Gold Rush

[DR88]

I've never knew a ride that isnt quite a year old yet break down so much...

It is an Intamin ride, a lot of their rides seem to have issues within the first few years. The Intamin curse.

I spoke to staff and it is more than likely gonna be operational with 1 train for the rest of the season. Then I think it won’t be available to the start of the main season so they can get it back to 2 train operation and add maybe more kicker wheels so if it stalls again they can easily get it back to the launch or lift hill.

Gold Rush currently shut, loud popping noise came from just after the breaks at about 3pm after a train went over. Maintenance are working on it as I speak.

Was thinking cause it’s only on 1 train and with the queues your only really gonna get on the ride once or if your lucky twice in a day could they bring back the Random choice now as I not done cycle 1 this year.

The sound bar under the Video Screen is STILL muted! Been that way for more than 2 weeks. KInda ruins the experience. They're now piping the sound from the queuing area into the entrance to the station.

That could be fixed in 2 minutes if Drayton Manor employed more (or a) supervisor!

The sound bar is also upside down, which irrationally annoys me every time I see it!

It's now un-muted - unfortunately the volume is so low that you can't hear it until you're at the top of the stairs. :-(
