    Ride Availability 2018

    B&Ms are very reliable but Oblivion seems to go down daily, and let’s not even begin to talk about the poor show that is Galactica. What a pathetic attempt Merlin are showing at running a theme park.

    2018: General Discussion

    The entire park is. Dark Forest in particular.

    2018: General Discussion

    I think the fact that there is around 7 people watching it and one of the crew members trying to get the clapping going says it all really. Terrible. I appreciate the effort but this is just not Alton Towers.

    Park Map

    Or people who want to collect but can’t visit the park due to other commitments. Personally, I don’t see anything wrong with selling things like park maps online. At the end of the day, if people are happy to buy them, I.e. if the demand is there, why not?

    The Alton Towers Music, Video and Other Multimedia Thread

    No one is forcing you to listen to it. None of the music has been released so this is all we have at the minute. Hopefully, Alton will follow Thorpe and release an IMAscore CD. Until then, it’s this or nothing and I’d rather have this.

    The Smiler - General Discussion

    Exactly. I won’t be taking a bag anymore meaning my pockets will be full. I refuse to pay for a locker that charges each time you open it. Either invest in free Orlando style lockers, or get ones similar to Blackpool where you only pay once (which I don’t mind doing)

    2018: General Discussion

    They really are shooting themselves in the foot here. More people will take items like phones onto the ride with them as they don’t trust the totally insecure baggage cages. This will cause more ride stoppages, which will cause more pathetic articles in the Daily Mail, thereby putting...

    Is this just a test?

    Single Rider Queues

    Has it changed back? I thought Maurer Sohne ordered the change? I last went in late September and it was operating as 2 so if it has changed then discard my posts :)

    Single Rider Queues

    No, it’s still 2 per vehicle in wet conditions.

    Single Rider Queues

    It’s not really that effective anymore though since the manufacturer changed the regs so that only 2 passengers can be loaded in wet conditions. Most groups are either 2 or 4 anyway so SRQ is only really useful for Spinball when it is operating normally.

    Alton Towers Resort: What Does The Future Hold?

    It’s a scary and upsetting time. I think we need to prepare for the worst as I can’t see the park surviving past 2020 if it stays on it’s current track.

    Major Operational Changes for 2018

    I just don’t understand why the Rapids are set to be closed throughout the entire Easter holidays?! It’s a peak time for families...

    Major Operational Changes for 2018

    I really do hope I wake up from this never ending nightmare of Merlin slowly pullin Alton Towers apart. This park means so much to me, I have so many memories there and it is such a shame to see it being decapitated. I hate to say it but I don’t think they will recover from these recent years...
