Derren Brown's Ghost Train: Rise of the Demon
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

Derren Brown's Ghost Train: Rise of the Demon
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.

Nemesis Inferno
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.

Loads of staff in the same place yesterday as well, saw them all from Inferno

Containment
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
- The Blade
-
Sea World
It does look very good, but like Ryan said it does look like it hits that first trim pretty hard
-
Single Rider
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
-
Park Operations
Good they are doing that, but ride availability has been very poor the last few days.
-
Stealth
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
-
Single Rider
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.

Thorpe Park Trip- July
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
