Considering how maintenance have clearly been treated poorly, I imagine they're short of staff and have no morale or wish to do OT

They have a closure page on their website:
www.chessington.com
It's not complete though, it doesn't mention Rattlesnake. Regarding the rides listed, I believe they completely replaced the foundations on Trawler Trouble (which seemingly turned into a bigger job than anticipated) and Scorpion is presumably still waiting for replacement parts.

New Explorer gate ticket building plan vs reality.

Oh Merlin.
Im no Merlin fan but based on the money they are spending on Chessington atm I would guess that’s temporary until they build the planned one.

I meant the image of what it should look like, there is something very Planet Coaster about the style.

The littleI believe it was always planned to be a portakabin themed up, it was installed last year blank awaiting its theming.
The fact it has now had this vinyl added recently does suggest they have scrapped the original theming concept.

Really shocking, they’re going to get a lot of complaints I’d imagine.

So they have no rollercoasters open at all?!
Their thrill line-up is reduced to
Blue Barnacle
Croc Drop
Monkey Swinger
Tiger Rock
This is also the first time I've seen a flipping chairswing with a 60 minute queue!

It’s always so hit and miss Chessington. I am regularly checking the app days before I go to make sure the rides are up. I re-scheduled a trip three times last year because of Vampire being down.
Their biggest year for ages and they’ve got off to the worst possible start.
Vampire on one train and now closed for past couple of days
Scorpion had fire and hasn’t surfaced since
Rattlesnake who even knows?
Tiger rock unreliable as always
Dragons Fury very unreliable and late to open this season
Seriously unacceptable.
