Didn’t realise what this meant til I rocked in for the last hour of opening, they’ve actually learned from Levi & opened it for guests pre-grand opening. Actual good job, VRTP!

Does it come with a HSP at the end?÷

@Tricoartnext time just say between the Sky Voyager & the Kebab Shop Ride. Nobody will have issues with that.

I was thinking that lol, but thought context would be enough for it to be understood what DWF I was referring to. DF just doesn’t sound right to me, ig.

Thats a really long pathway to the Dreamworld Wildlife Foundation. I can't even find where it is on the map, but i'm assuming it's somewhere near the Tigers? That's called 'East'. It is apparently quite common to balance things out maintenance wise, but I only ever see West running. First there was blue screen, then there was green screen. Now beige screen is used to hide objects in front of a plain coloured wall. The sign is nice enough but the colour choices are horrible against the background store colour.

The Churro sign is hard to see. I don't know if DW choose the best colours here.

Image dump from today, in some form of order: Overview of Jungle Rush’s site from Corroborree: Scaffolding/work walls have gone up around the Corroborree: Images of the (soon to be) ride building: (which, basic walls have begun to go up for) And, of Jungle Rush’s track in the carpark: Plus some images of the new Vintage Cars plot in its current state (in case you were wondering, the old one is still seemingly untouched):

The Flash is undergoing technical rehearsals (thanks to ChrisEvans via TSPN)

‘Cause there’s no general Dreamworld Update page, and most of these qualify, non-Rivertown images/updates from today: Touch-ups are being done on the pathway between Sky Voyager & DWF. Giant Drop is running the opposite side (not the one facing ST). And (I thought this had already been posted here, but I couldn’t find it so I’ll post anyway) there’s a new sign atop the redone Churro stand.

I haven't seen this before. More information here: https://earthstory.com.au/portfolio-dreamworld-jungle-rush.html

it looked really good in 2010. Not so much these days.

Let's hope DW do better than the Scarab attack on Treasure Hunters. I don't like that effect at all.

Just so we're clear, they aren't cardboard.

Thought I was tripping with @REGIEs response… But no it’s just not there. Anyone know what actually happened to the 2nd train?

Hasn’t been there for a while now.

Haven't seen it in years, and I do visit the park frequently enough. Not even over the peak summer period they had the 2nd train in the storage bay, so it must be used for parts ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.

It's usually always in the extra bit of track on the right of the unload area. Never seen it used though so I guess they just use one of them while the other gets worked on. I know other people have said they have seen both operating but no for ages. bit late now but with the coaster cut outs I think part of it's possible* under selling (which could be wrong maybe it sold well) is because it's so darn expensive! Apart from coaster enthusiasts and the odd tourist not many people can fork out $50 for some cardboard cut outs. It's priced way too high. I love leviathan and cutouts but I have not bought it. $50 is just too much.

They’ll be all new cars similar to the ones that Universal Singapore has. And I’d say there will definitely be a lot more vehicles available since they’ll be brand new and electric

Would be cool if they mixed the old cars with the new.. even though they are probably different systems it would be sick

I think it's a great option to have it so you can see what rides will be open when you go but it should definitely co-exist with the old system. I often use that to plan a day to go. This new system almost discourages me to plan a trip. But if it do-existed with the old system it would make it easier again. The new website looks good though

Yeah. I wish they just were gonna keep using the old Model T's for the new ride and just add a shade cover on the cars. So unique to have such a sort-after car on a ride. Would be a shame to have them sit around rotting. I would rather that than scraped though. Selling them is their best option imo

Are they slowly trying to change the name to Uncle Rush, one letter at a time?

Surely they will retheme the motor coaster to blend a little better and not take away from the Rivertown entrance? Rivertown Racers, Dirt Bike Derby, Murrisippi Motorcross? There are plenty of easy to blend in themes they could go with, even if all they did was retheme that horribly tacky green building/entrance sign. do we have any word about the possibility of this? Thinking of the dingo racers at Aussie world, pretty cheap but fairly effective. They don’t need to spend a fortune, you don’t want it to take away from the Rivertown entrance, but just something to blend in nicely could be fairly affordable/easy to do… we keep saying ‘get rid of it’ but they won’t, not for a long time. It’s still fairly popular with kids/families.

Hopefully DW have invested putting a lot more cars on the track, than DW run with the vintage cars.
