I doubt even they are that bothered, AT should have just revealed shots of the entrance sign and train or something!

I've been thinking, what do people think the queue system will be like? Could it be like the Smilers' (the main queue, and a combined Fastrack, Disabled and Single Rider queue which then splits into 3 separate queues), or different?

I hope they have a separate rap queue, but In expecting a smiler style queue.

So like a queue just for Kayne West, Eminem etc?

In answer to the question above a bit, I am enjoying getting on the hype train. Something post Christmas to look forward to.

I say that as a rap user myself it can be difficult at times with such a merged queue.

That sort of queue is fine, Smiler's is probably the worst possible example of one though and desperately needed someone to scream at the designers about it...

I'm sure they will say it's part of the theme, meant to disorientate guests.

Pretty much everything about The Smiler is poorly designed to be fair.

The marmaliser isn't. And be careful a certain super frequent smiler rider might hear you.

looking at the photo, it looks like there is a main queue plus two others:

 

[Coaster Phil]

anyone else noticed the three white stripes on the left shoulder?

 

[Rojo]

Hopefully the lawyers of Adidas haven't!

Yeah it was pointed out previously and is expected flames/smoke effects. They also pointed out some gas tanks (out of shot in this picture).

Main q. Fastrack. Disabled

 

[monkeyboy]

Main q. Fastrack. Disabled

What about us lgbtqia community??? We have rights too

 

[imanautie]

Main q. Fastrack. Disabled

I just hope it's like that up to the station, smilers issue is that main, FT and RAP are merged.

Somone over on Coastercrazy.com said this:

The one on the left that curves around and meets the preshow building at the bottom is the Fastrack queue. The right hand one is the main queue, and the middle one that leads into the middle of the site is a vehicle access road, that may yet be public access for ride viewing.

Hmm.
I'm sure we'll find out soon enough!

I’ve heard somebody say it will have an anti roll back system similar to Everest at Disney (it uses magnets to keep the teeth on the train up while the train is moving to reduce noise) can anyone confirm or deny it?

Bit curious about the stairs on the edge of the ride area next to the building. Are these just access stairs for maintenance or will we able to go down around the base of the Wickerman?

sod the three white shapes, which i assume are pipes for fire effect, there are stairs!!! you can get inside this thing! could make for interesting behind the scenes tours!

Edit: also do i see water behind it?
