Does anyone know why the park is operating Nemmy on 1 train on off peak days now? Seems a bit strange when they never used to do this- Ethan

Have you ever seen a ride as unreliable as Rita this season. You telling me it’s had 2 lengthy periods of downtime and now a few weeks after reopening its shut again. Time for Merlin to get rid- Ethan

I know it wasn’t part of the argument but I do think it is a consideration in the conversation you’ve been having. Yes like you’ve pointed out a 40 min queue is a 40 min queue, however I think letting people know how many trains something is in may actually make people re consider their choices...- Ethan

However this does make a big difference when it comes to guest experience in my opinion. A 60 min queue on 3 trains on Wicker will feel like less as the queue will be consistently moving at good speed. However, on 2 trains the queue will be a slower mover and be a more frustrating experience for...- Ethan

A ride not being able to operate in any rain in the UK is like going to Egypt and not bothering with sun cream. Both equally stupid- Ethan

Controversial Alton Towers Opinions
This is the problem with Towers. Unique rides that were special when they opened but I don’t think many of them have aged well. Galactica Oblivion and Th13teen are the main culprits for this. Worlds first rides that were good when they opened but have been surpassed to such an extent that they...- Ethan

Never is at Cedar point. They might be one of the worst parks operation wise I’ve ever seen. Makes Merlin look class- Ethan

Should front row seats be a premium add on
Not sure what makes you think fast track is a disgrace it is used at all major parks across the entire globe. Heck if I was rich enough I’d buy it all the time- Ethan

Beautiful sunny weather at Towers, quite low queues but yet the park is open til 6pm. I get they expect busier crowds at weekends but having lower queues on a day where you have 2 hours longer just makes Towers look like they click a random generator for opening hours.- Ethan

Ye the point is Towers should know about it. From what I’ve seen most schools are back after the bank holiday on the 21st. Yes Stoke nearby are off that week 21st-25th but pretty much all other areas are back so why have that week a 6pm close and this week 4 when there’s just as many schools off now- Ethan

Well it’s a great start to the off peak weekdays. Do Towers actually do any research around half term times around the country and also school trip numbers- Ethan

Seen a good video from Pleasure beach experience talking about where are Uk parks going wrong and what do they need to do to improve. He mentioned the lack of investment in a major new ride at Towers since Wicker man and I’m inclined to agree. Reborn and Toxicator to the public are essentially...- Ethan
