Making screams come true
Now?
I reckon that it's a pretty safe bet that someone will post the very MOMENT they KNOW that the ride is ready, so yeah, why not just wait until such time arrives? [:P]
Do you know how long it takes for word to get across the pond!? Last time the UK built a ride I didn't hear about it for a year and a half!

LOL, is it ready yet mikey?

OMG, They have mastered the art of dropping trains!
Well, we all knew that's what it was going to do, but it's nice to see an actual animation of it.
Yuh i was joking you pie munching nothern bastard. (can i talk, nope 
).
It doesn't look too impressive, needs to be a 100ft+ in my opinion, meh. Should give a nice little pop of air though.

Hopefully. Problem is this would be a good family ride if it weren't for the theming. Take Mine Train Ulven, a ride of a similar model by Intamin. Superb family coaster, but Thirteen has theming that will scare the kiddies pointlessly. Seems stupid to be honest.
Looks like a teddy bears picnic in the woods to me.
Anything to keep the queue shorter as well. But seriously man Alton didn't build this to be a family coaster, they havn't come across bothered about scaring the shxt into anyone, which they know is good for the hype of the coaster and it generates huge business and interest, like they did with the proposed age-limit.
I seriously cant wait to ride it though regardless, looks very interesting.

I wonder what there technical setup is for recovering, dropping, and launching the train off the table. I hope it doesn't suffer from problems like turn tables and slide tables do.
^ I'm sure there will be fairly major downtime, the majority of the time.
yeah it will be broken half the day just like air, ohh sorry no air is broken down 90% of the day
