  4. I might be able to do this now but won't arrive until 5:30/6pm due to work

  7. Well that makes Ferrari Land look decent now. Such a bizarre addition of an investment for certain
  8. They might have only just begun but it's already looking beautifully impressive especially with all those other coasters behind. Great to see the UK finally receive a Mack Mega.
  9. Barney approves of Millennium's new colour scheme.
  10. I'd probably agree the same that it'll be additional checks/maintenance following the tragic Ohio incident. It's still reassuring though to see the park carry out extensive maintenance like this to ensure rides run safely.
  11. It makes me somewhat happy that Eurosat was given a deserving sendoff, especially being a fun and iconic ride experience. Would be great if more places did goodbye events to rides when they are removed,even if Eurosat's will be more of an excessive upgrade. Opening Silver Star this winter is a good move for the park (if the weather holds out) and makes me wonder if this could become a recurring thing in future years.
  12. Definitely a good idea for Efteling, especially to offer a way for those less able to experience the attraction to some extent. I believe Droomvlucht received a major safety update around 2008 which I read recently. Not sure if less abled people have ever been able to ride.
  13. Doesn't matter, get to have creds.
  14. If Benin doesn't win the sarcasm award, is it really the TPM forum rewards?
  15. I can honestly say Liseberg is one of the easiest European parks to get out to. A 1.5-2 hour flight from Heathrow (BA), Gatwick (Norwegian) or Stanstead (Ryanair), followed by a shuttle that goes from the airport directly outside the park. Very handy. Liseberg boasts three top (hopefully soon) four quality coasters and what is arguably one of the best flat collections in any park. Think Towers is scheduled for April. A provisional meet lineup for 2018 has now been made.
  16. Not necessarily a bad thing, although bizarre how it's been disabled. Think the system just adds unneeded jealousy to back row riders personality.
  17. It needs to be remembered that Blackpool Pleasure Beach aren't a large organisation and don't have swathes of financial fat like Disney or Universal. Although hopefully the dark days of when the park was deeply into the red and closing things left right and centre are over, the park's financial growth was still down this year. There's still some way to go before the park is to shine a healthy financial green once again. It must be rememebered the park are building a major coaster next year and for a park like Blackpool it will be a lot of money and won't be cheap for sure. If there was the choice to install this major addition or restore most of Valhalla's effects, I'd certainly choose Icon. Who knows, if Icon is (hopefully) a success and brings the park lots of money, they will get sufficient budget to retain running Valhalla's effects. It can't be easy for them to upkeep such a massive dark water ride. The park can't be all neglected though if they've done things like reprinting Revolution (agsin) and other things. Every Park unfortunately will have some areas rundown/not look their best. Even parks like Efteling and Phantasialand dare I say!
  18. I highly suspect a new entrance and queue line are highly likely amongst the ride receiving a Walking Dead type theme perhaps. X has struggled with personality for many years now, so would be great if they can finally make it stand out. Who knows what will come from the old entrance area?
  19. Absolutely over joyed for these awards returning.
  20. Those views of seeing Troy upon entering look excellent. This park is certainly growing to became a Magic Land.
  21. I know the meet in the past has always been the last weekend before Christmas, but that's getting a bit obscene now surely.
  22. I can't see Canada Creek Railway returning anytime soon unfortunately. As others have mentioned much of the track has now been removed and the locomotives will probably require a lot of work to restore them to working order again. Whats more, much of the space the trains once circuited cannot be used Platform 15 and the kids flats occupy a large swathe of this space now. Even the station is now used for Tug's queue line as a fact. Cannot see them demolishing the existing/remaining structures until they need to. I guess the fate of Loggers could conclude this.
  23. In all fairness enthusiasts aren't all the same, which is probably a more of a good than a bad in all honesty. What's top class to one person may be mediocre and overrated for someone else. Take Nemesis for example, whilst many love that coaster (myself included), there are a noticeably number of enthusiasts who will say it's overrated. I personally hate Rita, but know a fair amount of people love it. The list could really go on. Helix & Taron are my top two that's certain.
  24. Can someone let me know when the date is again? I know nothing.
