Yeah that annoyed me as for local advertising here they could've just said Irelands first steel coaster.

The plans for the new rollercoaster have been rejected. By complaints of noise by 4 local residents. This to me is very bad news I saw amarican adventure die due to a few locals not liking a theme park on there doorstep.

That's quite surprising, I hadn't realised it had gone to appeal after being accepted late last year.

Would expect that outcome to significantly impact any expansion plans for the park.

Whist this is bad news and they will have to re evaluate their expansion plans. It does also mean that they can improve on their original plans. Because in my opinion, the coasters planned had quite whack layouts. Make them different, add a few sound proofing methods, reduce the height and maybe put a few elements towards the ground. Tayto Park has a lot of potential and they deserve to do good!
