    Thorpe Park | Hyperia | Mack Hyper Coaster | 2024

    Booked my tickets for the 24th and 25th! I'm absolutely buzzing! For my first opening day, I'd say this is a pretty good one! 🙌🙌🙌

    Thorpe Park | Hyperia | Mack Hyper Coaster | 2024

    I came across this on @thrilling_rides' Instagram story. Looks like there's a Mack train (that looks very similar to the Icon/Helix design) on one of Thorpe Park's new for '24 mugs. Could this be a small window into Hyperia's train design?

    Colossus Partial Retrack (Thorpe Park)

    I think they said Thorpe's Sparkle Project is a 3 year thing. Given how it currently looks I'd be surprised if we didn't see a bit of a glow up in the next few years. If they painted it blue and gold and added theming to make it look like the original that'd be cracking. That's assuming they're...

    Alton Towers | Nemesis Reborn | B&M Retrack | 2024

    https://www.instagram.com/stories/gingernbrown/3325709348561673733?utm_source=ig_story_item_share&igsh=ajhlenY1Ynd0b2x5 This is very interesting, looks like water running through the (presumably) new plumbing? 🤔

    Alton Towers | Nemesis Reborn | B&M Retrack | 2024

    That's a really cool concept. When it goes though the helix just before zero g roll backwards it sort of reminded me of the death roll thing (not Gwazi's) that crocodiles do to kill their prey.

    Thorpe Park | Hyperia | Mack Hyper Coaster | 2024

    That's great to hear about the imminent arrival of the trains and the suggested dispatch sequence. As you can see below Hyperia has also been confirmed to have a front row queue (as well as all the other info. I know not all of it is relevant to Hyperia but I thought you guys would find it...

    Colossus Partial Retrack (Thorpe Park)

    Looks like Colossus's entrance will be getting a little more colour in addition to the yellow (plus all the other info). I'm quite pleased to hear this, the yellow was quite overpowering. I'm hoping for maybe some blue or something like the old entrance with the wood aesthetic returning to some...

    Dollywood announce Lightning Rod's launch to be replaced with chain lift

    Surely they could have just replaced the old launch with a more reliable launch system? I heard somewhere that the issue was the wooden structure and track of the launch moved more than a steel equivalent would have (I can't remember where I heard that from and don't know how true it is, someone...

    Thorpe Park | Hyperia | Mack Hyper Coaster | 2024

    Someone recently asked a similar question on the Passholder Group, Thorpe said that testing would begin about 3 weeks after the layout was complete.

    Knott’s Berry Farm | MonteZOOMa: The Forbidden Fortress | Schwarzkopf Launch Refurb | 2025?

    I think Peet meant Psyké Underground at Walibi Belgium. (Apologies if not) Speaking of Psyké Underground, that ride is a perfect example of a Schwartzkopf Shuttle Loop refurbishment done right. It's such a shame that Knott's didn't also go with Gerstlauer and do something similar. Who knows...

    Wow, just wow. What a fantastic view! Entering the park this year is going to have so much more of an impact on first time and revisiting guests alike. I know it'll definitely make an impact on me. Source: https://www.attractionsource.com/future-developments/project-exodus/

    Well, that's certainly a surprise! I wonder what's going on behind the scenes to salvage this migraine of a project.

    Not to jump the gun, but could this be gold trains confirmed?

    Thorpe Park | Hyperia | Mack Hyper Coaster | 2024

    I assumed it would be 1.4. You've got Saw next door, a Gerstlauer Euro-Fighter with a 1.4 restriction. Given that Speed: No Limits at Oakwood has a 1.25 (I think) restriction, doesn't that show that Thorpe have bumped Saw's restriction up a bit? Why wouldn't they do the same for Hyperia which is...
