I suppose removing it stops some trains going round three quarters empty, so reducing overall wear.

Whilst a theme park can’t really be described as sustainable from an energy perspective - it must be costly and un-green to send half empty trains round as someone wants front row seats.
Worst case, just let people behind you go through do you’re that desperate for the front row.

Yep makes no sense at all to me that one. It's the best front row ride in the park as well

Nemesis VIP experience for £120 anyone?

It's not actually that expensive given that Gold FT is included (worth £75), I would've rather they dropped it but I guess they've done it to reduce demand.

John W must be running out of retirement spends to be doing public meet and greets. It's like the people who leave EastEnders forever until they reappear 10 years later.Nemesis VIP experience for £120 anyone?

Absolutely throwing a bone to the enthusiasts and vloggers and taking some of their sweet YouTube income back off them I think.

No problem with them doing things like this to bring in a bit of extra income, although it’s not for people like me.

It does say 'From £120' - so probably £120 for a dog, £160 for a child and £250 for an adult or something.
Typical Merlin fail putting something out live prematurely!

Yeah assuming it is a talk from the two Johns this seems an OK price. Overall it’s kinda similar to the 10th anniversary event twenty years ago.Nemesis VIP experience for £120 anyone?

£120 and they let me bring my dog? Now I'd be tempted! Wonder how she'd react to the giant eye.

After a few rides today I think the whole project is an improvement on its predecessor.
Area is much more themed and has way more “immersion”.
Just wish that rattle wasn’t there! That last turn into the station is brutal. Not sure that’s normal and don’t remember that part of the ride being rough on Nemesis 1.0
Next thing to sort is Galactica, really doesn’t match forbidden valley now.

Rumour has it, a few hours ago Towers staff were poised over the pool under the loop with a pair of scissors and several bags of red dye… then quickly packed them away as this story broke.

The Environment Agency says the "fluorescent dye" was used to trace the pathway of drains.

I am 99% sure that when Nemesis originally opened 30yrs ago tomorrow it did not have a front row queue - it was added as an afterthought. Only reason I can be sure is I worked for the Ride Manager who said it was his idea to add the front row queue.
Also on my first ride on Nemesis in about 1996 I can remember "getting lucky" in the station when the guests in front of us filled the loading bays, meaning we got first choice of where to sit on the next train (we took the front!)

I rode it in 1994 and always remember the front row queue being there. Perhaps it was added shortly after opening?
