Drayton Manor Park

[Matt N]

I timed it at 575pph on 2 trains last September, for what it’s worth. It was comfortably stacking every time.

You've changed your tune since Wednesday.

I been took now that Drayton on the right track again they plan on adding new rides every 2 years with park upgrades in between.

@Themeparksandy1981, I want them to do something with this building just as much as anyone else, do you have a single piece of objective evidence, not circumstantial, to support the fact work could be getting done. I dont think any objective evidence exists, does it?

No I got no concrete evidence of anything going on inside the building but been an Annual pass holder since 2017 ’I speak to a lot of staff. When I asked even last year many staff said to me the maintenance building had been cleared but the ride had not been touched since 2019/2020 when the staff helped to remove the ride. Then lift hills and thrills confirmed to me that some of the boats had gone off side to be refreshed. All staff have now changed there tone to now there is now work going on inside the building but they can’t say what and they don’t want to risk there jobs. Even the maintenance staff have told me they powered up the system and it works and all the 3 lift hill motors work and it’s driving the chain but there’s still no water in the ride or boats back on site.
No one has confirmed it will be pirate themed but the looping group has a habit of bringing SBNO rides back and refurbing rides that should have closed years ago.
Even Shawn who has covered all 3 big construction projects at the park has said that to me and I’m sure to other fans that yes there is something going on in the building but his got to wait to Victoria Lynn gives him the go ahead but was told to keep a eye on the channel around late Summer.
