Ricky Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 I used to love it in it's opening year when they were on a sensor, so when the train was dispatched, it used to spray more.Still does I believe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Posted March 20, 2010 Report Share Posted March 20, 2010 ^Yep it does, thats the curtain at the front of the tunnel which has been fixed for this year. Oh and those flaming lanterns that have been broken for years What ones do you mean? The lights in the station? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cjw Posted March 20, 2010 Report Share Posted March 20, 2010 I can't remember the last time I went through the tunnel and couldn't actually see anything but that certainly was the case on Thursday.Excellent stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garry Williams Posted March 20, 2010 Report Share Posted March 20, 2010 I think I have only ridden Inferno once and experienced any mist at all. But it certainly wasn't as much mist as in that picture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stealth888 Posted March 20, 2010 Report Share Posted March 20, 2010 To be honest the only time I recall getting physically wet by the mist was at fright nights '09.It was awesome and I cant wait until I go on it again, its just such an awesome ride anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamY Posted March 20, 2010 Report Share Posted March 20, 2010 I really can't wait to go on tomorrow! Should be really great with the mist literally pouring out like that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weeby-vuit Posted March 22, 2010 Report Share Posted March 22, 2010 Nemesis was very good on Saturday, the lights and mist in the tunnel really added to the effect and they had the Volcano working which was really good to see again. It will be good on a hot day, it can be used to cold yourself down with.the biggest annoying thing about the ride on Saturday was all the rusty water on the ride, as it went up the lift hill you got covered with rusty water. They did put out a message saying sorry about it and that they would provide poncho's to cover up with.Overall the ride was really good.

Marc Posted March 22, 2010 Report Share Posted March 22, 2010 rusty water? :SIts something the B&M Inverts have at the start of every year in wet conditions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyT Posted March 22, 2010 Report Share Posted March 22, 2010 For anyone that was there when I was around Inferno, will know how much I love the geysers under the loop. So pleased it's working this year.However people will also know how stressed I get about those station lanterns. Three are now broken, one of them hasn't been working for over two seasons now. It stresses me out I'm hoping they get the dispatch theme fixed soon, even the staff are starting to chew their own arms off with the repetitive loading theme, which would be broken by the drama of the dispatch theme.

Seriously, how hard can it be!And I can never understand how they get away with just using the effects when they feel like it. At any other park you just expect the theming to work from the start of the day to the end. You shouldn't be thinking to yourself 'I hope the mist is working today' - it's part of the ride experience! Of course it should be working! Grrr... Sorry, rant over.

themeparkmad Posted March 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 On the good Nemesis Inferno music that was played last season - Even though that looped instead of dispatch theme, I didn't mind it as it did not come across as repetitive. (Also I really liked it! ) For anyone that was there when I was around Inferno, will know how much I love the geysers under the loop. So pleased it's working this year.How is your head Mikey?

Benin Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 Its something the B&M Inverts have at the start of every year in wet conditions.Not just at the start... It happens throughout the year... Inferno can handle it better than Nemesis though since it's newer... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coaster_monkey Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 Dunno who thought it was an amazing idea to remove the inferno queueline music from the station and replaced with the dreaded crap from 07.Least the queueline music in the station was gorgeous to listen to, as I'm sure the staff would think if they had to choose between the two I was thinking this too. The station music is quite cool and still fits (...well) but I pefere the old station music - a VERY rare gem in Thorpe Park and they still manage to ruin it. Thanks Much appreciated.

SAW_gameover Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 I went again yesterday and although the mist looks orgasmic; the mist at the end of the tunnel was broken. However I must praise the fact they finally have the entrance to the tunnel working. I love it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thorpeparkjunkie Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 IMO the current station music is poor compared to last years however its far from awful but hopefully we will have it back soon...Does anyone have the current station music? Could not find it anywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However I must praise the fact they finally have the entrance to the tunnel working. I love it The pipe that has the mist only goes so far down the tunnel its in the centre running from one end to another the pipe stops far fom the end of the tunnel and at the entrance we have the 'curtain' mist combined on a good day go all the way through the tunnel its different everyday depending on the wether (wind etc) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My mistake. Just assumed it as theres normally tonnes of mist flowing out the back and covering the exit path Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThrillSeekerMatt Posted March 27, 2010 Report Share Posted March 27, 2010 I pefer the old station music - a VERY rare gem in Thorpe Park and they still manage to ruin it. Thanks Much appreciated.Looks like they have now replaced that 2007 station music that has been playing this year with the normal queue theme, as it was last year. The bird sound effects are still twittering away at the entrance though which is far better imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Posted March 29, 2010 Report Share Posted March 29, 2010 Indeed, the Inferno theme is now playing in the station again.. although the cannons dont sound to healthy at the moment! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
