I had a guy on the phone the other day who's job has been ended due to this, so I'm guessing the outcome for the park isn't looking too bright...

^ Still closed. Except the small indoor section.
In other news, not surprisingly, the inspector who gave the cred the all clear on the 10th of June has been suspended / banned from working.

The park has reopened. Tsunami remains closed (Runaway Train was close too). I still don't have the creds. The end.

Don't suppose many tears will be shed in the enthusiast community.

It looks as if this one has been carefully taken down, rather than ripped down, so it'll end up bought for somewhere else. Considering how little publicity the incident attracted, I'd guess it wouldn't be too difficult to shift it outside the country somewhere.

Looks like both tornado and tsunami are up for sale. I can't imagine they are that expensive either.

On the bright side the WildWind owned by German showman Agtsch is also for sale

I had a nasty feeling this was going to spell curtains for the park.
For me, Tsunami was a total non-event, the only bonus being that the seats were so heavily padded that the roughness of the ride was almost unnoticeable.
No idea why, but I rather liked Tornado - one of those things that was so wrong it was almost right, so I may have to make the trek for another ride, and to grab the new mine train before the place gets spited.

It was actually really, really smooth. Weirdly.

If any coaster should be scrapped I think it should be this one. Looks terrible anyway!
