That’s still in there as you exit the ride it’s on your right. The chairs from the building are currently on sale on eBay 4 for £10

Just went on him before having lunch. I realized the carts are a bit damaged all the carts have scratched names the one I went on didn't even have a name! And the faces are quite damaged as well but it's still a nice smooth ride

I never noticed the carts being damaged so it probably isn't anything too major that needs repairing straight away, however they could do with some paint/TLC to make them look better as after all they do go around a fair chunk of Thomas Land.

Yes it's mostly the paint chiping off it

Well the ride is 10 years old and in its 1st season the roofs could easily be removed.

Can it not be removed now

 

[Themeparksandy1981]

Can it not be removed now

Not sure but it may not be easy and with our poor weather for a less than 2 min ride is it worth it.

 

[James no5]

Fair point there

Id say TLC on this ride is probably quite low on the agenda for the park at the moment.

(But then again, with the exhibition moving in downstairs, it may be on the mind as a point to consider)

I was talking about why they don’t remove the roofs off the ride anymore

Oh yeah there's that- didn't mean to quote tag that message

My points are more about the idea of it getting tlc down the line

 

[Themeparksandy1981]

The ride at the start of the day had no cars on the track.

They were working hard to get it working

New seat belts

We broke down on it for a good 15 to 20 mins

No he probably called Harold to pick them up
