    Accident at Alton Towers

    Flume and Rapids open at 11am... Rita is probably buggered... Terry is severely buggered...
  2. Nemesis Inferno

    Accident at Alton Towers

    The track stuff is cos Gerst are weird and set the footers after putting the track in place... Therefore it always looks forced into place rather than pretty much every other company... It's not of course an unsafe version of putting rides together mind, must be more cost effective/easier since...

    Accident at Alton Towers

    Staff shouldn't have phones (apart from management), and you need to do it through the proper channels, otherwise you might end up with several people phoning up for the same thing... Can't blame the park for following their emergency procedure...

    Accident at Alton Towers

    Not really, because they state that they have to judge the incident first before contacting the services so: - Control get phone call - Control dispatch staff to the area to gather information - After reports, they'll call 999 10 minutes to do all that is probably about average based off their...

    Accident at Alton Towers

    I believe Varney has motioned towards that they want to check all the coasters to see if it's an issue solely with Smiler or could be potentially repeated on Nemesis/Air/etc... Oblivion is a potential hazard with that brake run as an example... Bearing in mind some of the recent over-reactions...

    Accident at Alton Towers

    I think they're just being sensible and going along the route of proving to the public that they've checked the entirity of the park to prove that it is safe... Give them credit, the way they've dealt with this in the aftermath has been good...

    Accident at Alton Towers

    Someone posted a pic of the CCTV coverage on Smiler: Photo by jackandylan123 - Dan Cotton It does cover the Knot (CAM 9) area, but of course whether they had noticed prior to dispatching the loaded train is another matter... Operators do have enough to focus on without keeping an insanely...

    Dunno about Karacho, but Saw is closed... Whether that's because it's related to this is unknown...

    Accident at Alton Towers

    Hey look, people on the Daily Mail website are over-reacting to something, isn't that a thing? Bearing in mind that this is the image they posted, and their readership tend to be insanely idiotic at the best of times:
  10. Nemesis Inferno

    Accident at Alton Towers

    It could be a mixture of both, but the ride op should be able to safely assume that the ride's system is always correct... Ride system should've automagically stopped the train on the lift hill, but it didn't...

    Accident at Alton Towers

    From what I can establish: - Ride has broken down - Trains are cycled empty to test, operator/manager/engineer agree to reopen - Train valleys - Train behind is dispatched at this time, unfortunately by the time the valley has been noticed they are unable to prevent the train from continuing...

    Southport after Blackpool

    5 creds currently, although Coaster Count's current Happy Caterpillar listed cred is incorrect and was a normal Wacky Worm... Spiteful place, and it's very depressing to visit since I'd not been since the initial closure...

    "Now Showing"

    Hollywood appealing to the Asian market is literally having scenes in one of their countries, often for random reasons... Iron Man 3 and Transformers being the main examples... Then there's Wolverine.......

    Efteling | Baron 1898 | B&M Dive Coaster

    Where would a lapbar go on a Floorless coaster? Why is this even a complaint given the relative quality of the B&M OTSRs in the first place?
