    I'm from Cornwall and from 1986ish we use to cone up for 5 days the first time I ever stood inside the pleasure Beach, there was a terror warning as there was a mp conference
    I couldn't live in the hisses so close. To the funfair. There was a amusement arcade near the tower , it had a indoor roller coasteresk type ride and the yellow brick rd from film wizard of oz. The amount of people that was there on holiday was unbelievable

    I loved the beginning talking about the station… I remember watching the BPB TV series talking about the innovative and unprecedented design of the station and stating that If they can fit a station in the area then they can build a coaster
    Out of curiosity what do they do in a roll back situation on the big one? How do they recover the train?

    • @yourexperienceguide
      @yourexperienceguide  2 года назад

      Thank you, it was a great tour. It entirely depends where it rolls back in terms of how they'd rescue the train.

    I am so happy that black pool is taking such good care of this big american coaster. Arrow coasters in america are treated like trash. The only few that are kept up nice are viper at magic mointain, magnum at cedar point, space mountain at disney world, and matter horn at disney land. The rest are all nocked by enthusists and gp not understanding how much arrow did for the coaster community and is the reason we have massive crazy rides today. If cedar point ever closes magnum i am going to be very pissed off. That ride deserves to get a set of new trains and some track work. Wonder if they could put intamin t bar trains on it.

    • @yourexperienceguide
      @yourexperienceguide  Год назад

      Magnum XL-200 is a truly special coaster, I will be devastated if they modernise or remove it. The retracking on the Big One is prolonging the lifespan, it’d maybe have to permanently close without the work being done.
