This is a recording of our talk about the history of X:\ No Way Out and X, which we presented three times as part of the eXpo:\2018 event, live at Thorpe Park on the 7th of April 2018.
X:\ No Way Out was Thorpe Park's first non-powered roller coaster which opened in 1996, it was an indoor roller coaster which went backwards in the dark.
In 2013 the ride was re-themed to become X, now facing forwards this coaster featured bright lights, lasers and loud club music.
In 2018, after 22 years of operating at the park, the ride has received it's biggest change as it has now re-opened as The Walking Dead: The Ride.
Join us as we take a look back at over 22 years worth of theme park history!
Also during the eXpo:\2018 event John Burton from Merlin Magic Making gave a talk about creating The Walking Dead: The Ride, showing a large number of concept images for the first time. A recording of John's talk can be found here: • eXpo:\2018 - John Burt... .
