    Hello There, a fantastically well detailed/well made walkthrough of the Vampire, with a good balance of guidance and exploration, thank you for publishing this as it's really interesting to see how the Vampire actually works and maintained. Cheers Peter

    Very cool, wish I could have the chance to have been there - the Vampire Ride has always been my absolute favourite!

    Actually Bobejaanland's suspended coaster is an early vekoma suspended- not an arrow. Vampire remains the only arrow suspended coaster outside of America- and 1 among only 5 operating in the world

      They should hire a company to recreate the original cars for it.

    WOW awesome video! i have been going on this ride for pretty much its whole life, i remember vividly the change between arrow and verkoma, and its seems like yesterday.
    i can also rememeber when samurai was there and it was such a huuge deal when that opened!

    Ironically, I once wrote a short story involving a teenager loosing his shoe on Vampire, sneaking behind the ride to get it, getting lost, and meeting a freindly ghost named Charles in the park's nonexistant junkyard, which stored the transfer track and the original trains.

    Was this videoed while Chessington was owned by Tussauds as the engineers jacket has the Tussaud Chessington logo

    • @thechessingtonmagpie6055
      @thechessingtonmagpie6055 2 года назад

      Good spot! Although the video was uploaded in 2010, I reckon it was from 2009 as that was the final year of the Merlin/Tussauds logo. It changed to the logo we see today in 2010, when KOBRA opened.

    @prestprestprestprest 4 года назад

    Fun fact: did you know that people would have to be 1.2 to get on the arrow trains? That’s why they changed it in 2001 to vekoma so smaller adventurers good go on it.

    • @McPizzaPerson
      @McPizzaPerson 8 лет назад +3

      TheFlyingPenguinMan - In Vampire's Later Years, It Started Breaking Down & Having Maintenance Problems, By The It Was Getting Refurbished, Arrow Dynamics (The Original Manufacturers) Had Gone Bankrupt. So For The Whole Of 2001, Vampire Was Closed. & Then In 2002, Vampire Reopened After Being Refurbished & Having The New Vekoma Trains!

    • @louiswright8282
      @louiswright8282 4 года назад

      Hopefully they can rebuild the original trains and replace the vekoma ones.

    • @MapleMTPT2
      @MapleMTPT2 2 года назад

      They can't Because it would create too much stress to the ride and arrow isn't a thing anymore

  • @keymon21
    @keymon21 11 лет назад +1

    The ability to open the ride was the main thing gained. The old system was knackered and with the manufacturers not making bits to fix it any more an alternative system had to be sourced. This was the rather inelegant result. Shame, the old trains were way better.

      @themeparkamazing9489 7 лет назад

      Ever since it opened, but there are 3 different versions. The original 1990 version, the 2002 refurbishment version and the remixed 2014 version.

    • @MapleMTPT2
      @MapleMTPT2 2 года назад

      Now remixed in 2020.

    @Antce94 14 лет назад

    @wwwCOASTERFORCEcom Thats ok. Did'nt mean to say it the way I did and not explain myself. How do you do it though, as in... how do you manage to get good recordings onride without staff telling you to put it away or like this, being able to get behind the scenes.. I would love to take my group about. Do you think you could help?

    Hope to see you soon.

  • @Antce94
    @Antce94 14 лет назад

    @wwwCOASTERFORCEcom Bit rude, but what ever... and i ment a "Behind the scenes" not a documentary... even though leigh did a great job on them!

  • @Antce94
    @Antce94 14 лет назад

    @wwwCOASTERFORCEcom Do you think you can do one for TH13TEEN or SAW?!

    • @joshuahicks4574
      @joshuahicks4574 4 года назад

      You cant just do it, it is prearranged by the parks and is only done when the ride has a huge issue that will take the entire season to fix. Also not much to see on Saw, relatively short ride time.

  • @Antce94
    @Antce94 14 лет назад
