Theres a clone on the European Fair Circuit, which Im sure has visited some fairs in the UK two or three times. I've seen photos of it. But yeah, still a crappy travelling model, as Mike said :P

Please, explain to me how your 'plans' are in the slightest bit feasible and sensible Martyn? You want a Rapids Ride, Space Shot Tower, Top Scan, Spinning Coaster, Euro Fighter, Ferris Wheel and a Gyro swing within a few years? No park in the world, ever would build such things in a short...

Out of them listed on the first post, I've only done the two, both the Spanish ones. Dragon Khan;s my number 1 coaster, and Stunt Fall is about 4th or 5th on my list.

Shockwave is a decent ride. Not great, but does what its meant to do well. Oh, it ran two trains last year, Marc. :)

Heard extremely good things about Turbine. Shame to see another Schwarzkopf go...

I mean seriously what the **** are they? They look very padded and comfy but also are about as visually attractive as an arse with riga-****ing-mortis. It's the new 'KumbaK' trains on Efteling's Vekoma Looper, btw.

Martyn, please get the message that small parks like Pleasurewood Hills are aimed mainly at families with a SMALL selection of thrill rides. You want a Euro Fighter, Gyro Swing, Top Scan, spinning coaster and a Drop Tower? Jesus.

There Hardly dead. Look how many have been built recently; SheiKra, Griffon, Dive Coaster, the one at happy valley. Is that 4 in 4 years?

I read this yesterday and when visiting my Grandfather today, he says he does indeed remember riding a figure of eight wooden coaster, inside the pavillion on the Pier. He visited WSM during summer pretty much every year in the 50's and 60's, and has added weight to this. I know you've...

Glad it's finally progressing. Theming looks fab too.

read threads and links posted, and you'll see. The F1 park had a super fast 'racing' launched coaster planned for starters.

I've now rode 6 SLC's and I honestly rate Kumali the best. Thats not saying much though, considering it is an SLC! The layout is boring, apart from the first drop which is like OMFG! Sensational first drop, and it was really smooth when I rode it on it's opening day. Not been to Fl...

Whirlwind's probably the worst coaster in Britain. If you have rode it, you'll see. I've visited Camelot about 10 times every year since it was installed, but only rode it once to get the credit. It's rough, tacky, temporary, rusty, just ****. Awful investment for Pleasurewood...

I highly doubt it. Recievers and Consultants from Theme Park Planning Agencies are due on site next week to investigate the park and see how much money they could gain by selling the site's internal parts (eg Rides).

Been posted before. Not sure if I'd like to ride one. Looks a bit...odd?

Finally going up! I love them supports. How many Gertslauer's are being built this year, by the way? Must be around 6 or 7?

Corkscrew is gone? Thanks for that info, didn't know that! ****

I'm sure I've read somewhere that Orochi was dismantled and put in storage about 2 months ago now, so this was always going to happen. Another park gone!

Yeah, Ben; there's apparently 10 gondola's more than their was old ones. So, while each car has a smaller capacity, there is indeed mroe of them. :) It should INCREASE capacity, if anything. :)
