Dynamo

Alton Towers needs more flat rides!

The Corkscrew. Never got the chance to ride it, so I would love to have it back!

Alton Towers have such a terrible selection of flat rides.

Submission: although special at the time, the crushing restraints aren't worth a ride.

Enterprise: Vomit inducing ride, which isn't anything special.

Blade: Worst swinging ship i've been on.

Ripsaw: Great ride when run on a decent setting (like Chessington), but after 8 visits over 2 years, only had a good setting once!

I was thinking of more, and realised is that it....

Dynamo & Boneshaker were really great rides, and part of my childhood (only remember riding dynamo once, luckily i was just tall enough as it was removed the year after - was gutted) and would happily see them, or a similar style ride return.

Corkscrew or black hole as I never got to ride either of them...

Black hole for me never got to ride it and it looked an ace ride with great theming

Corkscrew very good ride, wish I could ride it again.

Several, Boneshaker, never got to ride it as Energizer but Boneshaker was still good. It could be so easily rethemed into Dark Forest style and look epic.

Black Hole as I never got to ride it.

The ride before Air, cant remember name, never got to ride it but looked alright (not better than air).

Wouldnt want any current rides removed for these old ones but if one could come back in a new location that would be really cool. One could go where the beastie was.

Newer models as well.

I did wonder what was so nice looking about thunder looper

Corkscrew, as I never got the chance to ride it, and it seems like it was kind of the 'original' Alton Towers rollercoaster, in my opinion at least.

The ride I would bring back?
Simple! The Black Hole!
The greatest dark ride
From here to the south pole.

Yeah, the corkscrew was great,
And Alton does need flats,
But the black hole was the only ride
Dark enough for bats.

RIP the Black Hole,
This legend was our friend,
And although you're gone from towers,
Your legend will never end.

I'd bring back Dynamo, break dances are awesome!

Oh I have said this sooo many times ENERGIZER ENERGIZER ENERGIZER!!!!

I'd have to say Swan Boats! Very peaceful and dry as opposed to Battle Galleons!

Yes, bring back the swan boats, they never ruined my phone the way those pirate boats managed to !
I rode corkscrew and black hole but they were both past their best by the end so removal was probably the kindest option, sort of like having a well loved but poorly family pet put out of its misery and then go out and buy a better, newer one ! 

I would quite like the Swan Boats back, Alton appear to have a lack of decent water rides. I'm not even going to count Battle Galleons as I've been mid-summer and still not fancied it, and the flume's a bit old, and will probably soon be gone for refurbishment, and woe betide those who count Charlie as a decent water ride!

That just leaves Congo River Rapids and Ripsaw, but these are both old, and can't have much more than 10 years on them. Bringing back the swan boats is actually a very good idea!

Purely for nostalgia's sake, bring back Toyland Tours or the Beastie!!!
