D4n Posted September 2, 2009 Report Share Posted September 2, 2009 The entrance music that was playing last year, is it still playing this year?Yes. The ITHOFTMK jingle used in the advert is also played. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James6 Posted September 5, 2009 Report Share Posted September 5, 2009 In the hall of the mountain king , or something like that, basically the Alton Towers music/theme tune. The one you hear on the adverts and in Towers Street. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lordcutter6 Posted September 18, 2009 Report Share Posted September 18, 2009 First time going on 2nd October, from experience how busy is it likely to be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'G' Posted September 20, 2009 Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 Yes, but what your doing is going into every "general" topic asking if there's a new, big roller coaster being built. Have a look around and find out for yourself, this amazing forum has everything to answer your questions.You are allowed to discuss things in general, SW6 ( the codename of the new coaster) is not general conversation as there is a seperate topic for it.I beleive that the word 'general' is too vaque for you to pin-point, thus, I beleive you to be incorrect.

Dan9 Posted September 20, 2009 Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 I beleive that the word 'general' is too vaque for you to pin-point, thus, I beleive you to be incorrect.You're picking at technicalities when you understand exactly what we all mean, and annoying everyone because of it. You could have just posted your thoughts in the SW6 Topic, instead of randomly posting it in here and starting this confusion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James6 Posted September 20, 2009 Report Share Posted September 20, 2009 Adrenalin Week has been confirmed again for this year, where the park opening has been extended by a week with reduced opening hours and slightly reduced ride line up.I for one can't wait as it's usually a safe bet to go as it's likely to be quiet, I'm hoping to go on the 7th, the final day of the season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am sorry if I upset anyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James6 Posted February 13, 2010 Report Share Posted February 13, 2010 Be sure to have a look at http://live.towersnerd.com/Has some live updates from the park.It seems Sonic Spinball is nothing more than a re-paint as most expected Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TP Daniel Posted February 13, 2010 Report Share Posted February 13, 2010 I actually quite like the repaint to Sonic Spinball. I think it looks a lot more fresh and clean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Posted February 13, 2010 Report Share Posted February 13, 2010 Spinball looks terrible! Yay for another tussauds type sponsorship Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
themeparkmad Posted February 13, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2010 Sonic Spinball looks worse in my opinion.Those signs up make it seem like a fairground attraction to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyT Posted February 14, 2010 Report Share Posted February 14, 2010 I fear some people were expecting too much. It gives the ride a bit of a freshen up, gives Towers something to promote for Feb Half Term, and it's very likely it'll be moving within the next few years. I seems though Towers did have a few issues yesterday so I think little things will be worked out over the week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TP Daniel Posted March 18, 2010 Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 Just a quick question, I am trying to visit Alton Towers more often and have been looking into using the trains. The problem is that if I were to go on a day trip there, the train costs would be quite expensive (£50+) at the times when I would be looking to use them. I know that it is a long way away but are there any ways in which I could save money on this? Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark9 Posted March 19, 2010 Report Share Posted March 19, 2010 I dunno where you are coming from so what I've gone for is a general thing from London Euston to Uttoxeter. Also as a 13 year old you should be to have Child fare which would knock the price down slightly.Anywho the best way to get cheaper tickets to Alton is to pre-book in advance on the Virgin website. For instance I've got a window open up which is £24.60 return from Euston-Uttoxeter at the weekend on the 3rd April.It's best to check on there really and remember you also have to catch the bus to the park from just outside the station.
