That's just stupid. I understand that rides break, but for all that to happen in one day (plus Swarm being on one train until 12 noon) is just poor! Didn't keep it open any later to compensate then? Must say I laughed at this!

This reaction is just like the Alton Towers fan's reaction was when BPB won best park on Tripadvisor! Must say I want to visit Europa one day.

That's not on! In fact it's Oakwood style bad...

Last year I visited on every Sunday (apart from the one in school holidays) and they were all very reasonable, with the first Sunday being dead after 7pm and the second one dead after 8pm. It might not be the same this year though as the event isn't on for as many weekends.

Everyone leaving at closing suggests that they should have been open later... It depends where you are in the car park as to how long it takes to leave - if you are right at the back then it could take an hour longer!

I am very saddened to hear that LWV are selling the "Wild River Rapids" as well. I know they were a travelling model but they were actually fantastic, and everything Storm Surge should have been! From my view, I think the park is being forced to sell this and Whirlwind as it is in a poor financial position, which is a shame as it is a brilliant park.

Just waiting to see who would spot that one first

There is loads of room in the Loggers queueline for a bag drop, all they would have to do is cut off the ends of a few cattlepens.

Last year's event was fairly busy, but rides had short queues. We still had time to do all the mazes though.

The whole ride, surrounding area and station building need a complete overhaul. Log Flumes can last pretty much indefinitely, but they have to be looked after!

I doubt they do really, considering all the trouble that Slammer and Rush have brought them over the years.

It was on a Friday last year.

Thanks, they had changed the name of the link.

Ghost Train! There is the perfect space for it in the Arena.

With it being a Thursday I can imagine it being quite a bit quieter than last year, which was on a Friday.

Where has the ride availability page gone on the website?

It is very deceptive, but is overly steep which gives the effect of being much bigger. http://www.coasterforce.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=21843&start=519

It has never been like that. It used to be free to enter, then they introduced the £5 charge (now £6) which was exactly the same as it is now. It's my favourite park so yes it does matter

The Flume at Towers is much longer isn't it?

Yes I know, but if you buy a wristband then you don't buy that as well. That is only for if you don't want to go on rides/want to go on a few with tokens.

Yes it can, but not a few lines added on to a safety speech

Detonator...

Another small teaser trailer... https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=10152644163720867 I can't believe it is only 5 weeks until Fright Nights!

Err, what? If you buy a wristband at Blackpool you don't have to pay the £6 entry fee, that is just for people who don't want to go on rides. Where did you hear that?

Oh yeah, my bad! It never has said the "hold on tight and brace yourselves" bit on the launch.
