Blackpool Pleasure Beach: Icon - 2018 Mack Double Launch Coaster

It's not like they had too much choice in station placement, there shouldn't be enough room to fit a double launch coaster there never mind be picky about station orientation!
 
My point is not about orientation. It’s about design. Yes, put the station there if needs be, but have consideration of this placement when you design the station form.

Let’s see how it turns out, but there’s not much they can do to it which will alleviate its overbearing impact on the adjacent pathway.
 
People said the same thing about Valhalla when that started to go up, blocking the view of the Grand National.

The core building is a standard design but that doesn't mean the theming has to be. Take Nickelodeon Streak for example, it has a pretty basic core building but a really funky exo-building around it.

Ohh look at these sexy things that just showed up...
 

I really should of held back from reading posts from the general public on the BBC news post. "What a boring looking ride, barely goes upside down" "£15 million and only goes 50 mph" "Well that was disinteresting. 1 barrel role and a half loop/half roll in the entire thing? Guess my personal record of 13 straight years without any desire to go to Blackpool is going to be undisrupted"
It makes me a little angry... just a little.....
