Thats fine great just glad others saw what I was seeing. Looks like the offical plans have been submitted and we were both correct.

Thats exatcly how I read it and what I was suggesting in my post above.

Reading the planning document it makes it sound like a substantial concrete structure will be installed that the ride will sit on. This structure will contain plant equipment and a tunnel to allow guests to move around forbidden valley. To me that sounds like they are building the floor of the...

To be honest to begin with I really wasn't sold on the veins they reminded me too much of a cheap ghost train but now seeing the track section in place I can see the veins really do take me back to the original Nemesis Logo. I’m sure the similarity isn’t a coincidence, for that reason alone it...

I agree , it all looks great but the shape of the Disko lends itself so well to a Viking longboat how did they miss that trick.

I would add Shockwave to the mix last time I rode it there was more headbanging than at a 24 hour heavy metal marathon, and the jolt when it hits the brakes is not at all fun for those who aren't expecting it.

Gulliver's have at least 1 ride in the Milton Keynes (jousting castle) that runs a dual mode both with different height restrictions, it just has 2 queue lines and basically runs like separate rides. They just operate it on alternate modes filling from the appropriate queue.

It looks the same style of ride as Dragon siege at Gullivers Milton Keynes (sorry not sure the manufacturer of this one). Dragon Seige

There can't be any block brakes in the tunnel because the lift chain doesn't begin at the bottom of the hill, the train needs the momentum gained in the tunnel to make it up the lift hill.

Just had another check through the planning documents on: http://publicaccess.staffsmoorlands.gov.uk/portal/servlets/ApplicationSearchServlet?PKID=104356 It looks like the track dives under the pre-show building after leaving the station into whats called the "UnderCroft". You can see an...

It's interesting to see the boomerang has been installed 180 degrees out compared to all the art work released a few months ago. That will push the station further back and allow the entrance to the que to be in a much better position. In the original plan the que entrance almost complete...

Re: Thorpe Park construction? Am I the only one thinking they could install something like the new simworx robocoaster G1 or even a G2? Can't post links but the simworx website under products has some pretty nice pics and videos of the system. The only thing going against the idea is the pit...

Re: Alton Towers | The Smiler | Unknown Gerstlauer World's 1 I think it looks like it'll be a solid addition to the Towers. Plenty of forces and head choppers all round. One thing to remember when watching that POV is its a helmet mounted camera so the jerkiness is not due to dodgy...
