March 11, 200718 yr comment_6825 It was the smoke effect machine which had come on unexpectedly and was pumping out a lot of smoke/haze. The reason the area was evacuated was because of this as the machine was previously switched off and not working.
March 11, 200718 yr comment_6827 If the smoke machine wanted to come on, I hope the fire and water tower will decide to come on aswell ;)Also on the way home (around 6-ish), I've could of sworn Slammer was testing...
March 11, 200718 yr comment_6829 I would be surprised, there was an awful lot more to do to slammer before it can start testing.
March 12, 200718 yr comment_6840 I was about to get on the ride as it was pulling into the station when it happened. There was a real panic but nobody worry. It was giving staff rides not lon gafter
March 12, 200718 yr comment_6843 I was on the ride front row, how cool is that <{POST_SNAPBACK}> And you didn't say hi . Lol don't worry I know you don't know me. Anway it happened at the back row and I was getting on the back row so there!
March 12, 200718 yr comment_6844 Meh as my train came into the station I was greated with loads of smoke, was quite freaky
March 12, 200718 yr comment_6854 Samurai pods are now back on, and the top of Slammer is back on aswell...good news I suppose.
March 12, 200718 yr comment_6859 As you can see in these pictures which were took on Sunday.Slammer with its top back onSamurai with PodsSamurai pods againWith thanks to Dann.
March 12, 200718 yr comment_6866 No. Trains are been stored inside a hut nearby Canada Creek's Toliets.
March 12, 200718 yr comment_6871 Actually some a scattered near the loo. But from what I've seen. IOW the Rocky Express is still under way...
March 19, 200718 yr comment_7152 Canada Creek Railway, Rumba Rapids, Slammer, Rush and Detonator are currently closed.
March 19, 200718 yr comment_7156 Rumba was running a very limited amount of boats on Saturday so I would imagine that its now having the rest of the boats added and tested before it will reopen.Rush and Slammer seemed to be getting special attention on Saturday as well so will hopefully open soon. Detonator I hope will be open for the TPM meet up on 24th, looks as if they only have to reconnect the cables and get its tests done but it may need more stuff done I'm not sure.
March 19, 200718 yr comment_7159 I know about Rumba Rapids, the queue was massive and I could spot a boat going past the rocks every minute unlike every 5 seconds . But now its currently closed.And yes on Saturday I saw people working on Rush. Saw nothing done to Slammer or Detonator though .And yes Holly, Rocky Express was open on Saturday.
March 19, 200718 yr comment_7163 Slammer had a cherry picker for a short while when we were walking past. You and the bloody Rocky Express Holly Slammers new restraints are still in their protective covering though.

March 19, 200718 yr comment_7175 They have to be to be honest, the restraints are speically designed for the Sky Swat type of flat ride.
March 19, 200718 yr comment_7179 Yes well the restraint are one of the reasons why I draw the line at it.
March 19, 200718 yr comment_7195 They aren't restraints; They have merely been sent back to S+S in America.
March 19, 200718 yr comment_7204 The restraints where sent back to s&s at the end of last season, I believe that the park have now received some new restraints for the ride. I have heard that Slammer should be re-opening on the weekend with all other rides re-opening during the week!
