the comments on social media are not usually ever in the good for the park - but the same can be said for any business on social media , many always say we need new rides which we do - yes this is investment yet to market it as a new ride is wrong yet many other places have done that too so it will get a mixed reaction I feel . New people to the park wont know any different for enthusiasts we can have our won opinion

I really want to see how it looks, I can't wait to see a giant chicken on the front!

Yeah i do enjoy reading the comments on Thorpe parks page 😂

So a new carriage or the original one ?

Picture taken today, showing the tunnel going back on.

I'd really like to hear from someone inside the park with regards to what's actually going on with the track. That pics shows the old track still in situ with the tunnel going up around. Surely they aren't just replacing the odd section of track?

Well certain sections will take on more stress, but all parts of the track will still wear down.

So far I've known of 3 of these coaster to have the same issue, and all 3 of them were completely retracked.

Agreed the whole track will not have been replaced only the most worn bits

Well i just hope were not back to square one again in a couple of years with repairs failing or other parts of the track wearing i out. Just seems odd to have randomly closed it, kept it boarded up for two years and then all of a sudden bring it back. Why didn't they just fix it in the first place?

Plus they've done it fairly quickly.
Well i hope it get's a full theme than just a new paint job and name.. that station and tunnel would look pretty cool if it was done up like a Barn.

Yea that metal tunnel sheeting looked dam aweful

Another season of the concrete base to look at with everyone asking why it looks so bad

Forget about the Tide Traveller please!lol

It's obviously an old map as it still shows the play area that they moved into the back corner which has also gone (has it?)

I'm more interested in what looks like the new train design. The egg on the front with the trailing cars being.... green?

Seems odd to me. I was really pinning my hopes on a big chicken at the front, with the cars being cracked eggs, but it doesn't look that way at the moment.

A custom-built queuing area has been created and is designed to replicate a chicken coop. It will be topped off with a striking fibreglass model of a rooster and the rollercoaster itself will also be given a new lease of life and tie in with the theme.



The farmyard theme is being extended across the Lake End of the park too. Bear Necessities will become Roosters and will be transformed to look like a ‘barn’ and, in time, will also be given an undercover seating area. The mini dodgems will also be given a new look which will be unveiled later in the season. The team at 3D Creations, a company based in Gorleston, have been working their magic on the popular balloon rays which will also have a new look.
