Drayton Manor Park

They weren’t filling it on the press event I was told. No idea why.

Probably some issue with the row as they can use a key switch on the offload side to disable the restraint release, and that was used to shut the row all day on saturday.

Does anyone happen to know why The Wave’s restraints have to be checked multiple times and why the staff only half secure you the first time they push them down? It was causing the ride the have an excruciatingly slow throughput today!

Because Drayton Manor Park and Zoo.

Their social media seems to be treating today more like The Wave opening, lots of posts and influencers…

The restraint has a hydraulic and mechanical ratchet locking system to meet class 5 restraint requirements, These have to be independently verified, which must include at least one clicks movement on the ratchet restraint, hence the unusual loading. All ART train conversions will do this as far as I am aware.

Back row is still empty

I imagine TPWW will address this in their vlog if nobody else has.

Shawn’s got some stamina, he’s been to parks in Spain, Germany, Poland, and now back here without too many days off over the past two weeks and that’s a fair bit of travelling.

As for Drayton I’m still curious as to when they’ll start to tease their new coaster, I guess that maybe once Hyperia has launched and had its place in the spotlight they might start to ramp up the anticipation for their Lift & Launch coaster. Seems a long time we’ve been waiting for even just the name.

They really have worked hard this past week and can see Testing starting by the end of the month.
