8? Is that due to changes since Drayton? I didn't ride it last season but it used to be 5 including break cover. Yes Battle Galleons is 2 and breaks are covered along with the Bay.
There were at least four staff on the platform last season, then one or two in the op cabin, one looking out around the exit bridge and sometimes one on entrance.
The only thing Merlin care about is getting you to buy their annual passes. What awful things you say about them online after that mean absolutely nothing to them. How you use your pass means nothing. They've got your money, that's what they're concerned about.
The only way to counter something like this is to hit them where the profits are. Don't renew. Don't, as hard as it is, visit.
I don't buy the whole do not visit. It won't make any difference. If guest numbers are poor they cut, if guest numbers are good they cut - this has been proven over the last couple of years. Me either going or not going to Alton Towers will make no difference.
And anyway, if we all decide to just not go at all we might as well shut down TowersStreet!
