The ride, theming and building were only used for 3 years before it closed, which only due to the accident on the smiler meaning the company has to cut costs, it makes perfect sense for this to come back, a little sprucing up and it's essentially a new ride to most visitors for very little outlay. It's also a PR advertising board for the return of Nemesis in 2024, and near to the soon to reopen Duel.
Why would they build a brand new queue line and put up a temporary work fense and do work inside and leave that gate open next to the phalanx truck for access if they weren’t planning on bringing it back? It’s definitely coming back
I’m not 100% yet…getting closer. However, with Nemesis closed and some of the Retro Squad now gone, it would make sense to open another ride, especially in that area. Towers is gonna need to make up those losses as it was still low on flats before! I hope it comes back. I liked it. Just not exactly the same.
Hopfully when it comes back (and I think it will having seen this) that it's not just the exact same, I hope that it's been improved and updated, they've had long enough! Ha
I hope they do bring it back, it was an interesting ride, even if it wasn't the most thrilling. Wasn't there an issue with the ride system though? Its been closed so long I can't remember the exact reason they gave.
Not sub terra related, but right at the beginning of the video, I wonder what that orange vehicle is on the monorail track, cleaning machine? Inspection vehicle?
I mean this makes sense now with how phalanx has ’taken over’ nemesis and how it’s getting re-tracked and a new colour scheme. I hope theme wise instead of the Alien exterior for nemesis‘s station, that its made to look like a top secret government facility the way sub terra looks from the outside. But then I feel like x sector is also that theme with the top secret government facility aesthetic. There needs to be a clear difference.
Only 8 weeks to go now. The closed season has gone so quick it only feels like yesterday when we were having our very last rides on the old Nemmy and enjoying the fireworks display? 😊 I kind of guessed a while ago that they were bringing it back as otherwise they are going to struggle to get as many people into Forbidden Valley with only the Rollercoaster Restaurant plus Galactica to keep everyone going until Nemmy comes back next year.
Please Like, drop a comment and subscribe, it really does help me to make more of these videos 🙂
on the app there is no information about sub terra , i’m most excited for this video
Same here! 😊
I think this will answer everything tbh
Leading the way with Alton Towers update content, my friend!
@@Coastsandcoasters thank you so much for the love, it means a lot!

Should be fun to see the spice that's added eh:)

That's the one, you can even see the work inside too.

I think people could get out of the lap bars, so hopfully they'll be dealing with that while they fix the rest of it up
Hard to see on my zoom, what work has been happening inside? Looks like there’s a “03” on the floor but I can’t really see
There is evidence of works like off cuts and bags the gates open and yes the numbers on the floor
It is good if you keep coming on my recommend
It's exactly what needs to happen to grow, so that's fantastic

I'm pretty sure it's an inspection vehicle we have a in depth Monorail video tomorrow too :)
Nice I hope it comes back 👍🏻
Fingers crossed
It probably will, because why are they doing this to it.
@@explodinggrenade3567 I think this video will have the answers you seek.
It be ace if this did reopen again. Last time I went on this was in October 2014.
Dunno about you but I think it will, I must admit I think my last ride 2016 or 2017? It's crazy
@@squaddingquads it closed in 2015 mate

That's a really good point, it's also almost a shame both areas are not like too, if that makes sense
What's the long poles on the floor bottom right of the shot at 1:55 , ride parts?
It's the supports from balde, happens every winter, it'll be back in in a few weeks
thank you that’s amazing
Glad you enjoyed it

Time really has flown by hasn't it.
Ps don't forget Blade ;)
I've heard they could be adding VR onto the drop towers (the headsets from Galactica, to make the experience longer
VR onto what ride sorry?
@@squaddingquads sorry, sub terra, adding the VR to the drop towers
@@JD-ii7ci oh blimey
Any idea on when this might be reopening?
All I can say is this year, unfortunately I have no insider info
@@squaddingquads oh ok thx for telling me
@@TheMVanTutorials as soon as o know more, I will let everyone know :)
@@squaddingquads ok c:
I say it many times, but if this all amounts to nothing then Alton have pulled off the greatest troll of all time
I'm SURE that it won't....... Or will it.....
