    2025: General Discussion

    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

    2025: General Discussion

    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...

    Alton Towers Trip Planning Questions and Discussion

    I wouldn’t usually recommend this but if you’re going early I’d head straight to Smiler. Then head straight over to Wicker man and hit that up while the queue isn’t too bad. At that point you’ve got the 2 most popular rides done early. Get Galactica done after this as it’ll be on 1 station so...

    Ye Rita was on 1 and Galactica on 2. Didn't help that X sector was struggling due to winds but overall queues were ok. Wicker ops are much better on 3 now and it’s making a difference with the queue

    The Smiler: time to turn the music off

    Well I judge how good theme park music is by how satisfying it is to listen to. The drop base parts on Smiler in the queue are phenomenal gives you goosebumps

    The Smiler: time to turn the music off

    Absolutely not. Granted the laughing part is a bit irritating but the parts with the base is the best music in the Uk imo. It’s catchy, sounds so good in the queue and has a great vibe to it. The music makes the ride it wouldn’t be the same without it

    2025: Toxicator - General Discussion

    I’m not joking guys when I say it’s my favourite ride now at Towers. I love hangtime and that thing had it to another level. What a powerhouse of a ride an absolute winner for the park

    Ouch the queue will be long for that later then. What’s happening with Galactica Nemmy are they both on 2 trains. Wicker was on 2 last weekend has the 3rd train been added now

    [2025] Toxicator: New Forbidden Valley Suspended Top Spin

    They should’ve put a single queue on a high capacity coaster like Nemesis where the queue will move at a good pace not a low capacity flat ride where a single queue will barely move

    All just comes down to group numbers doesn’t it. For 19 people sat in a row all you need is 4 groups of 4 and 1 group of 3, you wouldn’t even need any 2s in that scenario

    [2025] Toxicator: New Forbidden Valley Suspended Top Spin

    This is exactly what I mean. Let’s say theres 3 seats left to be filled in the row, realistically they should be getting a group of 3 from the main queue not a group of 2 and a single rider

    [2025] Toxicator: New Forbidden Valley Suspended Top Spin

    Don’t get how single riders will actually work on Toxicator. Imagine only 2 single riders per cycle and 100 people in the queue. That’s 50 cycles and it’ll be about 4 mins per dispatch so 200 mins😭 it’ll be longer than the main queue

    I was thinking this too. I would’ve rather they put it on Nemmy than Galactica. I mean Galactica has 2 stations and the single queue will only be for 1 station so there will still be empty seats

    Beautiful weather on park today. Rita running like a dream today. Very underrated in my opinion. 4 trains on Smiler and the baggage hold open brilliant ops on there

    Anyone on park today by any chance? Just curious what things are looking like on park in terms of ops for the coasters
