The Swarm's Mutation

I really hope this is all a fad. The thrill of a new sensation will be there for the first few months but it will slowly die off.

I give it a year till they turn them back round.

Well it could be worse, atleast it's only two rows.

Yes, as the above pic is clearly just a quick photoshop just switching the actual seats round.

I'm actually not sure how they would turn them in real life. In theory, the easiest would to hire a crane and take the car of the track and turn it in mid-air while attached to the crane.

Personally, I don't think that will be the case, I reckon they will remove all of the winged seats and reach them on the other side so they just change the seats without corrupting the two rear rows, plus I believe Thorpe are keeping the aliens facing forward on the backwards facing rows.

But they will lose money I reckon from onside photos because the two backwards facing rows will not be captured by the current cameras, and 1 more row on each train won't have the video recording technology fitted, but we shall see when the park reopened or when the upload a pic of the new train configuration online.

I do agree there, Simba. I have a feeling to solve the ORP issue, they might add an extra camera on the back of the pole of the existing ones. It would save on the cost of extra wiring and new poles for the camera.

i think it is different because of there being so many wing coasters

I definatly agree it will make The Swarm different and stand out a bit more from the other Wing Coasters. I will defiantly take some picture of it when I go to TP with Doomega on March 16th.
