I showed most of my family who all were a little underwhelmed and wondered why I was so excited (purely as it's a wooden coaster at Alton at last!) Icon will be have the bigger wow factor grabbing the GP's attention, however Wicker Man is going to be the one advertised further, in every...

They probably were, but a leaked photograph has caught them off guard on a weekend. Hence the rushed statement.

In the photo track is still visible above the sheds. Would find it highly bizarre if it closed in what would be its 60th year of operation. Am hoping it's having an extensive rebuild to comply with new safety recommendations. Be very sad if it was removed! Sent from my SM-G950F using Tapatalk

Floorless Wooden Roller Coaster?

I see the grey is blending in nicely with the Blackpool weather! That turn after the immelman will be quite something!

It appears this one is in Malaysia now! https://rcdb.com/14360.htm There's hope left for Kanonen.

Pretty sure I saw this as an intro video to a death metal band years ago....

^ Believe it's done by an electro-magnet? Swear saw Millennium Force have something like that to cope with the high speed lifts?

Just seen this off a friend becoming 'interested', it seems the launch party for the park has been put on Facebook to launch 3rd January 2020.... But not much activity on it since February.

Is there a Nigel Farage dark ride? The irony!

I've heard it is purely having teething problems to being adapted with magnetic brakes etc. Just requires a hefty TLC and testing process, think someone mentioned it in the Icon topic?

This one; https://rcdb.com/6453.htm

After watching the teasers and now looking at the concept art, who cares how it'll ride, the stats etc It'll look amazing, those who have been remember how immersive the queue for the Alpen Blitz was, so much detail will go into this! Wonder if there will be anything in the station building as...

If it's called Labyrinth that would be amazing, but alas probably not, not quite the mature Merlin cheese.....

What is the main reason of this closure? Is it the park not identified pests in the structure or just not replaced worn out sections of the support/track over the years? As I've read the topic and seen few things put forward, unless I did not see it?

These are like the riddles in Batman Forever.... Tommy Lee Jones will turn up soon chewing the scenery...

I've managed to complete up to the Coral Group, had some leave recently and killed many a day completing a scenario a day! The only one I've left out so far is Amity Airfield, as I'm not the best at paid entrance parks, especially one with 3,000 guests needed! I've found that the bread winners...

As much as this won't be a world beater I am still looking forward to seeing how this develops, still can't really believe a new wooden roller coaster is being built in the UK! It's something that has been heavily rumoured for well over ten years! Hopefully it will be like most GCI's and the...

Seconded, don't think I've ever held onto my restraint so tightly on a family coaster as I did on that ride! That indoor section was ace.

The North Wales theme park Greenwood Forest has been purchased by the Continuum Group; http://www.yorkpress.co.uk/business/news/15446326.Continuing_expansion_with_new_attraction Hopefully they should be able to carry on what makes the park unique! Did hear of the purchase about 2 weeks ago!
