Truly depressing seeing the state of the posters in the queue line on Ghost Train. Can't quite believe they'd make the same mistake again to be honest, could they not have some sort of plastic cover over the top? Appreciate someone might scratch it but the posters would still look good from a distance.

I would imagine shipping containers on the picnic area plaza where Saw Alive queueline used to be.

Just saw an ad on TV featuring Ghost Train - new, or do I just not normally watch ads 😂

Was that teddy fella used at all last year? I don't recognise him but could be cos I'm a fake fan.

Would be odd calling it Odyssey considering Colossus was Project Odyssey - or maybe this will be "a nod" to Colossus if you will, or an easter egg zzzzzzzzzzzz

Just turn the bloody thing off already, that's hideous. It's slowly dying, and if they move those new dead pixel panels to the bottom like they did before, there'll be even less of a usable screen.

I still think the idea of some pre-booking "extreme" up charge type situation is the only short term future for the "experience" before it's moth balled. Pre-booking & up charge means you know what money is coming in to justify the staffing and costs of powering the thing on in the morning. As previously mentioned, customer feedback on Facebook is particularly awful, good comments are about 1 in 30 I'd say.

Some juicy queues today with the park being advertised as sold out. Stealth was at 160 minutes earlier! Not quite sure how/why today in particular is a sell out day? Inset day? People on strike?

Sorry but not sorry for double posting, but obviously, if there HAS been a crack found anywhere, there's no way on earth that Thorpe are going to say "Yes, Premium MAP holder, much beloved for supporting the Merlin empire with your hot dogs in Thermos flask, the track has massive ruddy crack in it, sorry fella"

Completely off topic, but kudos for your avatar on here @Benin 🙏

Very nasty to mention Mr. Monkey in this situation considering it's SBNO at the moment 🙃

I feel the fact that it isn't even referenced on the app does not bode well.

They need to bring back being asked if anyone is scared of spiders in the "plinth" room after the pre-show I think. I might get to ride experience if/when I get to FRT NTS this year, otherwise, it'll be 2024 when they bring back the Demon.

It's to film the new series of this television masterpiece. https://youtu.be/265BhqcgD2Q?t=839

It's been removed from the queue times app.

I wonder if it wouldn't hurt to have something on the entrance sign with some sort of tagline to say it was an "experience" etc. People will just expect that it is a ride and not an actor led Dungeons-esque experience.

GST TRN seems to be continually in my socialz as a sponsored post so I like to see what people are commenting. Seems to be universally panned by those that ride, but I think the main issue is that people don't feel it's worth it vs. the queue length, so straight away they are expecting a lot because of waiting so long. I won't get to ride until Fright Nights most likely, when it'll probably be on version 3.0 and/or a special Engineering Works version for spooky szn.

Oh it's THEM! I'm always on the peripheral of seeing cOMmUnItY drama on Twitter, but do remember all these things happening. Jack and the chaps are far more savvy (and maybe... just nicer?!) from what I see online and the content they put out - the only faux pas Jack has really made is the whole "Fright Nights speculation" thing when he knew exactly what was happening as was involved with the whole creative process, however, he handled that very well in explaining it, and was quite a unique situation as he couldn't really SAY that he knew about things until the teasers started. tldr: Love JCK SLKSTN ❤️

Oh wow, they really are minimising the amount of panels they use on that screen now 😆 I have no idea why they haven't got the dead panels fixed, I can only assume that it's too old to replace, or, they just don't care.

Inferno is down for unplanned maintenance according to Thorpe Park themselves. Possibly a lift hill issue, people are speculating. Inferno was absolutely flying when we rode in May, ruddy fantastic couple of rides!

Why is no-one talking about the elephant (monkey) in the room? This iconic ride has yet to open this year...

Merlin definitely taking the "second only to Disney" mantra seriously by introducing a £12 one shot fasttrack for the Winged Monkey Boi Ride.

Pretty jealous tbh.

Important question - did anyone ever find out who the real Shane Sandwich and Park Pixie were in the Theme Park Fok videos? True icons, the pair of them.

Oh good! Misinformed by the MAP group and the app 😱
