I thought that while watching it, theres no way that would fit in the current queue line. Just knew nothing about it

Never even knew X had a queue like that! Anyone know when that was removed and why?

There is actually a chain on that curve at the top of the lift which pulls the train, if you sit on the far left and look down at the track you can see it

It was 30-40 minutes yesterday on 1 train

Yeah it did open around midday yesterday, and then closed at half 1 and didn't re open for the rest of the day. However they did get it open for Summer Nights it seems.

In previous years they allow you to record the Blair witch project so they probably will this year

Everyone has different opinions, I've always say Fright Nights is a lot better but last year I'd say Tulleys was better. I'd go Tulleys if I was you seeing as they're all new mazes, but go to both if you can

The beach was a good location for the bit top because of the interaction of the bridge. With it changing location hopefully we will see a layout change and lots of improvements, as the big top was the worst maze I've done at Thorpe on all my run throughs.

Bit odd how they have fenced off the whole area for just 1 shipping container? Maybe now MBV has gone they could be moving big top to that location? Doubt it but never know

Does this explain why the glitching and flying objects seems to get a lot worse as the day goes on? The computers get too hot so don't run as well?

Agreed. Defiantly can't see loggers coming back. Old town would be the best place for a woodie...

At the moment Stealth is closed as it is awaiting a part, there is nothing the park can do except wait for it to arrive. It'll be back open soon

When you're in a queue for a coaster and someone tells a story about when it was stuck upside-down

On the subject noticed Ben and Jerrys by Vortex was open last time I went for the first time this season, maybe they only open it on peak days now they have Nitrogenie? Not a fan of Nitrogenie so glad it was open

Thats quite worrying... a throughput of 240 an hour. Must be running on reduced trains.

Nemesis Inferno is expected to be down all day today with Stealth. Tidal wave is also yet to open. Thorpe really isn't having the best of luck with rides at the moment

Where did you get this from? Was told capacity is 500 and I doubt it was £45million

Do the headsets get cleaned after every use? I saw a sign in the queue about them getting cleaned but the day I was there as we were boarding the train people were still getting off, so I don't get how its possible for them to clean the headsets?

10/10 - Gorillaz - Feel good

Where'd you see this? It closed at half 2 and didn't re open so would make sense

I wouldn't say so, they've never had more than 1 clown attraction at 1 of their parks, a lot parks/scare attractions have at least have 1 clown based attraction.

Note that it doesn't normally open till at least half 11 anyway. I'm sure they'll open it today at some point.

Thats what they were saying at this talk, if they develop this other island behind Swarm the plan is to connect it to Stealth, so basically this new island will connect Swarm and Stealth together.

Would be sad if loggers does go, by far my favourite water ride at the park. But personally I can't see it staying, would cost an awful lot to revamp. Could see the area being used for a major investment, take loggers, rocky and remainings of CCR out and they have a massive space to play with. Old town would be the best place for a woodie at Thorpe in my opinion, and if SW8 goes down well at Towers ya never know

It was indeed - It did it every time I rode it, however once it was for really long. Surely they are going to have to come up with something else for hold ups as most people on my trains thought there was something wrong, unless of course over time there are less hold ups. Staff were very quick at getting everyone on though so I'm not sure how boarding could be sped up. Luckily all 3 times I rode I had a different character. I was expecting more changes though, they all said the story in pretty much the same way. Anyone know how many characters there are on the first journey? I know of at least 4
