    Best Park Throughputs & Availability

    Whats the reason for this do you think. I have heard that a lot with their operations. Is their customer service good as well?

    Best Park Throughputs & Availability

    I'm currently doing a project about ride availability and throughputs and I thought I'd reach out to see what the general consensus is with which parks deliver the best results and what procedures and systems that are in place work the best. But also what areas cause bad throughputs and...

    Alton Towers | Nemesis Reborn | B&M Retrack | 2024

    I wouldn't have minded as much if that wasn't the X-Sector colour pallet. It's abit annoying to see Merlin once again go "edgy = black". This also feels like a rehash of The Swarm, where all the theming elements are vehicles. At least there are tentacles on the rocks! Are they new?

    Alton Towers New Flat Ride?

    Ripsaw Reborn lol I do welcome this, but I really hope Alton takes some notes from Talocan, it's so popular on social media, and with the right effects will be filmed alot by onlookers. I was joking about a Ripsaw Reborn, but that kind of approach could work pretty well here. Would love a big...

    Selkie - B&M Floorless - DOWNLOAD NOW

    I've been majorly stuck in a rut recently with design, trying to follow the real life coaster trends of big dueling mack coasters, multi launches, RMCs, B&M family/surf coasters. But it all lead me to hit a wall and loose interest. I realised I needed to just take a step back and find...

    Alton Towers | Nemesis Reborn | B&M Retrack | 2024

    By reinforcing the Nemesis brand is actually makes LESS sense to remove it from Nemesis Inferno. Although a logo revamp so that they are still aligned would be very welcome.

    Alton Towers | Nemesis Reborn | B&M Retrack | 2024

    If they want to lean into that they shoulda done metal fencing, I dunno, this just feels like fencing you put behind the scenes, not in the queue. Anyway, we have spikes! (coutersy of TowersStreet) Looks like they run along the legs, which is pretty cool actually. a Choice I approve of...

    Alton Towers | Nemesis Reborn | B&M Retrack | 2024

    Yeah I thought that... but the fence on the other side of that queue doesn't go into a ride area and its still a 6ft prison fence. I've seen the same from aerial shots (that I can't seem to find). Non of the old wooden fencing is there anymore , which is understandable coz it was old, but I...

    Alton Towers | Nemesis Reborn | B&M Retrack | 2024

    Using old vehicles is a bit of a pet peeve of mine with Merlin theming, they have one for almost every attraction. Nemesis already has the bus and the Sub-Terra tank thing. I know they get ripped for the shipping containers but the vehicles are worse imo. I am holding out for Nemesis (Reborn)...

    WTF Merlin?

    That looks horrible though. And I think "locking" the type to the background symbol causes a lot of issues when you want a flexible identity. My favourite park logos are mainly just type with a splash of personality (Toverland, Liseberg, Efteling, Phantasialand etc etc) and this is no different...

    WTF Merlin?

    It's definitely NOT a downgrade. I'm actually wondering if anyone has actually seen the old Thorpe Park logo... it's genuinely awful and looked incredibly dated years ago, plus the type face was hideous. I wonder how they got away with it for so long. That said though, this logo does look a...
