Thorpe Park Close Season update December 2024

[@tayo0404]

Hyperia's first closed season since opened.... Thank you for the update!

That black box is from the car park it used to just be a little car park payment kiosk thing, then was used as the control box for legacy in 21/22 :)

Those rumba rafts look like they have a thresh paint job looking more vibrant with Thorpe park written on it rather than the old logo, the inflated sacks also look newer 3:21

Yeah, I did wonder why parts of Nemesis Inferno's supports where painted white when I was there this year. Hopefully they'll add a front seat queue line in the Station for Hyperia...

[@UKThemeParks]

That would be good

Hi Adam, interesting to hear about some progress r.e. closed season works, thanks for sharing your thoughts. Cheers Peter 🙂

They can finally focus on the top of the lift hill without stress of reopening quickly

[@BritishCoasterGuy]

with the "boost mode" that is used for testing they cannot run more than 5 rows of test dummies as the sped up train risks causing structural damage, this a shorten downed version of what i have been told by people who work on the ride.

[@UKThemeParks]

Makes sense!

[@Themeparkthrilluk]

But if that was the case they wouldn’t be able to use the boost mode with a full train of people if they can’t use more than 5 rows of dummies ?

[@BritishCoasterGuy]

@@Themeparkthrilluk they never run the boost mode with passengers as the forces will be too extreme. in the operator book it specifically says not to operate with guests

[@Themeparkthrilluk]

@ ooh that’s interesting

[@monkeygaming2841]

Which ride?

[@Louie_Hyperia]

Is colossus getting re painted again?

[@UKThemeParks]

Only half is currently done
