Hi Roller I can see comming, Trailblazer is quite a bit up north for this fair.
It would be good if a more southern attraction got a place, Baileys Terminator 2 would do just fine.

No chance of seeing that, they are keeping it around the Kent areas only at low profile, until the major revamp work is finished in the Winter, no doubt i'll be the first to see it finished next year, if it's finished on time hopefully. 8)

That's out of the question then.

Not good, I heard it was having repairs so hopefully it will be ready.
The main problem cropped up at the start of the season, the safety bars stopped opening automatically and had to be opened manually at the end of each run. Then recently, a month or so back, one of the arms stopped lifting up, a hydrolic problem.
The changes are quite dramatic compared with previous years, let's hope these spots get filled.

Ive heard Tagadas have been banned from Goose because of an accident about 10 years ago, so Gambles Extreme will (hopefully) be going on site 92. Also M&Ds white water isnt actually new to Goose it has been before sometime around 2000-2002 i think.

No great loss if it doesn't as Evans's Reflex Experience is going also. Not my favourite ride on the fair as I had a rather bad experience (pun not intended!) on one back in 2006. :sick:

Sedgewicks machine looks so much better, it's also operated brilliantly. Henry doesn't even use the flood lights fitted to the machine anymore
Here are some high quality build up photos, courtesy of Tim Holmes.

More duplications!
3 Orbiters now with Crows and Gambles Extremes' plus Keith James Hard Rock Orbiter.
The amount of duplications is getting beyond a joke now

I didn't think Crows was comming to the event this year, I am surprised.
Still, at least people will figure out which one is the best. 8)

Been looking at some older photos. I like the old look of Elliot Halls tb2, the floor old artwork is excellent, wish it still looked like it.

What happened to that machine it's awesome. I'm guessing it was re-themed for another showman.
Larry Gray's move it was another fantastic machine, later toured by family member Victor Gray. I think this was sold abroad to the Netherlands.

Another ride which dissapeared was Perrin Print's MegaMix, I think this is a much better example than the current Mega Spin which in on tour. Seen here at Goose 2004.
