It’s probably not relevant or it’s already known. I saw one of the trains and a few sections of track on the back of a lorry heading south on the M6 last October. The train was damaged so must have been the dropped one. I had a few photos but I have no idea how to upload??

My deepest sympathies are with those that were in the accident. We all know that this should never happen and we all know on here just how rare this is. It does sound to me that AT were at fault more than the actual ride but I'm sure we'll know this for sure in a few months. I'd just like to...

Re: Alton Towers | The Smiler | Unknown Gerstlauer World's 1 I like the way the track comes up from very low to the straight section, although the straight pieces are on two different levels. They seem to be on the same line, just the last bit looks about 5 foot lower. Am I missing something...

Vortex is outstanding, a real classic and feels a bit out of control. Leviathan was not there when I visited.

I rode the one at Canada's Wonderland. It was foul.

Good lord, that thing looks lethal! I'd never put my kids on it! Did anyone notice the kid's left arm in the first picture is half the length of the right one??

Is it me, or are there no safety barriers??

Hi all, bit of a long story, but I have managed bag an air ticket to Canada. My first choice was Toronto, so I was thrilled when I discover that Canada’s Wonderland is there! My preference for flying is late May, but I can change this if need be. This is a bit of a once in a lifetime thing...

Ok, I am a Cameraman, so was wondering if I could be of any help. I voted Guide to Ride BTW

Hmm, thinking that we will not renew our families 3 passes at that money! There are so many BOGOF deals each year, I will just visit Thorpe once and perhaps Alton once. Every year the price goes up, sometimes more than once a year. And, as everyone says we get less and less for our money...

Who will be shooting them? I would be interested in helping out, or have they been shot already?
