New photos of Nemesis at Alton Towers show how the revamp is now well underway - six months after it closed to the public. The rollercoaster operated for the last time on November 6, 2022 before shutting temporarily.
This was so it could be repainted and the entire track could be replaced, Derby Telegraph reports. And just days ago, a convoy of heavy duty lorries arrived carrying the brand new track, which is black with red "vein" detailing, in contrast to the previous white design seen on the ride.
Nemesis is scheduled to open again next year - the ride weighs 250 tonnes and is 716 metres long. It will have been out of action for almost a year and a half by the time it's ready for thrill-seekers to ride again. But Alton Towers representatives ensure it will be worth the wait.
