It appears that ops manager role is for an internal promotion, due to it being advertised as a 12 month secondment.

The park were smashing the operations yesterday. Alton Towers is absolutely on the up from my previous visit. They have clearly gone into this weekend, which so far, has been VERY busy, well prepared. Credit where credit is due, seriously! I left yesterday a VERY satisfied paying customer and...

If there is a similar topic, I apologise / please merge. After visiting yesterday, where quite frankly, the park was on top form 100%. I thought a special mention should be given to the park audio and volumes on rides and areas. All areas and queue lines had the volume of the music sounding...

I went yesterday with my son. Had a great day, operations were decent throughout the day overall and it was fairly busy. Managed the following; Thirteen x1 Rita x1 Hex x1 Oblivion x1 Skyride x5 TCAAM x 5 Nemesis x1 Galactica x1 Congo RR x2 Wickerman x1 Spinball Whizzer SRQ x 1 Nemesis...

I am going to counter this article in the best way I can, with the best intent. The number of elephants in the room in that article could populate a continent. Let’s start with the basics and some huge ironies… To paraphrase, the article quite proudly announces that a billion-dollar AI cannot...

Building a replica chained oak would be a bad idea. We literally have the real chained out a few miles away. Most guests do not see it, granted, but it is there and real. Having a fake chained oak would undermine the legend I think.

There is a link, just not in the backstory. Thirteen is designed to look like the Towers.

Mandys gotta fund Hot Ice somehow...

Whats the 1st most dangerous?

Not many, but you rarely get independent family parks that have the money to build a huge number of thrill coasters either. I guess there is no right or wrong. Some thrill parks will be more profitable in some locations where as some family parks more so in others.

Do they? If that is the case how can thrill parks build large mult imillion pound rollercoasters and still make money? It's a genuine question. A thrill park must make some serious cash, to be able to afford huge investments.

I must be living under a rock. Thank you.. 🙂

I just realised that Looping Group have bought the company that operates Waterworld in Stoke on Trent. They kept that quiet. I can see this being incorporated into a season pass soon. Like with Drayton Manor, I can see the company structure changing. Which will not make Looping Group liable to...

Great photos yeah, they have been online for a loooong time. Nice for people to see them who haven't seen them however, as they are great pics.

There were strong rumours suggesting this was cancelled. It is worth remembering that at this point, they are just that, rumours. The evidence in support of this actually happening, is in the form of the planning application, but the delay in any construction is slightly concerning.

Would a drop tower not be too tall for the area? Given it's location right at the park entrance and the parks tree height limit? I would struggle to see a drop tower with any meaningful height being allowed in almost any area of the park, let alone Adventure Land. This is without expensive...

Looks awesome. This new on ride photo feature looks so good. I am missing the game somewhat at the moment. I have managed to look at some of the parks made on the workshop however. Even at this early stage, some of the parks look incredible. One of the greatest things about this game in my...

This photo over the r̶u̶n̶d̶o̶w̶n̶ beautiful gardens show why they cannot operate on warm days, everyone appears to be struggling in the heat.

Forgetting the vinyl for a moment, it comes to something when the AI drawn gondolas have better vents and air cooling than the real thing, don't you think?!

Oh yeah there is absolutely no chance of it happening. It would however be nice. They should apply some heat reflecting tint though, relatively cheap, but also makes the gondolas more bearable on days when it is operating near the limit.
