PurpleTree Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 It looks like a mix between a rollercoaster and a ghost train http://www.altontowers.com/thirteen/ Haven't been to Alton Towers for ages, wonder if hubby and I could get a weekend away next year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fluffyfeet Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 Saw this being built last year - its where the Corkscrew used to be. I know that there is some new technology being used, a double helix or something, but dont quote me. If you go on the Alton towers site you get a good idea of what it does. They are going to re-theme Rita as the area where these are is going to be known as Dark Forest mwahahahaha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A chickychickychick-ENN!! Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 I am sad. I never went to Alton Towers and now I'll never go on the Corkscrew. Wikipedia says 13 will have the world's first freefall drop rollercoaster. Whatever that means. Does anyone know what that means? Isn't Oblivion a freefall droppy thingy?

chickencam Posted March 18, 2010 Share Posted March 18, 2010 We saw this ride being built when we went to Alton Towers last August. I wonder how they will re-theme Rita, it is an awesome ride, so fast your face nearly falls off. DS & ED rode at the front, their faces were fab. They made me take my glasses off, the most scary part for me eas whether or not i would get them back at the end of the ride We had a fab time there, DS had been with his school a in June and had chickened out of most of the big rides except Air, which is funny because that was the only one that made me feel ill. If it is like Oblivion only more dark then it will be quite something. Falling vertically into a dark concrete shaft filled with steam is interesting to say the least Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
