Obscure UK Parks

They have used two coasters as "static adverts" that rarely opened.
Never seen the Rocket open either, though it looked quite pretty, likewise the old looper they put on the Marine Drive.
Looked alright to tempt the punters in, but, er, under maintenance...always.
Tried but failed to ride both.
"I'm sorry it will not be opening today", on repeat.

I hope they have more luck with free entry, which it should be as a seaside funfair.

Went and rode The Rocket in 2021, the one of the same model had derailed up in Scotland so thought best get up and ride it before they shut it. The old looper was just sat there unopened that day, but it was open when I last visited in 2022. Think it was removed after that season.

Free entry is best for that park for sure, just wish they had something that would make it worth the effort for me to go there again.
