July 11, 201510 yr comment_212842 I hope they relocate the dragon ride (basically Rocky Express but much better and it can go backwards). That ride was my childhood! Yep. Always ride that when I go there. The laterals are insane
July 11, 201510 yr comment_212853 I always thought when looking at the concept art "where is that going because that surely can't fit on the old dinosaur site" so this makes a lot more sense! That is a big site and it's a big development, good on Paultons! Now all we need is them to remove the go karts and put a haunted house/dark ride there and the park is complete basically.

July 12, 201510 yr comment_212940 I think those photo updates made me even more excited about this project which is probably the best addition to a non merlin uk park since I can remember. Why can't we see water fall & rockwork structures more frequently in our parks?
July 13, 201510 yr comment_212945 Great update, love how they present these things to; simple enough for kids but interesting enough for adults. Now all we need is them to remove the go karts and put a haunted house/dark ride there and the park is complete basically. I think the log flume should be next, either get a proper one or theme the travelling style one they have to disguise and enhance it.
July 13, 201510 yr comment_212971 Why can't we see water fall & rockwork structures more frequently in our parks? Uh.. Matt we are, Paultons is one of 'our' parks. I do feel like Paultons is our saving grace in the UK. It seems to be the only park where anything could happen and with any installation you can tell they care.
July 13, 201510 yr comment_212972 That layout is interesting - the turn out of the station looks like it could give a nice bit of force for a junior coaster! Be interesting to compare it to the Ben 10 layout. I'm really excited for the park - this investment is an obvious statement of intent for where they want to take the place. Paultons had always been a park on my 'to do' list, but more a 'I'll get it done when I get it done' type of park. This investment has shot it up there to a park already in my 2016 plans - and I hope that it gives the general public a similar feeling when the area opens up.
July 28, 201510 yr comment_213572 Construction update: https://paultonspark.co.uk/lost-kingdom/2015/07/3114/delivery-on-track We have track people!
July 28, 201510 yr comment_213573 Very exciting!! With 2 coasters, that's a lot of track to get on site. Will we see vertical construction soon?
July 28, 201510 yr comment_213579 The more this project progresses, the more exciting I'm becoming. Paultons are really stepping forward the most of UK parks right now and could well put them on the map (if they're no there already).
July 29, 201510 yr comment_213581 They are on the map already in the wider circle since they added Peppa Pig Land... Hence why they are able to push forward and built this addition...
August 20, 201510 yr comment_215498 Is there any news on this? I've tried to find some recent updates and there isn't much about. Along with Thorpe this seems to be the biggest uk developments for 2016 but is quite quiet at the moment from an update point of view.
August 21, 201510 yr comment_215533 I other news on this, I've won tickets to the opening event! Woo-hoo! Win your own here
August 21, 201510 yr comment_215537 Lucky you. I've given up with it. After about 150 games the highest I have managed is about 300,000. No where near the daily high scores.
August 21, 201510 yr comment_215564 Exciting!! Hopefully will see more pics now there is something interesting to look at. No luck for me either with the game!
August 21, 201510 yr comment_215584 I got through with about 1.5 million, which I think is actually quite low for a winning score. Found it easier to get high scores on the mobile app than the online version for some reason. Good Luck!
August 21, 201510 yr comment_215589 How can you?! I got 5600, I am a weakling. What a good idea though!
August 25, 201510 yr comment_215905 Paulton's upcoming new area coming along nicely. The UK has some new exciting developments next year for once. Some mighty fine theming building up around here, this could well beat WC16's even.
August 25, 201510 yr comment_215907 It's not difficult to beat the bland nasty colour red of some of the warehouse for WC16 though is it aha
August 25, 201510 yr comment_215908 Looks great already! Here is the link to the blog that goes with the photos. https://paultonspark.co.uk/lost-kingdom/2015/08/3890/lost-kingdom-site-taking-shape-august-2015
August 25, 201510 yr comment_215911 That already looks amazing for Paultons. If they can produce theming like that, why are a bigger company producing bland green/red warehouses?
August 25, 201510 yr comment_215914 Jesus Christ, how or why would anyone want to compare a dark ride to an entire new area? They are completely different projects with completely different aims. Not taking anything away from this as I'm sure it'll be fab, but to try and compare this to WC16 is, wrote frankly, ludicrous.
