    Ride Availability/Operations 2022-24

    Longest queue right now is for guest services, since it’s the only thing open🤣 Very very poor that they haven’t sorted the operational issues that plagued last year.

    Nemesis Reborn: General Discussion

    Currently on one train and only loading the first four rows of that 😬

    Thirteen: General Discussion

    Surprisingly large bump for AT’s most popular coaster, but are these trims before the lift new? Wonder if it’s to reduce wear on the tyres to solve the rain issues?

    [2024] Europa-Park General Discussion

    Took me a minute, but I think it’s the straight, more ‘human’ teeth. And the Bart Simpson hairdo. Slipping too far into uncanny valley.

    Fuji-Q Highland: General Discussion

    Unsurprising but disappointing news: Do-Dodonpa will not reopen: https://www.fujiq.jp/en/news/dododonpa_news.html Shame, was certainly on my bucket list.

    [2024] Nemesis Reborn: Construction and Speculation

    Well, I was looking back at the Smiler construction the other day, and the track was completed just 38 days before opening so it’s hard to see how they would miss it at this point.

    [2024] Nemesis Reborn: Construction and Speculation

    Better be ready for opening day or Wardley forbid people heading to Galactica will glimpse an unfinished masterpiece 🙄 Seriously though, I don’t think there is that much left to do - at least with the ride itself. It’s testing, the queue line is getting paved. I think the scaffolding around the...

    [2024] Voltron Nevera | Mack Stryker Coaster

    A rides capacity is nether inherently high nor is it inherently low, it is precisely what the designer means it to be.

    It’s just glare - you can see in the BBC footage there’s nothing there

    Your most memorable journeys to and/or from the parks

    I’ve asked around, but no luck. Fortunately got a rescue mission arranged! To rub salt in the wound though, it was only yesterday I was telling a colleague that I would never have laser eye surgery as I’ve never had any inconveniences with wearing glasses 🙃

    Your most memorable journeys to and/or from the parks

    Not happened yet, but I got off Galactica earlier to find that someone has absconded with my glasses. Can’t see a thing without them, so if they haven’t found their way to guest services by park close then I’m not going to be able to drive back 😡

    Some work taking place on Oblivion’s holding brake. No cars on the track though.

    2023: General Discussion

    I was there until just after 3 and didn’t see any rides go down for weather. Forecast was for about 35mph in the morning increasing to 40 in the evening

    2023: General Discussion

    To add, Smiler is the most wind sensitive with a limit of around 32 mph. But as Craig said, it comes down to what is measured at the ride on the day. I remember going on a couple of days last year where gusts were forecast to be over 30 mph, worst that happened was an occasional stoppage on the...

    [2024] Nemesis Reborn: Construction and Speculation

    Nemesis now sports some of those new-fangled magnetic brakes. Looks like they’d also reinstalled one of the old friction brakes further down as well, although it was hard to tell from Galactica without my glasses

    2023: General Discussion

    Not sure what’s going off in Dark Forest today, but Rita’s main queue has been closed all day with all guests directed to the fastrack queue. Additionally 13 has been closed all day with no signs of any of the trains EDIT: got my answer as soon as I posted - they’re repairing the fence around...
