March 13, 20169 yr comment_229585 Guru Josh Project - Infinity (2008) I think that's the one mate! Noticed this ride was just using trains 1 and 4 today. Am I right in thinking this still has/can operate with five trains at once?
March 13, 20169 yr comment_229586 THEY'VE ACTUALLY PUT THE INFINITY PROJECT ON IT? MY DREAM HAS COME TRUE
March 13, 20169 yr comment_229588 Noticed this ride was just using trains 1 and 4 today. Am I right in thinking this still has/can operate with five trains at once? Just 3 now I believe. It doesn't stop on the block brakes like it used to on now way out when it ran 5 trains. It stacks on 3 trains now so there would be no point running more anyway
March 13, 20169 yr comment_229589 Oh okay thanks for that, a couple of new voice announments been put in for 2016 see how long they last!
March 13, 20169 yr comment_229590 THEY'VE ACTUALLY PUT THE INFINITY PROJECT ON IT? MY DREAM HAS COME TRUE Could swear that's played when I've rode before.. Which would've been a year or 2 ago
March 14, 20169 yr comment_229594 Oh okay thanks for that, a couple of new voice announments been put in for 2016 see how long they last!Just in the station or queue and area as well? And what do they say?
March 14, 20169 yr comment_229595 Just in the station or queue and area as well? And what do they say? Station and outside queue, one is 'Welcome to X a journey of light and sound' and the other is a more lengthy safety related announcment.
March 14, 20169 yr comment_229600 Since reopening forwards it's only ever ran 4 - but now it will run 3 usually as the difference in throughput is tiny due to one always needing to stop.
March 14, 20169 yr comment_229613 Yet most times I've been on it, it's only been running two... Which then makes the queue ridiculously long!
March 14, 20169 yr comment_229642 Yep, would quite liked to have ridden this yesterday to see any changes. But several times we went past and was told it was a 55min wait. No thanks when Saw and Inferno are walk on..,
March 14, 20169 yr comment_229659 Do those records stuck to the X queue line wall look as bad as they do in the photos? I like the X themed bins outside though! Shame they still have the X-Files style X on the ride itself.
March 14, 20169 yr comment_229682 They are ok. but they look a bit of an after thought as they are only in one section of the queue line. If it was all along the whole queue then it would look quite cool.
March 14, 20169 yr comment_229689 Guru Josh Project - Infinity (2008) I think that's the one mate! That's it! Thank you so much, had it stuck in my head for so long!
March 14, 20169 yr comment_229691 Station announcements seemed to have been turned off by the end of the day which was a bit disappointing, it had some background noise to it adding a good theme to the otherwise rather nondescript station. For some reason the queue announcement played in the pyramid itself when I went on too! It doesn't stop on the block brakes like it used to on now way out when it ran 5 trains I think it still stops on the block brakes if the train in front is close enough to the previous one when there's 3 trains running, tends to stop on the very last block brake section from my experience, or in the bit just before the exit.
March 14, 20169 yr comment_229716 I like how it says X:/ This Way Out. Clever. References. Can't wait to ride it. Sent from my SM-G361F using Tapatalk
March 14, 20169 yr comment_229743 They still using that 2 people per row rule which I thinks H&S gone mad.

March 17, 20169 yr comment_229980 X was running surprisingly well today - don't know if it's just because it was the first ride in ages, but it seemed to be flying through the MCBRs and getting a nice pop of airtime (by X's standards) coming off them!
March 22, 20169 yr comment_230207 Does anyone know I X is still running on a two train service, ir is it now back up yo a three train service?
March 25, 20169 yr comment_230451 I don't know if anyone here would know, but back in July I noticed there was a crack in ceiling in the section that used to have the 'lift' effect, just before the loading platform (via the ride access pass entrance). It was pretty big and got worse between July and October. I emailed them about it and said they'd look into it over the closed season. Does anyone who also uses this entrance know if they've fixed it or not? Thanks

Does anyone who also uses this entrance know if they've fixed it or not? Thanks Don't know about that entrance but I'm not sure if it's anything to worry about. The ceiling above the 'lift' for the normal queue is just a plasterboard sheet, there has been a hole through it for a few seasons now and you can see right up to the roof of the shed. So if it's a nothing that's just there to cover the roof then I doubt anything has been done
April 21, 20169 yr comment_232910 Does anyone know whether X is still on reduced capacity or not?It seemed to be on 3 trains near the end of our day last time we went but can't remember when that was.Sent from my GT-I9305 using Tapatalk
April 22, 20169 yr comment_233007 Went on this the other day. "Take a journey into light and............silence?" Got deafened in the queueline but heard sod all in the ride itself! Partaking in geekery since 1985
