    The Future of Skyride

    Anyone think that when it comes back the glass will be replaced. Because I remember it looking like it had been attacked by a wild animal last I was on it but that must have been back in 2017.

    Nemesis Reborn: General Discussion

    Got to love term time days for lack of queues but sometimes I notice you don't get all the full works like smoke effects on oblivion. I feel like there has to be some sort of middle ground when it comes to picking days when you get all of the effects but less queues then peak time.

    Nemesis Reborn: General Discussion

    I might be worth something for the right collector in the future. Although I remain sceptical about the sw8 branded pieces of wood that where available when wicker man was still being built as in theory they where just off cuts that never made it onto the ride.

    Nemesis Reborn: General Discussion

    I always wonder how valuable these kind of items will be in the future. I know in theory you shouldn't just buy something based on what you think its future value will be but £100 for a bolt on some wood feels like a big investment for what it is. Especially when you consider the amount of bolts...

    Rides you miss/wish you could have ridden?

    I always feel that I missed out on a lot of these old rides as I only first went to Alton in 2013. I would love to experience doom and son as I love spooky themed things but also to experience the original haunted house. It's something I noticed after watching all of those British dark ride...

    This looks good and I'm happy to hear of new investments going on. For most people all they are worried about is am I going to have a good time they aren't necessarily going to be comparing things to how they where back in the day. So long as they feel like they got there moneys worth they will...

    Having EV charges on the park makes sense to me. Although I thought that there was already a destination charger on site I remember looking at a map and seeing one listed at Alton Towers did that never get actually implemented until now or am I just mis remembering?

    The Alton Towers Music, Video and Other Multimedia Thread

    Is there any Alton towers "slow TV" out there? I would love to see someone exploring the park for a few hours preferably on a quiet sunny day just something I could stick on in the background.

    The curse of inconsistent branding. No idea why it needed to be changed in the first place.

    ah i didn't realise it was a heritage line. In that case the best thing for the park would be more busses maybe even doing there own as they will now be open latter then the normal busses run.

    I imagine there would be opposition to the line opening again due to the loss of the foot/cycle path to the public. But we are seeing small rural stations opening again such as Okehampton in Devon which has been a success so its possible.

    A £10 for parking is outrageous. It will be interesting to see if the buses start running latter with the new longer opening times in summer.

    Haunted House - Behind The Scenes Documentary

    Well this was well worth the wait and I feel its a lot better then the first version that was put out. I never got to ride the haunted house as my first trip to the tower was well after it had closed. But after watching this I cant help but feel a sense of loss I’m thankful that so much work has...
