  1. Some massive spoilers on Thorpes official snapchat 'realthorpepark' which I had to quickly skip through Videos inside the attraction
  2. How did you find this out?
  3. Cal replied to Artie's topic in The Past
    No. It'll be opening soon
  4. For Premium annual pass holders its completely free. I also think you can just turn up whenever, or you can book tickets online to guarantee entry incase the park reaches capacity.

    I have seen a third train sitting there, but unsure if they still have 4. I'd assume they would still have all 4 as they are fairly new trains anyway.

    Yup think it ran 5 back in the day, and it has 4 now but only ever seen them use 3 at once. Lol it hardly even gets 400 on 3 trains, with the new procedures like checking the bars twice and 2 people per row the throughput really isn't great.

    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
  9. 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
  10. 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.
  11. 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.
  12. Loads of staff in the same place yesterday as well, saw them all from Inferno
  13. Cal replied to Ryan's topic in General Discussion
    Yesterday there were doors open and people working on the inside of the attraction
  14. Cal replied to Adam J's topic in General Discussion
    It's being evac'd a hell of a lot this season
  15. Cal replied to Sam P's topic in UK Attractions
    No
  16. It does look very good, but like Ryan said it does look like it hits that first trim pretty hard
  17. 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
  18. Good they are doing that, but ride availability has been very poor the last few days.
  19. Cal replied to Dan_Rush's topic in General Discussion
    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
  20. 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.
  21. All coasters are closing at 6:30 today instead of 6 due to ride availability according to thorpes twitter
  22. Cal replied to JoshC.'s topic in General Discussion
    Ah fair enough, I was going by the comment on that photo Good its back anyway
  23. Cal replied to JoshC.'s topic in General Discussion
    So the fire is only turned on now when there is more than 8000 on park?
  24. 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
