Paint Testers - Blackpool Pleasure Beach

Mr. Splash

Just thought that this was a bit interesting since Blackpool have just announced that a new ride is coming for 2007. These images show that the spare Big One track has had what seems like paint samples painted on. Could this be the future of the 2007 ride?

To me it looks more like they had a flash flood and one of there pipes exploded.

I recon that tirquoise colour will be one of the colours used throughout the Infusion ride as it all seems very blue.

The concept art makes it look better than it will be, over-hyped ride severely.

If you go here - http://www.pleasurebeachextra.co.uk/constructionimages.htm you can see photos of what the new track looks like. And from what I have heard, part of the station is now up. :D

^^ Found out that one train was nice, and one was evil! Besides, this is a relocated SLC. Its bound to hurt!

Thats a load of s**t. Just becasue it has been relocated doesn't mean it will make the ride worse. The ride will be as good as new when it has been put up.

Well it won't have exactly the same profile as before. When track is disected and welded together again it is likely to make the track a little less smoother. Mind you it hasn't moved far so it won't have had much battering from travel.

Also Oz what do you mean about one train being evil?

Read through my post. I'm stating that it will be slightly LESS smooth.

Yeah it can pretty much be said now that theses paints were for Infusion. It's hard to believe that less than a year ago this was a rumour.
