You may fountain him, but he's not wrong. I can also guarantee at least 1 6pm news show will go off on a tangent for at least 30 seconds to properly remind people of the incident.

For any that might be interested there is an upcoming investigative documentary on the ABC regarding the 1979 Luna Park Ghost Train fire. Award winning journalist Caro Meldrum - Hanna is investigating a 42 year old mystery - the ghost train fire at Sydney Luna Park in 1979 #ExposedABC starts 16 March 8.30pm (NSW time) This is not to be missed as the full extent and investigation of the rumours surrounding the Luna Park Sydney Ghost Train fire are laid bare!! This is a must view if you love Amusement park history- especially the tragic circumstances surrounding this terrible event in our most beloved amusement park. Set you recorders or watch on Iview I am sure this will be very interesting viewing!

Seems interesting. I will be sure to watch it. Uh, what? Anyways, I found the gondolas from Tumblebug listed on gumtree. Joylands seems to be selling them off so if you have the space and really want one for whatever reason, you can get one. https://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/austral/antiques/historic-tumblebug-condolars/1267937243

I was curious about this myself and I looked it up. TOT publicly was announced to have cost about $17m in 1997. With inflation, that would be about $26m in 2020. So technically Taipan is the biggest single investment. Sky Voyager publicly cost $20m but god knows how much it actually cost with all the extra bullshit they had to go through in getting it open.

OMG! I LOVE PEOPLE DYING ON THE GHOST TRAIN 👻 😍 🔥! Do you think that people love the Ghost Train Fire? I know that I'm over reacting.. But seriously, do people act like that? If so, I'll reveal that I'm a reptilian! Oh....... s..... *reptlian noises* t.....

Far out DW fanboys, a lot of people have involvement in a project. But someone says Kudos to whoever at VRTP signed off on it, and say well direct your kudos to DW then. Then it's a case of 'No, he didn't sign off on it' and it's like 'Well he was probably involved, and who cares anyway'. Well no one does except for some reason people wanted to attribute the popular thing to their man for what ever reason, and then act like others are being pety for saying 'Nah that's not how it is'. Maybe he put wooden coasters on the radar. Maybe he said 'You should ride this'. Maybe. I've no doubt he had some involvement, but I think declaring him the person who signed off on it and the mastermind of the whole thing just seems revisionist. Realistically though, you've got to question how much sway he would have had, given he was sent off to China to languish around the same time as the contracts would have been being signed. Anyway, that's the end of the discussion who signed off on it. Further comments on the matter will be deleted.

All the HUSS Rides from the park (including the breakdance) are getting scrapped, so unfortunately everything that can be will be sold off, and the rest sent to the scrap yard.

This is how the news will say it “the new ride built on the site of the thunder river rapids ride where 4 people died 6 years ago” it kinda predictable
