I wear a glasses strap to theme parks and I have always been checked if I'm wearing a strap on Rita and this year on 13 as well. On Galactica I asked the ride host and they told me to put them in the baggage cupboard. The only other rides that I've been checked on are: Infusion and almost...

There is a second train for Nick Streak in the station, however I've never seen it on the track. One of the rumours I've heard for the reason why it doesn't run 2 anymore is because of the manual brake system and the number of blocks. Big Dipper however does run 2 on busy days and is one of...

I actually found this a lot harder than I first thought, but here goes! 1. The Smiler For me, it is very close between Nemesis and The Smiler (and sometimes they do swap places). I really like the length of the ride and the nice air time hills. I also enjoy the whole theme and style of the...

Hi, I've been lurking on here for a while - so I thought I'd say hello :) I'm Chris and I am from Manchester. My local park is actually Blackpool Pleasure Beach (where my favourite ride is Wild Mouse) but I also like other parks :) I used to only be able to visit Towers once a year, however I...

Have you seen the final shot on PB's TV advert? Both PMBO and Big Dipper have some very interesting dispatch speeds :)
