It is running , in fact, everything’s running today!

We've not purchased them yet. We were advised at time of booking that scarefest was included in the park tickets, like Thorpe park.
We've arrived today to find we have to buy tickets!
Hotel staff have said to go to ticket office when we go in park in the morning and they'll be able to sort us out.

Can anyone recommend the best times to do the scare mazes please?

We're going in on Saturday and they say to allow 90mins for the 3. We're thinking it needs to be done after dark really but we don't want to run out of time!

Any advice?

Cheers

Has galactica been running recently? What's it's down time been like?

Isn't it funny how this is already out of the news!!!
Does anyone know any inside information? In particular how the casualties are??

Surely it needs all the wheels on one side to fail for it to come off completely?

Lots of slating going on on Facebook, never been there, but seems it's a very run down park..?
Thoughts go out to all involved!

I've seen lots of people commenting their best wishes on the end of their posts on here. Please add them to the Facebook page where hopefully they'll see them https://www.facebook.com/pages/All-the-best-for-the-Alton-towers-victims/1599114493711507" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; Cheers

Could be anything then...

That interview really got my bloody boiling!

Just got home from work and heard the 1am news on the way... They're now saying the Alton towers boss has admitted the safety of their rides are not adequate!... Seriously?!!!!!!!! :@

Everybody preys fit the 4 majorly injured

I don't get that twitter video- that shows it rolling to a stop, but I'm watching the live news and it looks like it's stopped dead into the empty one?!

Very latest is the 12 minor injuries are expected to get discharged from the scene shortly where the 4 majors, who are all conscious, will be air lifted to hospital.
Please don't help spread the death rumour.

Hey guys,

We visited the park a few weeks ago and oblivion was closed due to large technical problems.


Just wondering if its now back open and what the problems were?

Cheers

Yeah thanks for the comments - as i said I didn't think it was a safely feature as such. But you've cleared that up. So i'll leave it there then.

The seatbelt is close to being not attached to the seat, where it is sewn to a loop in the chair.

Not a safety issue as such its unsafe to ride, but something i'm sure shouldn't be let go.

No, this is not at all right.

I understand the seatbelt is no part of the restraint, and is there as extra measure / ensure the harness is closed down enough..?

As i said, i don't want to complain to them, nor do i want to get anything out of it.

cheers

Hey guys. I visited alton towers at the weekend, and yesterday, I noticed what i believe to be quite a safety issue on the seat that i was in when i undone the belt. When i got off i made an operator aware who said he would look at it. As i walked off he went over to it, but someone was in the seat ...

Visited this today, and I must say, we were not impressed at all. Thought was rather pony! 2 rows of seats were closed, not a problem until I noticed it was because the sprinklers were constantly dripping on them, right in front of us! I found almost everything was out of sync, the fans would blow c...

Hey guys,

I'm off up there tonight, for early start tomorrow, for 2 days!

How busy has it been this week so far?


Cheers.

Cheers guys, will ask when I arrive. Am hoping is come and go as I like. As will go in maybe after lunch, then back into the park, then back in, 'cos I can LOL! So if you can do that with the annual passes, surely in theory you could swipe in, the pass the ticket back to someone else to swipe in...?...
