I like both of these posts. it's only dawned on me recently that its another B&M for crying out loud. One of the best coaster companies in the world is being constructed less than an hour away then most of the members on this forum. Can't wait.

The intriguing point with that is the only parks I've seen it enforced is at Thorpe and Chessington. For years I've had to put up with views of other peoples dirty socks on Air, hell I rode Superman de Acero in some rather delightful yellow socks a few years back.

I think anyone with any common sense would have that kind of reaction if they were about to go to Disneyland in the same day they were told about it.Bless her

All my friends are missing.COME BACK MICHAELA!

A set of trim breaks are on the bottom of the drop. The same kind that are on Air when you come out of the lying down position.

I just had a squee moment there. Just dawned on me proper that we've got a brand new B&M being built in the UK. Just look at it. Beautiful stuff!

Eleventh point down where it says "High healed shoes are not permitted." Whilst I am surprised tyhey adhered to that rule, you can't feign ignorance if you didn't read the signage board at the entrance.

Thanks to everyone who has posted their construction pics on here for everyone to see. They're fantastic images. :)I also don't mind the trims as much as the next coaster enthusiast. The best parts of Raptor was when the train was at a more crawling pace.

Josh C pulled a rather hot bird during lunch hours.

We're just using Raptor as a basis considering it's the only other ride that we can gain an understanding on for how Swarm will work. You hit that top break on Raptor (yes, the one after the slow inline) and then stop. On every other B&M I've ridden, the train always stops outside the station ready to come in when the train in the station has left. For some reason this doesn't happen on Raptor. Instead the train moves from the top break area, into the bottom at quite a speed, you stop briefly again and then move into the station. This as you can imagine wastes quite a bit of time as by the time you reach the station, the other train has already left the lift hill.Now whether Swarm will work like that considering it seems to have three break areas remains to be seen. Just at the moment, that part of track layout looks very similar to Raptor.As for trims, Superman de Acero and Raptor are notable ones I've ridden where they remain on. They are both excellent though, regardless so it shouldn't effect Swarm's effect hugely.

Loooking at the recent pics, if its anything like Raptor, it will stop at that top set of breaks.

Speaking of which...

To answer ones question, the first block section on Raptor is where the train stops. When the train in the station has left, you move into the second block section and stop briefly. Maybe B&M encountered some kind of problem because of the length of the train, I don't know but thats how it worked and I am assuming is how Swarm will work. I wouldn't worry though, the speed the train goes going round a simple corner is quite considerable. think Thirteens fast bit of track as it returns to the station.

Same. There's such a huge difference between staff getting a free go with no queues and paying people having to wait in long lines for a go. One remembers how loved Seven was when it first opened in 2005...

Edited for accuracy. Why you keep pretending that CWOA could happen in the future is completely beyond me. Just be honest

People visiting decent theme parks probably.

What makes you think this is management

Prefer it this way. The side plates made getting into the train even more difficult then it is now. having to squeeze between side plates and the old restraints was a nightmare.

Nothing to do with you two.

Double Post but ah well.Whiny little bitches. Shut the hell up and man up. Stop creating problems out of thin air

See the planes take off from Heathrow... AND CRASH MWAHAHAHAH.

Quite a poor way to end the series. If you didn't watch but are going to, the rest of this post will be a spoiler.My main issue is how everything is so easy. The Doctor's death is a fixed point, easy, take what was quite a poor part of "Lets Kill Hitler" and make that the conclusion to what has turned out to be a 5 month series. I think even the Flesh storyline would have felt more satisfying, even if would have been more obvious, it dramatically would have been more cohesive.More importantly though, I absolutely HATE IT when a series has to have more questions then answers at the finale.Who is Doctor Who?More importantly, who cares who he is. I've coped not knowing his name and who he is for the 48 years of series now, it makes no difference what he is or what he may have done to become a question mark. Moffatts series is to scared to even try and answer that question anyway. This series has shyed itself away from emotional consequences by having the regulars die every story that its not dramatic anyway. The timey wimey stuff is also a bit samey now. When Blink did it, it was so clever and brilliant. Now everytime it's a Moffatt script you know whats coming. Parts of scenes cut away until they are needed, the whole story never shown. Thank god the 1971 Pertwee story, Colony in Space has arrived, time for a fun, action story.

I want to play poker with gaga.
