    New Coaster at Pleasurewood Hills?

    I think that the park is probably spending wisely tbf. There are two types of parks, ones with a load of permanent rides, that age, usually have big initial impact, but then the value reduces over time. Then there are the more seaside type parks that rely on swapping things out frequently. If...

    Paultons Park | Serpents Curse | Mack Water Coaster | 2027

    What I'd add mind is that some of the more recently added 'family rides' added across the UK are actually some of the most fun (and least painful) - spinning racer, storm chaser, and gold rush are all rides I enjoyed more than some of the big new ones. The likes of Hyperia and Nemesis Reborn...

    Lightwater Valley - Future?

    Just looking at the stats, and the wheel is about 10ft taller than the previous one. Having seen what Paultons have done with valguard, detail is all, and while it's not a new rollercoaster, giving that area some identity is a really decent start. Sent from my Pixel 8 Pro using Tapatalk

    Your Least Common Opinion?

    Paultons are a European park operating in the UK. Most other parks in the uk ape American parks. I think what Paultons has done has offered a window into another, sustainable way to do things. Ride for ride, Alton is better, but experience? Paultons every time. The MAP is possibly the...

    Gerstlauer for Pleasureland Southport?

    They couldn't afford Treguard's wages. Sent from my Pixel 8 Pro using Tapatalk

    There were little cars there at the spinning racer launch, so I assume it's a little kiddie car track. Sent from my Pixel 8 Pro using Tapatalk

    Lightwater Valley - Future?

    Tbh I was expecting to not enjoy my time there and was really just wanting to get a ride on on spinning coaster and go after lunch, but despite the weather being awful, it was a lovely day and the sheer potential of what is ultimately a very pretty area is massive. The spinning coaster had some...

    Visited for the first time in 15 years today, expecting to have left at 1 having run out of things to do, but stayed most of the day. The ambience at the park was lovely, and don't know how it compares to recent years, but the park was in good order and well maintained and clean. Spinning racer...

    It was the other logo displayed on there yesterday so the park seems to have listened and reacted. On it's IG page there is a black background and that makes it look much better. Sent from my Pixel 8 Pro using Tapatalk

    New logo. Certainly better than the old one. Not sure if I like it though. Sent from my Pixel 8 Pro using Tapatalk

    I'm sure I speak for most people who wanted to see a the looping star back in the UK.... Booooooooooooo. The other one I didn't even know they owned. Sent from my Pixel 8 Pro using Tapatalk

    New Coaster at Pleasurewood Hills?

    It must surely to be possible for the same type of rules that allows country parks to erect rides temporarily, and then in theory retrospectively ask for permission for permanentcy. Sent from my Pixel 8 Pro using Tapatalk

    That's the whole idea, they want it to be for anyone. Sent from my Pixel 8 Pro using Tapatalk

    17 pound for off peak, 27 quid peak season. Anyone know what that is like against the past? I think it used to be 14 quid pp, so I wonder if that is reflective of what's coming? Sent from my Pixel 8 Pro using Tapatalk

    Merlin have shown how badly maintained rides shift perspectives, and if what they have done with FI is made the place run, then fair play I say. I had, despite being a theme park fan never bothered to visit either FI or Paultons, thinking there would be nothing for me, and in both cases I was...
