THE SWARM: Construction Updates
SR would depend entirely on how easy it is to implement it and if it would work well enough.Towers will almost always add single riders to their big attractions and plan for it (and its relatively expected of them now), whereas thorpe naturally have a different way of running.

Closed Season
Yeah, they have little else they can do apart from watch and ensure they don't damage anything - which urban explorers don't do.Quite fascinating photos, I love pictures from these guys!

THE SWARM: Construction Updates
Diesel is correct - it was gutted when seen at towers in september (though, me not being a plane geek or anything just thought they made it rather than just brought in a plane!)

Hyde Park Winter Wonderland
Doubt it. I imagine rent of that site is incredibly expensive.However, it'll probably be their most profitable site of the year anyhow. And ultimately, that's fair enough. People are seemingly willing to spend £6.

Chessington General Discussion
I think a show does add to the infrastructure and families, but ride investment really does need to come about NOW.If the show is done well, like mingolands, then we're onto a winner and money well spent. Chances of it being so though?

Blackpool Pleasure Beach
Definitely worth doing. It's a fantastic park I think... loads are so negative of the place, that I rather enjoyed my first visit this year!

Awww, I love how parents like to embarrass their kids.Never really been embarrassed about posting on them. As long as I don't get lumped with the obsessed people, then I'm okay! My parents go down the childhood sad route rather than anything else, as someone may or may not eventually find out

^ I've never understood removing the free travel for police. It adds extra policing onto the trains, and essentially should be treated like a ghost in the system - these people wouldn't otherwise have been on the train, so you're not physically losing revenue, yet you're getting an amazing service from it. It's ridiculous for them to have "priced" it up. As obviously if people paid, they wouldn't get half as much travel.Winds me right up when people value free items, like when companies give you free benefits which cost zero to them, but then decide to remove it because of the potential revenue lost (even though they'll never, ever make it).The only time I ever argue with people is if I've done it before and it's been allowed countless times, and then be challenged by it. Confidence is there, and then you'll usually win. I do completely agree that ticketing is far too confusing, and that the whole changing names of the tickets have not helped (there's now 3 different offpeak ticket prices for my line, for example), gah. Just do what grand central does, and make it clear, easy and concise. Not difficult. Could even boost revenue.

^ True, however peaktime is restricted to minimum fare of £12, single or return. So he gets the deal which is valid in peak times I presume.
