@AlexBI think they are close together because they will support the screen behind the water tank. I think they are going to place the tilt-up slab against the post to screen TopGolf from the water tank. I also think a net will connect to it later. Skeet is walking on the path from the front car park to TopGolf This is being built now so Village Studios can continue to film movies with the water tank while TopGolf is constructed.

I had a total mind spew on what the comms conduit would be for. Having cameras makes perfect sense.

@bladex Pace yourself, don't get excited we could have 5 weeks of this.

@joz I'm laughing on the outside.

LOL I'm not that smart to think of asking @Theme Park Girl

Thank you @themagician Your photos show a lot more going on than just powering the fence. The white conduit in the trench is a communication conduit and never used for power. The small orange conduit laying on top of the two large conduits in the trench is the conduit for the fence. One of the large orange conduits might be for the fence too but not both.

Never. Even if that does happen they wouldn't do that for 5 days straight.

@Theme Park GirlAre you saying DW now test its rides on human passengers?

Sorry the Queen was too busy getting her photo taken to ride.

I can make another one if you like?

No newspaper @Slick but does the Cherri picker working on hot wheels suffice?

RCDB opening date only updated once it was splashed over the internet. Just maybe RCDB have no information and are not willing to go out on a limb to call it.

Care to share?

What's strange is it's going down for maintenance on Monday. For as long as I can remember the Wipeout has gone down at the end of the year. It has to be close to 4 weeks since the last ride came online and if this was the last one why haven't they already striped it down? Every time I've been to DW this year I have seen engineers working on it. The question needs to be asked was the ride in that bad of a state?

I just came back from Brisbane and did a quick drive-by. Electrical now being roughed in. A trench now follows inside of the fence line from GL all the to the site sheds. It's a no brainer this will be to power the fence lights. Pop question. If the lights on the fence are finished within the next few weeks do you turn them on before the coaster opens? Next question is: Will the lights be green matching the current GL fence lights or will they be a different colour to match the new coaster? I still don't know if the electrical roughing in has anything to do with the JL & BW being shut. If the power is coming from that area and we now have electricians on site it could be the case. If they are roughing in the ride as well as the fence it could be a little while longer before they are ready to receive the track.

@AlexB I can't remember it being kept in Perspex but I am always wrong. Don't give the people the wrong idea though when you say scale model. I recall the scale model was the size of a car. When we talk about movie props incorporated into a ride lets us all remember Lethal Weapon. Lethal Weapon the ride had props from the movie.

Didn't Mayor Tate want to sink the fake ship as a dive site? That was to he was told it was made out of MDF and was only half a boat. The boat would fall apart in days and bits would have been found at P. Sherman, 42 Wallaby Way, Sydney I'm don't think old sets would work. In saying that MW had the Ghostship model on display outside for the old tour and that one seemed to last. Ghostship was filmed at the studios had one of the best opening scenes.

First thing you learn in Roller Coaster Tycoon. How to extend a ride life.

Doesn't WWW already have heated pools? “The financial savings over the existing gas boiler system are phenomenal" I've been in winter and the water was warm. I think WWW is replacing the current system with a better system. WWW website FAQ Is it too cold to come in winter? WhiteWater World's rides, slides and pools are heated during winter. Wind structures have been included on all ride queues providing extra comfort for guests

Which means @MaxxTheMonster got the same as me. We don't know what ship it is on. A Chinese ship could load up in Germany, unload what it has too in China. Load up again in China and travel to Australia to unload. All along caring the coaster it picked up at the start. The coaster could also travel across Europe via trucks before being shipped to Australia from another country. In theory, you could even truck it from Germany to China but this would not be likely. We also have the possibility that the coaster is not being manufactured in Germany.

My conclusion is it was a waste of an hour I will never get back.

Spot on @AllegroCrab The plane told me to do it.

How funny is that. I did the same thing.

I think the list will change around. If you go by the list GL will never close during construction of "Wonder Woman". aka Hyper.

I think you will find this is not a ground slab but is a stack of tilt-up-walls being constructed on site. The tilt-up panels are retaining walls. Just over 9000 cubic metres of soil will be imported to raise and level the site. In trucking terms 900 loads of soil will be imported if using truck shown. Sadly your kids will not be required here @Theme Park Girl
