While the Ultimate was designed by Big Country Motioneering, they were not involved with the completion of the project. Lightwater Valley's owner got engineers from British Rail to oversee the construction. A few sections of track on the second half of the ride were redesigned to change their banking. The track was made by "Tubular Engineering". |
In a statement the park confirmed that the Ultimate will be closed for good. Park management wants to target a more child friendly demographic and the Ultimate is considered not to fit in. The coaster will be removed. |
The first car of each train has only 1 row so 38 riders total, not 40. |
