Kerfuffle Posted May 23, 2014 Report Posted May 23, 2014 Rita is my favourite at towers. I take it you seem to enjoy broken legs, whiplash and the all-famous Post-Rita Headache! Quote
Project LC Posted May 23, 2014 Report Posted May 23, 2014 THORPE PARK Resort @THORPEPARK 2m We’ve had @StephenMulhern and some #BGT legends visiting today. Watch the show on Sunday to see what they got up to! http://ow.ly/I/5FxJI Someone is lying. We already had an argument about this a week ago. Quote
Cal Posted May 23, 2014 Report Posted May 23, 2014 Look who’s in the Resort today! Who remembers these guys from Britain’s Got Talent? Tune into Britain’s Got More Talent on Sunday to find out what they were up to. Swear they were recording for Britain' got more talent a couple of weeks ago? Quote
Worthy9992 Posted May 24, 2014 Report Posted May 24, 2014 We were told that it would be closed for BGT filming the other day when I last posted so I really don't know what happend but then again maby TP are saying today but I don't recall them shutting the ride for filming on the day they posted that Quote
StealthRider Posted May 25, 2014 Report Posted May 25, 2014 well, just seen it, and am pleased to say that they realised they disappointed so many people with stealth being closed for 3 hours Quote
Mitchada04 Posted May 25, 2014 Report Posted May 25, 2014 "All to pick a ball out of a hat!?!?!" They did at least give it a sense of humour and some advertising for Thorpe which never hurt anyone. Quote
Cal Posted May 25, 2014 Report Posted May 25, 2014 Today there was a Windows stall by the entrance of Stealth, and you can play games on multiple windows devices to win an ice cream, toppings and sauce! They said they are going to be there for 2 weeks! Quote
Ryan Posted May 25, 2014 Report Posted May 25, 2014 Yeah they were there yesterday when I went. It was so random and obviously Windows 8 was failing in their demo, but you can never turn down free ice cream, even if it means having to use Windows 8 for a few minutes. Cal 1 Quote
Cal Posted May 26, 2014 Report Posted May 26, 2014 Just watched the Britain's got more talent from yesterday on Itv player. https://www.itv.com/itvplayer/britain-s-got-more-talent/series-3/episode-7-audition-7 Quite funny how they took the mick that they had to close the ride etc.. Quote
Project LC Posted May 27, 2014 Report Posted May 27, 2014 Stealth was very efficient today, so efficient that the crew broke the through put record. MattyMoo, TPJames, pluk and 1 other 4 Quote
TPJames Posted May 28, 2014 Report Posted May 28, 2014 Stealth was very efficient today, so efficient that the crew broke the through put record.Hope they continue to keep up the good work, thumbs up to the team. Quote
planenut Posted May 29, 2014 Report Posted May 29, 2014 Stealth was very efficient today, so efficient that the crew broke the through put record. This is very encouraging because the crew then develop a greater relationship with the riders, and the whole atmosphere improves. Coaster 1 Quote
Project LC Posted June 2, 2014 Report Posted June 2, 2014 Anyone know if stealth is still on one train. It was on Sunday apparently because there was something wrong with train 2. Quote
James Posted June 2, 2014 Report Posted June 2, 2014 Anyone know if stealth is still on one train. It was on Sunday apparently because there was something wrong with train 2. What was the point in Stealth having 3 trains if they're running it 1 when there's a problem with one? Quote
Project LC Posted June 2, 2014 Report Posted June 2, 2014 What was the point in Stealth having 3 trains if they're running it 1 when there's a problem with one? They no longer have the 3rd train. Well they have the parts for the 3rd train but in no way is it usable its more scattered across the maintenance shed. Quote
Mitchada04 Posted June 2, 2014 Report Posted June 2, 2014 They do the annual strip down on the third during the season. So if there's a problem with the second train they can't simply stick the third out as it's in pieces (we saw this Saturday, it can't just be put together in one day). Depends what the problem with this train is. If they're not waiting on a part they'll be working on it but even this can take time. It takes them 6 weeks just to strip down and do maintenance on one side of a Swarm train. Quote
Project LC Posted June 2, 2014 Report Posted June 2, 2014 I guess stealth wasn't helped on Sunday by the fact the ride crew were useless and that they were putting up ride times as if it were on 2 trains. Ill just hope that it gets well soon. Quote
pluk Posted June 2, 2014 Report Posted June 2, 2014 What's the point in having three if they are doing the annual strip down on the third in open season? They're shut for five minute months, do it then! Unless it has gone the way of the vampire and train death canabalisation has begun? Sent from my GT-I8190N using Tapatalk Quote
Project LC Posted June 2, 2014 Report Posted June 2, 2014 Did stealth ever used to run all 3 trains at the same time or has the 3rd always been there as a back up. Although its not doing very well as a back up at the moment now is it. Quote
JoshC. Posted June 2, 2014 Report Posted June 2, 2014 I've been under the impression that they rotate the trains and do some maintenance on the 3rd train whilst it's not in use. It could be a case of the 2nd train simply died at the wrong time. Unfortunate. Quote
Ricky Posted June 2, 2014 Report Posted June 2, 2014 It will be on one train for the foreseeable future. Just a heads up, if you want to ride stealth head there first. James_C and EC! 2 Quote
Marc Posted June 2, 2014 Report Posted June 2, 2014 I've been under the impression that they rotate the trains and do some maintenance on the 3rd train whilst it's not in use. It could be a case of the 2nd train simply died at the wrong time. Unfortunate. I get the impression this is the case - the 3rd one is usually going together by the summer and ready to come onto the tracks to run where they will then take off another one to start their maintenance.

Cal Posted June 2, 2014 Report Posted June 2, 2014 It will be on one train for the foreseeable future. Just a heads up, if you want to ride stealth head there first. How do you know this? I'm sure they will try and get another train up and running as soon as possible seeing as it is one of the most popular rides on the park? Quote
