All we need is M&D's to get taking over by some company who's competent and then there would be much rejoicing across the British Isles!
Techically five new coasters if you count Legoland as two, plus the replacement Nemesis, then there is Drayton and Thorpe.
Looks a bit short tbh
Judging from the footers this is my rough prediction of the layout. I'm guessing from recent track photos that the ride has a dark ride section as there are powered coaster track sections spotted. The footers highlighted in red look like a switch track, which suggests that a portion of the layout will be repeated twice. And not labelled in this image is probably some sort of launch from the station building after the preshow.
I agree. I’ve seen vloggers (Mr Sanbrooke) commenting that the layout will be pretty big but looking at that photo it seems as if it will be quite a small in length, even if it does feature a switch track.
Think Drayton has a shared pass with West Midlands Safari Park and Pleasurewood Hills, as they're all owned by the Looping Group. Paulton's is just on its own.
I was thinking the same, it is the UK after all so....
The problem Drayton got is space but you got to remember this is replacing the Big wheel/test track, Apocalypse, Pandemonium and the former fish and chip shop.
And this is why they don't get ridiculous queues like Merlin.
The platinum pass for Drayton includes Safari park only. Unless they have changed this, we are only allowed to go to Drayton and safari park under our current platinum pass.
They were thinking of offering 20% off Pleasure wood hills tickets if you owned a platinum pass.
I can imagine that would be an attractive offer for some however for me because I live directly in between both DMR and Wmsp , 20 percent would not be incentive enough for me to travel to pleasure wood hills as it would be a 3 and a half hour car journey. Thankyou for letting me know though , I tend to only skim and miss a lot haha
