As you may know, I'm a member of the Morris Minor Owners Club. During a recent hunt around the old pictures, a sealed vault was found and within, the legendary fallen branch itself some pictures were found from the Potteries Branch Annual Rally at Alton Towers in 1992. I'll put them up in 4 blocks.

Is this the Air car park location they are on?
 
Roughly yes, that is the car park near Air. You can see the Beast in the background of a couple of the photos.

Thought so. The area looked very different 22 years ago!
 
Sweet photo's Tom. Some really good ones there with (as you and others have mentioned) the rarely seen view from the back of Thunder Valley with the Beast, Thunder Looper and monorail all featured in some of them. Very nice to see :)

Edit - Would you mind if I stick a few up on my FB page later on? I will watermark them fully crediting you if so. Just let me know what you want me to label them as if you're happy with that. No worries if not though :)

Credit the Potteries Branch MMOC as well, I was only passing them on.

Just label them as MMOC Potteries Branch Rally 1992, Alton Towers. Then give a rough guesstimate of the area they are in :)

Cheers Tom, I'll do that ;)

I'll put them up tonight if I'm still awake :)
