    Oakwood closes its doors, cites financial difficulties

    I very much doubt it will be sold. A lot of the flat rides etc are being moved on. I imagine Speed will also be moved. It's a shame as Megaphobia is the UKs best woodern ride by a mile - If it's maintained and not left to rot

    Oakwood closes its doors, cites financial difficulties

    Megaphobia after the re track was easily the best UK wooden coaster. It didn't open till 2pm, but we still managed 33 goes one after another. Just shows how quiet the park was. The after hours events were really good but it's become more and more run down every single year. Asbro knew this was...

    Small News From The Theme Park Industry

    I doubt it tbh. I don't have a clue what's happened to the park. Our last visit in 2023 when Megaphobia re opened again. 10am till 10pm close. Despite the day was very poor operation wise, it was a very good long day. I wonder if Bounces removal is something to do with the "incident" it had...

    Yep still owned by them. My old fella owns a flat and I avoided the place last year. After the Bounce incident, and Megaphobia opening at 1pm, it was pointless going!

    Small News From The Theme Park Industry

    Oakwood won't bring anything if they open this year. They have been building a haunted house for 2 years which has seen 0 progress tbh. Oakwood socials have also been quiet since 24th December - I hope Megaphobia rebuild hasn't killed them off . . . . .

    Small News From The Theme Park Industry

    Oakwood won't survive long. I visited in 2023 when Megaphobia opened at it was awesome but poorly ran. 2024 Bounce had an incident, which meant the only major rides were Megaphobia and speed (my neck can't deal with the compression in the bottom of the dips) Sad times but hopefully someone...

    Small News From The Theme Park Industry

    Bounce at Oakwood had an emergency stop activated yesterday which injured riders https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.walesonline.co.uk/news/wales-news/oakwood-theme-park-ride-closed-29517203.amp This park really needs to get its act together. With Bounce and drenched out of action, the park has...

    WTF BPB?

    I find it odd how BPB just close a ride without warning. Fair enough if it has major issues, or someone's injured, but I'm sure if they announced it was closing, Many people would visit just for that!

    Alton Towers | Nemesis Reborn | B&M Retrack | 2024

    Nemesis has had a lot of downtime today. My brother waited 2 hours in the station while they changed trains, engineers sat in certain rows, then they stuck with train 1 but only rows 1-4. When I rode it on Saturday the vibration was notable on row 2 and 4, but I didn't note the train number 🙈

    Alton Towers | Nemesis Reborn | B&M Retrack | 2024

    Visited on Saturday and managed 2nd row and 3rd row. Shame they removed the front row rider queue but a definite rattle could be heard and felt towards the later parts of the ride. The theme etc is world class tbh. Looks really good
