Meaning the deal fell through? Not on our part - The owners of the coaster.

Not meaning anything really, just "!" & :(

So as it's not happening, would you be able to us what coaster it was?

has PWH considered a mini exhibition of the parks history or maybe a walk in the train restaurant covered in items from PWH history?

Despite having many owners over the years, how well documented is the parks historical development?

Have many things been thrown away or is there a large vault full of archive photos, props, posters, plans etc.

Maybe it would be worth have the exhibition as a permenant fixture?

Unfortunatly there is a lot that has been lost, but I've found some cracking stuff that I don't want to exhibit; I want to restore and get back on the park. Whilst I'm here - Hows this for a little sneak peak before I post to Facebook? ;)

Wow that's awesome Ben. I love the Hobs Pit mine car design! How long has Hibs Pit been in development? Was just in the last year or do or has it been on the table for a while?

When the Fairytale Fantasy closed there were ideas being thrown around. One of them being a laboratory/experiment gone wrong = Zombies thing. This was dismissed as it would be a little too far out in keeping with what we have at PWH. Then the man, Steve Harvey, who drew the designs above; came up with the Hobs Pit Concept. Alexis walked through the building and relayed how he wanted the ride to flow. - The rest is for the official launch party ;)

A thing to remember with this management: If a ride closes. It will either be replaced or refurbed. Nothing will be EVER taken away.

I don't think any of us knew FF was actually closing and it was in it's last year last season. I'm kinda glad I had one last go on it and also took my little girl on it. It will be missed but it was definitely time to go though.

In all honestly, the management didn't know it was closing until it was ridden one day and the decision was made there and then.

Love Steve's drawings... So much so infact I'm not sure on the "new" Woody cartoon. Just an example of confusion in the emporium you have tshirt with American woody, money boxes with 2008 sailor woody and now we have 2013 Woody. Is it still the hands of Steve?

Give me 18 months and everything 'Woody' will be in brand. I arrived a little too late in 2013 to stop a few things happening with cross-branding/concepts. The new artwork for Woody was developed by an artist who works with Disney. :)

I like the idea of various versions of Woody around the park, it pays tribute to his 'life' in some ways.

 When you say 'new Woody' are you referring to the one we see now or one we have yet to see?

The one you see now. - I was referring to the artwork around park mainly. Although I agree with you to an extent Bubbles; it needs to happen when we choose it too, not by accident. Take Disney for example; they still have the 'retro' Mickey as drawn by Walt himself - BUT, they market that as such. Mickey of old days. What we have at PWH is mish-mash of styles and themes unmanaged. It effectively looks messy. :)

I now see what you're saying. Lots of different designs on park create a mish mash of Woodys! I agree it will be nice to have them all the same as well as artwork of old but states it so. Having some 'retro woody' merchandise would be quite cool?

I spy concept art for Wipeout too!

And that reminds me, Ben, could you find the honest answer to why Wipeout has 4/8 random seats kept out of use?

It's not information as such - I see it as showing the general public, things don't just 'happen'. Even down to little details somewhere, someone is actually passionate about what we're doing or have done. - This is no different in the ethos of the current management team. Glad you're enjoying it though Matt :)

Think it would be nice to bring back Woody friends, in a more permanent position... instead of having Woody's face on everything.
Getting people back into those costumes for a couple of hours a day when the park is really busy would be nice.
