What's new

Pirate Adventure

Went on the Thomas train and the maintenance bay was partly open and they installed new lights around the inside of the ride and it looked like they started work inside the building.
Also at the front it looks like they opened the front doors and started to clear the queue line.

Like I can’t understand Drayton Manor the park is always busy and the car park full but they can’t make a profit but at Paultons they can add well themed areas with excellent selection of rides but outside peppa pig land the queues are on average 15 mins or less and the kids in Peppa pig land would be free to get in so can’t understand how they been family owned can afford to add all theses new areas and rides over the past 10 years where really only the Rapids and Gold Rush would have cost the looping group big money.
Now back on to pirate adventure it’s the only area of the park that’s only tided up since they took over in 2020 and having the Bounty nearby if they move the Carousel to Adventure Cove they got a good big area to work with and they will be stupid to get rid of the pirate theme when 3 of the rides are currently themed to it.
 
Paultons built all of Vanguard for the cost of Gold Rush. Paultons rides tend to be shorter with high capacity and better theming which is cheaper then extravagant new ride models.
 
Would like to see them restore the whole Pirate Adventure Castle from Front to back was a really awesome facade
I think they only themed the right side of the building cause of it could be seen from the Jungle Cruise ride. If they don’t use that area again they may only do the front, all around Thomas land and part way down the right side. It also will all depend on if they do go down the pirate route but having 3 rides in the area themed to pirates it would still make sense to pick the theme.
They do need to look at removing it all back to the show building as it’s too dangerous and more could fall off soon.
 
What if the entire site is infested with bats? Bats are protected. It would explain why nothing has happened with it?

Maybe they're waiting for the bats to bugger off before they can do anything with it? Maybe they don't want to go official, and are just playing the waiting game and hoping they leave?

With how bright it was from what I could see from the little gap in the maintenance door as the train passed by. I very doubt there is any animals living in the building and I think with all the current work that’s been going on in the building it’s been done by the teams own work force.

I think Sandy is trying to deter us from looking at his home...

...Maybe he's the HEAD Vampire... ;-)
