesting on ridetraders.com. If the photos are the same as the item for sale, then Thorpe Park are selling Samurai! You need to search for it yourselves as it only appears as a search result. Go to Used Rides > Mondial and then its the first item for sale.

Inferno on the back row is just the as good as Nemesis in my opinion. Must of been as it was raining but it was really forceful last week. Anyway, when was the last time the mist was working anywhere on this ride?

The only worry I would have for you is Colossus, thats quite a tight squeeze sometimes.

This must be the worst year for breakdowns for ages.

I can promise both of you Slammer hasn't been on the scroller for months now. All it had said until recently is Samurai is currently unavailable and Stealth was undergoing essential maintenance.

No it hasn't! Since they've had it on Slammer page, they took it off the homepage scroller. You must be thinking about the Stealth message. Slammer hasn't been on the scroller for months now.

TPM on Twitter: Retweet if you can't wait to get back on SLAMMER! It's testing at the moment guys! #thorpepark

It hasn't been advertised on the homepage for ages!

Finally! Shame it wasn't open on Monday!

I wouldn't get my hopes up. I was there Monday, no work was being done to any of the closed rides.

Anyone at the park today? If so, was any work being done to Stealth?

Just got back home. Left the back at 4 as I was dying to use the loo! The water supply must of burst around 3 o'clock so thats why they were open! It looked like absolutely nothing was being done to Stealth all day, and definitely nothing was done to Samurai or Slammer. Colossus broke down for a little while, as did Tidal Wave (as it always does!). Thorpe Park really do need to sort out this 1 train in operation. 40min queues for Colossus and Swarm and there's absolutely no need for it.

Was there today, didn't see anything happening all day to Slammer, Samurai or Stealth.

On park now, slammer, stealth, and samurai still all closed. All toilets aren't working so all food outlets are closed and there giving away free tickets if you leave early. Swarm and Colossus on 1 train operation all day!!

Why would you want a view of X? Now that's the worst ride in the park and needs to go before Storm Surge.

Good to know. Anybody know what's going on with Stealth? Taking my brother who hasn't been since 2002, so really wants to know what Stealth is like!
