Drayton Manor Rides and Attractions
Apocalypse, Maelstrom, Pandemonium and Shockwave; not names you want to tangle with, and neither are the rides that they belong to. Take Apocalypse, a vertical drop ride named the UK's scariest ride by The Gadget Show. Or Maelstrom, a revolving gyro-swing that involves facing the heavens. And then there's Shockwave, Europe's one and only stand-up coaster, and the first of its kind to feature a zero-g roll.
Thrills aplenty then, but what can little'uns look forward to during a Drayton Manor break? How does a portion of the park dedicated to Thomas the Tank Engine sound? That's right, Drayton Manor is home to Thomas Land, an area where everyone's favourite talking train is brought to life. Along with Thomas themed attractions, there's lots of rides built especially for young thrill seekers, including the Cranky Crane Drop Tower, Rocking Bullstrode and Diesels Locomotion Mayhem.
