djsuperslueth, I refer to you comment : "Interesting to note the guy that heads AMF for Macqaurie Leisure was responsible for managing the construction of WWW. Looks like he has a project to run there again." Please, please, please do not display your ignorance again.

Alex B - it's also dismaying to note your ignorance of Dreamworld's capital acquisition process. The decision to purchase a new ride does not come down to "a 55 year old engineer." The decision to purchase a new ride is an incredibly long, complex and drawn out processs. It involves many, many people at various levels of seniority within Dreamworld and Macquarie Leisure. Furthermore, the decision is primarily market driven towards meeting the needs / expectations of the very demographic you describe (ie, 7-40 years). A purely personal preference of one person plays no part in such a multi-million dollar decision. Sorry if I seem abrupt - I just can't let such inaccuracies fester on this thread.

People - the Mine Ride has closed permanently. Power to the control panel and electrics have been disconnected (except for the fire detection systems which remain active). It will not be rebuilt or resurrected in any way. I'm not sure if this can be expressed any clearer.
