The Coaster Thats SBNO: Will Scorpion Express EVER RETURN At Chessington?| August 2024

[@OhSnapItsAbi]

i miss the old theming when it was the runaway train, it was almost like a mini thunder mountain, I loved how it went inside the rocks it was quite exciting, I think when they changed it to scorpion express it lost its charm. I would like to see it come back but I too sadly think its come to an end. Great video by the way! :D

Guess we will see what happens for its future!!

Nice update 👍 it would be really good if it opened for 2025, if it didn't maybe a smaller version of gold rush at drayton manor would be a good fit with the wild West theme

[@sophiaparkadventures]

I imagine in my opinion it wont re open :( but we shall see!

[@Theme_Park_Mad]

There Has Been Some Deliver's Recently Around the ride so finger crossed for 2025

[@sophiaparkadventures]

[@petermc7098]

Hey Sophia. I went to Chessington the other day. It's sad to see Scorpion Express in this state as loads of people enjoyed ridding it but hopefully there's hope but would need alot of work. Summer Festival isn't to bad I liked some of the shows. Roll on Howl.o.ween.

[@sophiaparkadventures]

Glad you liked the event! Bring on Halloween!

Great video Sophia, luckily I experienced it back in 2017. It's a shame that it's been SBNO for 2 years

[@sophiaparkadventures]

I know! Wr shall find out the future soon im sure!

[@attractionshubno1]

@@sophiaparkadventures Yeah and fingers crossed 🤞🏻 that we do find out what the future holds for Scorpion Express 🚂

Hi There, it could go either two ways, one being a permanent closure announced in 2025 or an extensive refurbmishment throughout the 2024 / 2025 closed season and it reopening for 2025. The missing EQB has apparently been moved to "High Striker" as that one broke. Kind regards Peter

[@sophiaparkadventures]

I recon unfortunately this could be a permanent closure :(

[@petermc7098]

Fair enough but why didn't they do this much sooner​@@sophiaparkadventures
