March 15, 200916 yr comment_48196 I'm so glad I changed my mind about going today! Fingers crossed next weekend will be betterTell me about it! Thorpe seem to get an awful lot of power cuts for a theme park.
March 15, 200916 yr comment_48204 tpkabz, was it really testing? at what time?, really great if it was! What were queues like?it was testing at around 2pm I managed to get onto saw before it broke down. but while they were testing it one of the carts got stuck on the top.
March 15, 200916 yr comment_48235 Rumba rapids is open!!!Didn't it open in the afternoon yesterday? When I was on Nemesis Inferno I saw boats going round and I saw the staff making guests to form a queue outside the entrance.
March 15, 200916 yr comment_48239 I saw that queue too, the next time I walked round to it the queue had dissapeared and the water had been drained.
March 15, 200916 yr comment_48247 I saw that queue too, the next time I walked round to it the queue had dissapeared and the water had been drained.Ouch I actually wonder why Logger's Leap and Rumba Rapids are closed.
March 15, 200916 yr comment_48250 Ouch I actually wonder why Logger's Leap and Rumba Rapids are closed.Dont think there were ready it is not like Rumba Rapids to be down because it is very reliable ride so they must of been doing final checks on it. Dont think Loggers is ready either.
March 15, 200916 yr comment_48251 yesterday I saw them testing rumba rapids as sam said maybe final checks
March 15, 200916 yr comment_48253 I can only laugh at how as soon as the park opens, the Closed Ride topic (which has been dormant ever since the park shut it's doors for 2008), blooms 5+ pages within the first two days of official opening. Textbook Thorpe...
March 15, 200916 yr comment_48255 There's not much to say other than that is bad. It doesn't matter if it's Thorpe's opening weekend, that available list is pretty much the same as the Thrill Chill list. Bad.
March 15, 200916 yr comment_48257 Rumba is up and working woohoo. The earliest Stealth will be open is Wednesday. Saw is likely to be between Monday and Wednesday so next weekend I think all rides will be working with the exception of Slammer.
March 15, 200916 yr comment_48258 Rumba is up and working woohoo. The earliest Stealth will be open is Wednesday. Saw is likely to be between Monday and Wednesday so next weekend I think all rides will be working with the exception of Slammer.What's happened to Slammer? .

Saw is likely to be between Monday and Wednesday so next weekend I think all rides will be working with the exception of Slammer.It's good that Rumba is open. Hopefully by next weekend, all the issues will be resolved.
March 15, 200916 yr comment_48263 It's good that Rumba is open. Hopefully by next weekend, all the issues will be resolved.Hopefully. I think given a week to sort everything out, Thorpe Park will be back to their good old selves.
March 15, 200916 yr comment_48272 It has yet to finish its closed season maintenence.It had the last of its scaffolding taken off-site yesterday so it should be ready in the next couple of days, presuming the testing goes flawlessy.
March 15, 200916 yr comment_48276 on the thorpe park website it says that they are having a local power cut and its effecting the rides ...
March 15, 200916 yr comment_48281 Yeah Thorpe are having a power cut for Colossus, Rush and Quantum are all down at the moment
March 15, 200916 yr comment_48282 on the homepage under the saw advert it says latest newsIt doesn't say that anymore. It just says: "Welcome to Thorpe Park. We are now open for the Main Season".
March 15, 200916 yr comment_48283 Yeah Thorpe are having a power cut for Colossus, Rush and Quantum are all down at the momentSo that means that Stealth, Saw, Slammer, Logger's Leap, Colossus, Rush and Quantum were down today?It doesn't say that anymore. It just says: "Welcome to Thorpe Park. We are now open for the Main Season".That probably means that issue has been resolved.
March 15, 200916 yr comment_48286 So that means that Stealth, Saw, Slammer, Logger's Leap, Colossus, Rush and Quantum were down today?That probably means that issue has been resolved.It sounds like Stealth, Logger's Leap, SAW and Slammer were closed all day, whereas Colossus, Rush and Quantum were only closed for part of the day. Alas, the day is not yet out. Who knows what will happen next?
