The uniforms definitely fit in with the victorian theme to say the least :lol I can see this opening in the next 1-2 weeks, lets hope.

The uniforms are good. They are not a spoiler though, so clicked through :).

Looking forward to visiting in a couple of weeks time!

Some members may want to avoid absolutely all visuals concerning the ride, and so this is why I stated they are the uniforms and listed it as a spoiler :)

True, but it won't spoil the ride experience as they will be standing at the gate of the queue line :lol

I'm hoping they open before next Friday, that's the one day I get to go until I return to California for a year :/

Same, I'm going next Thursday, I had all hope that it would be open by then, but I'm not so sure now, if not, I'm hoping for a public soft open.

Really hoping it'll be open by the 27th, seems like that could be possible with the staff testing going on right now and everything else that's happened over the last few days!

It seems that way, but my advice to you would be please don't get your hope up to high! Just in case it doesn't open due to something taking time, or God forbid something breaks :lol

Thorpe have seemingly gone quiet on Facebook and are not replying to any more Ghost Train related posts whereas before they just replied with the generic we do not not have a date post. Maybe its a sign?

There is rumoured to be some form of announcement on Friday (to do with opening) - however it should be noted the source is very weak.

If this is true, fingers crossed it's opening sometime next week. I can see it opening Friday 24th ready for the weekend crowds.

Indeed, but please can I emphasise that the legitimacy of the person stating such information is questionable, and so prepare for this rumour to be fake just as much as it to be true.
