    Interesting BBC video report on theme parks

    I have a bad feeling in letting robots and technology taking over a theme park. Well on a scale like this.

    Thorpe Park |"The Swarm"| B&M Wing Coaster

    Re: The Swarm - B&M 'Wing-Rider', Thorpe Park 2012 Would most likely be the church, to get all the electronics done. The other teams would continue with the theming.

    Funny Things People Have Said At/About Theme Parks

    That reminds me the time I was queueing for stealth, and two boys wanted to join me with my friends, since they were bored and one of them said that stealth was the fastest launch coaster in the world. :fp2:

    Re: The Swarm - B&M 'Wing-Rider', Thorpe Park 2012 Yes. At the beginning of the in-line twist there will be a partially destroyed tower, which will be a head and foot chopper. Also the base will house part of the queue line.

    Re: The Swarm - B&M 'Wing-Rider', Thorpe Park 2012 Inclined loop finished. It also appears the base of the tower is being made. Also looks like parts of the plane are already on site. :--D Update from theme UK. http://www.themeuk.net/LC12_Thorpe_ParkPG2.html

    Thorpe Park |"The Swarm"| B&M Wing Coaster

    Re: The Swarm - B&M 'Wing-Rider', Thorpe Park 2012 Woah. Things are now going fast. But one thing that surprised me the most is the mentioning of more track arriving. Surely all the track must've been there in the first place. Anyway, doesn't matter, can't wait to see the theming go up.

    Re: The Swarm - B&M 'Wing-Rider', Thorpe Park 2012 Patience. There should be one possibly today, since a person said they were going to thorpe yestreday or today. But it mostly depends what time they'll come back, if they have gone today.

    Thorpe Park |"The Swarm"| B&M Wing Coaster

    Re: The Swarm - B&M 'Wing-Rider', Thorpe Park 2012 From what I see from the plans, they should be doing the theming to a high extent. LIke with the fencing for the queue line, the burned tree near the ride entrance, themed bridge, and a whole bunch of theming things done to the church, with the...

    Re: The Swarm - B&M 'Wing-Rider', Thorpe Park 2012 ^Try out sunken gardens, that's a great place to get pics of the site. If you don't know how to get to sunken gardens, the entrance is beside stealth's queue line. Possibly stealth's platform, but you would have to take a quick pic, or else the...

    Thorpe Park |"The Swarm"| B&M Wing Coaster

    Re: The Swarm - B&M 'Wing-Rider', Thorpe Park 2012 I don't give a monkeys about trims, the only thing that matters is that the whole ride completes its circuit, and that's that. The only thing a trim is, is a hissy thing that shuts and opens, but nothing that would change the ride dramatically...

    Thorpe Park |"The Swarm"| B&M Wing Coaster

    Re: The Swarm - B&M 'Wing-Rider', Thorpe Park 2012 Also don't forget that some sections of the layout have been made, to let the ride effects be put in early, like with the water jets. I pressume tommorrow we should see the track section going up to the in-line twist go up, so that water jets...
