May 26, 20169 yr comment_235455 The small text at the bottom of the Ghost Train advert had now been edited to say '...opens soon', for those keeping track.
May 26, 20169 yr comment_235459 Better start planning the 2017 diary at this rate. Safe to say the park do need this open ASAP especially considering their recent gate figures. At the same time, to the best possible standard.
May 26, 20169 yr comment_235465 Why are so many people hoping that it opens in 'the best possible standard'? it's really sad a lot of UK enthusiasts now worry this wouldn't be the case anyway (thanks Zufari for underwhelming everyone so much with your big dreams, poor budget restraints and project planning).
May 26, 20169 yr comment_235472 Have come to the conclusion that I will visit Thorpe as often as I can. If Derren is open when I visit that will be a bonus. I guess it will open when it is ready.
May 26, 20169 yr Author comment_235479 There was some filming going on around th queue line today. Also the queue board has been updated to "Suspended"

Sound like the Ghost Train has been naughty, like footballers that get suspended from matches. "Now Ghost Train, You had a party didn't you and were not match fit for the big game on the 6th, I am afraid the board has suspended you for 5 games" For all those who think this ride is the next coming:

May 27, 20169 yr comment_235498 Or suspended like the big massive carriage in the middle of that warehouse?
May 27, 20169 yr comment_235499 Dunno if anyone has asked it today yet.... Is the ghost train open yet? On the upside... We're one day closer to the ride opening than we where yesterday

We're one day closer to the ride opening than we where yesterday And many people are one day closer to lying on their deathbed realising they wasted too much time and energy on worrying and moaning about what week a theme park attraction opens. Yay.

Who would have thought Thorpe would have thought of this completely unheard of idea of saying a train is suspended! Like Trains! Which is the theme! Ha! That's made my day! GG Thorpe!
May 27, 20169 yr comment_235511 Now it's in there is there any chance they can squeeze the carousel back in?

May 27, 20169 yr comment_235515 I'm beginning to think the next person who makes the 'Derren Brown's Bus Replacement Service' joke should get a one way ticket to Bansville...

BUT They would have to redo the whole structure. And relocate it to across the road where the site office currently is for the new ride. Would be nice but I don't see it happening

May 28, 20169 yr comment_235526 Will be on park today so I'll post anything that could be considered exciting/interesting Also, not sure if this has already been posted, but the adverts now say 'Coming Soon' and not 'End of May'.

May 28, 20169 yr comment_235536 Goodness it's painful to read through this topic sometimes... Back onto topic, one thing to note is how quiet Thorpe Park's social media has been since the announcement. I hope that this isn't to do with being harassed in the comments about the ride as that's really quite unnecessary if they feel the need to stop posting to avoid this. It also makes me think there may be an increase of activity around the time a revised opening date could be announced?
