The Smiler

Problem is with testing it during opening hours is that they would be descended upon, so they MIGHT tested it after the park closed (something I heard in the hotel last night)...

There were trains on the track with dummies on engineers wandering around it for a little bit before going away... I think the obvious one is the extended queue not being out is an indicator more than anything...

Will see in a few hours... Though my friends have ended up getting 3 days at Towers for £28 as a result... Silver linings and all that...

Does this thing still need dummies to test in the mornings in the middle of summer?? :lol:

Fingers crossed it's open tomorrow. I'm heading up there and wasn't aware this was all going on. Booked a ticket for my friend via MAP's friends and family thing on thursday which is non-transferable and was no mention of any trouble with the Smiler. I hate to be 'that guy' but I will complain if it's closed tomorrow. It's a long way to travel and for booking non-transferable tickets with no info on their website/over the phone, it's not fair, especially as they're still advertising it. Should I really need to check a forum every time I plan to visit to see if there are any ongoing problems?

Yes, the terms and conditions or whatever state that ride availability cannot be guaranteed on the day (and it's understandable with unforeseen breakdowns etc) but with ongoing problems, it's not difficult to mention it over the phone or put up a clear message on the site!
