Pleasurewood Hills

I really do think the 1st thing the new owners need to do is scrap the parking charge.

They can’t as it has been outsourced to another company; they’d either have to buy them out at great expense, or wait until the contract ends.

If they tidy up the park bring in some new rides and improve ops it could become more popular whats also beneficial with Pleasurewood Hills having new owners creates more competition for other UK Parks.

Really thinking outside the box there but it just might work!

A voucher for £5 off something in the park might do the trick? Sort of "we can't get rid of the charge but can refund it"

How has no one said they should buy Megafobia lol,

They should buy Megafobia
That is if Aspro doesn't ship it off to an Alligator park

It’s baffling that a park that size ever brought in a parking charge.

I’m amazed it ever got signed off, especially since Looping don’t have parking charges at a lot of their larger parks.

As keeps being said, due to the terrain at Oakwood, Megafobia will not be moving anywhere...it simply won't fit anywhere else without very expensive alteration.
Cheaper and easier to simply build a new coaster.

It was sadly the final straw for many locals and it has done them widespread damage that as yet has not yet been recovered, along with the McDonald's that opened literally at the park entrance gate

How many trains can Cannonball Express operate with if it was ran at max capacity

 

[Poisson]

It has offload, between stations, onload, lift, track and maybe 2 on the brake run? Run properly, you could op 4 or 5 maybe.

It's a very solid family coaster so if they can get a couple more trains that's a win in my book.

 

[Mattie boy]

It came with 5 i recall, only one actually barely works now

Well the new owners have said their interested in getting more trains for 5 would be the ideal number though 2 or 3 would be better

 

[Leigh]

There’s no point in buying and running 5 unless they’re running with Kirmes ops (which they won’t be). They’ll just be sat stacked all the time.

3 would be fine. 4 would be perfect.

 

[Hid]

Kirmes ops (which they won’t be)

They have also stated they want to improve ops. So maybe they can.

Also with having 5 always means there can be at least 4 on track

 

[Poisson]

The money isn't there to run Kirmes style ops. Olympia has 7 hosts and an op on tour, no parks do anything like that for a similar length train.

Maybe they can at some point

 

[DiogoJ42]

Yeah, but parks don't make two hundred quid per train dispatched.

 

[John]

Throwing a handful of extra trains on would be completely unnecessary for a park on the scale of PWH. Getting a 2nd train would be sufficient 95% of the time

I remember about 10 years and two owners ago the park claimed to be planning on putting a 2nd train on that thing. It's probably a much bigger job now than it was then. From what I've heard it struggles to even move the train from offload to onload at present, I'm not sure I'd trust the reliability of the block system
