    Pretty sure X has 4 trains anyway? Surely it must be something to do with the ride system not being able to run 3 trains for some reason, they would surely have a 3rd train ready by now.

    Forgot to mention, X's speakers in the pyramid are fixed and are playing loudly again
  3. Not saying you're wrong, but when I was there on Sunday management told me they gave around 100 tickets out at random throughout the day, to non hotel guests. So non hotel guests have been on it
  4. Spoke to a few members of staff on Sunday. Apparently they gave out around 100 tickets randomly around the park to people to try it out as well as hotel guests. Also got told that Derren was there a few days ago and was impressed, it was literally tiny things that needed fixing which have been done, and that it's pretty much just staff training now. They also said that if these openings continue to go well it should be open within 1-2 weeks. Unsure if it opened again last night.
  5. Inferno music is sounding great again - The queue line is once again playing the entrance music instead of the animal sounds. Dispatch theme and station music is very loud The Inferno operator now wears a headset thing, and says down the PA "All checks compete, ready for dispatch" before they dispatch every single train. Must be a new thing from either yesterday or today, as they weren't doing that on Friday.
  6. Loads of staff in the same place yesterday as well, saw them all from Inferno
  7. Yesterday there were doors open and people working on the inside of the attraction

    Colossus

    It's being evac'd a hell of a lot this season
  9. It does look very good, but like Ryan said it does look like it hits that first trim pretty hard
  10. Apparently Flying Fish has it's single rider back as well now. Don't really see this being of much use as it never really gets a queue anyway, but good they are adding it to more rides
  11. Good they are doing that, but ride availability has been very poor the last few days.
  12. Lots of people on twitter claiming that Stealth has rolled back today! Seems the problems are still ongoing then, and Stealth has been shut since
  13. I don't see the problem with groups using single rider queues as long as that group is alright with being split up? It happens everywhere Would love to see Stealths single rider queue to be honest, and don't see why they couldn't. It doesn't require an extra staff member to operate it either. Hopefully if Vortex's and Samurais go well they can start adding it back to other rides.
  14. All coasters are closing at 6:30 today instead of 6 due to ride availability according to thorpes twitter
  15. Ah fair enough, I was going by the comment on that photo Good its back anyway
  16. So the fire is only turned on now when there is more than 8000 on park?
  17. Stealth and Inferno are good ones to go to first as you will literally get straight on both of them. If you are bothering with IAC I'd recommend doing then when it opens at 10 as well as that keeps a queue throughout the day. I don't think it makes much difference on Swarm, but the front row queue is always short on the Swarm due to there no being a specific queue, so I'd recommend doing it if you haven't before

    X has re-opened today
  19. Read the post above you
  20. Colossus is the only coaster at Thorpe I'd say needs a lick of paint?
  21. I hope Tidals open this Fright Nights just to see the sign

    Samurai

    According to queue times, Samurai is now open! Just waiting on the ghost train now
  23. I don't think its staggered openings as such because it's different rides which open late every day, it just depends what they can get ready. My point was that they struggle getting everything ready by half 9, I remember a day last year and less than half the rides were open.
