If it does turn out to be a travelling kid's ride, they can be built overnight.
It'll still be delayed.
Soggy path or something.
EDIT:
We regret to inform you that due to builders (name redacted) mixing up sinking sand, with sharp sand, our new fantabolosatasicbabulous "new" kids coaster, FI5T33N has been delayed.
We have temporarily closed The Smiler to investigate if it slowly disappearing into the ground is due to a similar building oversight.

Don't worry, the concrete will sink into the ground due to a mixture mess-up or something.![]()
Yes, like I say, they used sinking sand instead of sharp sand in the cement.

Pretty sure those are cartridges for sealant guns which in their most basic form are these things:

Why they need so many of them, I have no clue. I usually associate them with bathroom sealant, not heavy engineering.

The video on the Merlin pass homepage http://www.merlinannualpass.co.uk/ does show a mine train type coaster at about 18 seconds. It definitely looks mine trainy but doesn't really look like AT, could be Chessington though?
There are actually two separate coasters, from 18-20 seconds. The second could be rattlesnake but the first isn't at a UK Merlin park. Are we going to see a ride like this at Alton, or is this just Merlin advertising rides not at their parks opening them up to even more false advertising claims !!!
