^ The 'discount' rumour is very likely, I remember another rumour about Rita being for another park but it fell through so that's why Towers got it on the cheap. Unknown why Thorpe didn't go with the full Xcellerator layout, but space and cost are obvious suggestions. But the idea of Rita and Stealth supposedly being fused together is just the talk of idiots.

Not sure we can make it at opening, but me and Loose Steel Bluth would love to take advantage of these magic pass tickets, Coasterdude

If an element called a 'non-inverting loop' counts as any inversions, then there is something wrong happening in the world.

Someone's planning a trip to Japan I see

Cringle, such a throwback!

Short answer: Yes

But... You already have it?

Jordanluke, if you don't have anything constructive to add to a topic then please don't as this constitutes spamming constructive kənˈstrʌktɪv/ adjective 1. having or intended to have a useful or beneficial purpose. "constructive advice"

More weight leads to more likelihood of collisions between the final break run and station drives, as the tyre drive on that transfer track is the only thing stopping cars (no brake fins)

Well the more a train is used, the more maintenance it is likely to need; and more dispatches per day means an increase in power usage. So it's kind of dependent on a few factors and chance whether it would cost more. The difference in cost would be fairly minimal in the grand scheme of running a theme park

They do return tickets (bounce back I think it's called) It only works on full price tickets though

Not sure to laugh or cry that a ride is running as per normal and it's 'great news'

I was at Towers on Wednesday and Air, Nemesis, and Rita were on one train all day and Th13teen on two. I think Oblivion was on 4 cars, loading one station. Granted there was no need for more than one train as everything was literally walk on, but the 'Alton always does' arguement doesn't hold up

Wishful thinking

My favourite post in that section is this one I.e. this conversation is redundant:

The gender ratio has stayed constant for years and years whether we have had female moderators or not; it is also similar throughout the entire community Please drop any of the moderator team a PM to outline who has behaved in this way and where

I'd take it as a compliment Josh

The Thorpe Park Mania website has a huge audio collection so be sure to take a look at that

Have you ever been to a free theme park?

^ No need to be rude

Oh I read it but ignored it as it's just not true. There are separate engineering teams who are trained only certain rides in the park (similar to the rides staff), so they wouldn't 'all' be at Stealth Engineers cannot operate rides in the day, as the rides are either handed over to 'Engineering' or 'Operations (Or a word of a similar effect)' - Unless the rules have changed

An engineer is always needed when taking off or putting on a train

^ And lego aren't even open some weekdays in september (Or at least not last year)
