Jack29 Posted March 13, 2016 Report Share Posted March 13, 2016 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? Matt A 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cal Posted March 13, 2016 Report Share Posted March 13, 2016 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack29 Posted March 13, 2016 Report Share Posted March 13, 2016 Oh okay thanks for that, a couple of new voice announments been put in for 2016 see how long they last! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
holtjammy16 Posted March 13, 2016 Report Share Posted March 13, 2016 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack29 Posted March 14, 2016 Report Share Posted March 14, 2016 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.

Marc Posted March 14, 2016 Report Share Posted March 14, 2016 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldFarmerDean Posted March 14, 2016 Report Share Posted March 14, 2016 Yet most times I've been on it, it's only been running two... Which then makes the queue ridiculously long! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragon2000 Posted March 14, 2016 Report Share Posted March 14, 2016 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.., Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattyMoo Posted March 14, 2016 Report Share Posted March 14, 2016 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stretchy Posted March 14, 2016 Report Share Posted March 14, 2016 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt A Posted March 14, 2016 Report Share Posted March 14, 2016 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! Jack29 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt A Posted March 14, 2016 Report Share Posted March 14, 2016 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.

yeah Posted March 14, 2016 Report Share Posted March 14, 2016 I like how it says X:/ This Way Out. Clever. References. Can't wait to ride it. Sent from my SM-G361F using Tapatalk dragon2000, OldFarmerDean and Matt A 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoshC. Posted March 17, 2016 Report Share Posted March 17, 2016 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! dragon2000 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt10 Posted March 22, 2016 Report Share Posted March 22, 2016 Does anyone know I X is still running on a two train service, ir is it now back up yo a three train service? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie98 Posted March 25, 2016 Report Share Posted March 25, 2016 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

huzzellio Posted April 22, 2016 Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 Went on this the other day. "Take a journey into light and............silence?"
