Southport? Traumatizer 2? 😆

Not sure about the THORPE PARK stuck on the front of it, seems a bit tacky, but otherwise, yeah, it's a train 🤷‍♂️

Shocked I've never posted in this thread, given I have lived within 30 minutes of the park almost my entire life. I think I must have posted in a similar thread sometime in the past. Anyway.... Nemesis Rita Wicker Man Thirteen Smiler Galactica Oblivion Runaway Mine Train Octonauts Spinball...

You don't really need to book in my experience, though I've never been in August so it may be busier then. I first went on a Scarefest weekend though and was done in less than an hour. Also went on a sunny day in July once when the park was rammed, but there was no wait at the restaurant.

I've booked for the 24th and 25th too, probably won't go tbh but may as well join the hype train for now :D

Brean being taken over by Disney then? If not, some lawyers may be visiting soon 😬

Queue time is 35 minutes right now despite 5 of the big coasters being closed 🤦‍♂️ Anyone know if it's back to full capacity?

Just in the nick of time for me. I'll be there on the 6th May! :D

Hyperion is another well known example of this I think? But as Nicky says, Nemesis is by no means rough. The rattle is just annoying.

Had my first visit for the season yesterday and managed to get 3 rides. As already mentioned, Nemmy didn't open until around 1pm and the park was a lot busier than you'd expect for a Tuesday early season, so the queue began at 45 mins before dropping down to 20ish on average from 2pm onwards...

Ah, this will open the can of worms! :D I won't count it as a new cred unless the ride feels significantly different to the original.

Just because the earliest date it could open is the 13th, it doesn't mean it will open then ;) I hope it does though because I have a trip booked for early May.

I would suggest most British enthusiasts have ridden both since most of us will have been to Florida on holiday. There are definitely some "rank the B&M Inverts" type threads already on here, but for me these are the best two, with Nemesis being the winner.

It was redundant 29 years ago 😂

Good to have all those embarrassing pig-related photos in one place, thanks @Howie ;) It was a great way to kick off the coaster season though!

Exactly. It's this park's equivalent of Flight of the Hippogriff/Woody Woodpecker so when you look at it in that context it's not that bad, and must be better than those equivalents in the other parks.

Joris has way more airtime than WM, the layout is miles better and the racing element does add a lot. I agree with @Howie completely on those ratings of the two rides. It was just as good on my second visit to Dollywood as the first time. Loved it, and anyone moaning that it's rough is...
