I do wonder if eventually, Alton will only allow Ride Times to be accessed from within the park (via a geofence or only via the free wifi). I suspect it is doing them more reputational harm than good at this point.
Haha! Quite...But what are goons meant to do instead? Work?
Haha! Quite...
Seriously though, the park layout is such that if a ride goes down for an hour the % of visitors who are inconvenienced by it is small, the % of visitors who are aware of it is even smaller. (If you're riding Nemesis & Galactica that have a combined queue time of an hour, for instance, your awareness of the fact that Oblivion has had a 45 min snaffu is very limited).
In this community especially, it feels like that conversation surrounding the park's operations is led more by people not at the park, than those who are. The same was true during the Opening Hours debate in the Pleasure Beach thread.
Just sayin'.
Nemesis has been unavailable for quite a while now!Nothing is presently unavailable! Well done Towers! Hopefully this means that the rough stretch at the beginning of the year is done, and that now they can only move onwards and upwards from here!
Oh...Nemesis has been unavailable for quite a while now!
Nice little point to add.I do wonder if eventually, Alton will only allow Ride Times to be accessed from within the park (via a geofence or only via the free wifi). I suspect it is doing them more reputational harm than good at this point.
I’m guessing there’s been people who have tried. I think the WM staff deserve a pat on the back this evening, The last train of the day was about to be loaded when a medical emergency unfolded on the exit side of the station. The staff chose to clear the bays and give us all PRP so they could sort the person out probably.It's not like you could just stick it back in with a glue gun!

Looking at the forecast, between 12 and 4 on Tuesday winds could be up to 40 mph!I'm going to AT on Tuesday, The met office has 30 mph gust forecast. I'd expect the Smiler and Oblvion to be periously close to not being able to operate. What about the other coasters?
