It's probably just a rumour, surely? Though if it wasn't, ArieForce One would be a good purchase second hand. I'm not sure what else the park has, I'll check RCDB.

It seems yesterday's rail crash was adjacent to the Universal site. Terrible stuff, totally unrelated to the park of course but not a nice piece of history. It's pretty much right on the Wixams Station approach.

Why? We knew Merlin had been campaigning for tax relief on the UK theme park industry, particularly after the government gave its backing to Universal. Why would they claim this and then not do it? For a CEO to outright lie on a public announcement would be career suicide. I swear, sometimes...

The theming looks fine on this. The station building looks sizeable, there's a bridge over the splashdown (essential!), there seems to be some large element that looks like a sinking ship at the bottom of the first drop and the splashdown is in water. No doubt Paulton's will fill the grassy...

Expensive to run, and I assume expensive to insure after the Drayton death.

Rumba hasn't run wild in years though, whilst not as bad as Drayton's which got nerfed to the point of becoming a gentle boat ride, it has been a long time since it actually ran like it used to.

Am I missing something here or is it not simply the first coat?

£6m!! A bargain by today's prices as well.

People are now complaining about the colour of the corkscrew over the entrance, as if returning it to its original colour and refreshing the entrance is somehow a bad thing?

Apologies if this has been asked before but do we know of any other Eurofighters with this newer track? I'm curious about the ride quality compared to older installations.

People are kicking off about this as if it's a surprise that Disney are building something family friendly in the Magic Kingdom of all places.

I just don't, want to see another member of staff at guest services being shouted at and abused because they (the guest) failed to book RAP in advance. I've seen this more than once. The real irony is that once they were claiming this was giving their child anxiety. The child was probably...
