Have they ever even given it a repaint? I feel like that wording has just been fading for 20 years and was never given any love

You can see in this plan where the TOT track was and how the train line will pass under it

Yeah it’s that same guy. Flying over the bushland on the other side of sea world is fine, but I don’t think you’re allowed to fly over the park, especially during operating hours and getting close to cranes like that

More of the track has been removed and the supports have been removed too

I know we’ve had discussions in the past about possible future attractions at WnW GC, but we could possibly be seeing a new attraction coming to the Mach 5 area of H20 Zone in the near future (yet to be officially confirmed). What kind of attraction do people want to see in this area of the park? The area is about 140 metres long and 70 metres wide.

I’d love to see how the parks are effected inside. We know how badly it floods outside MW and WNW, but is it just as bad inside?

@Gazza nope

That makes me an idiot then

I love it when the parks schedule posts and don’t think to possibly change it Especially when they go and post this

While that idea was possible a couple years ago, that definitely won’t be happening anymore

From when I’ve been to the park, from what I can see, the red shows the areas of track currently removed. And based off to site plans, the blue is the new proposed connection for the track. It appears that the left red track will be no more, therefore the loop behind blue lagoon is no more. Based off this, the train will be kept in its current position for quite some time until they build a new maintenance/storage shed and it won’t be operating again until the new track is installed. I doubt we will be seeing the train in operation until the end of the year. That also means the Rocky Hollow station will be no more and they have all this land for future attractions

@Naazon that’s actually a very good point. Maybe he can go on the Hall of Justice then

Since they have removed the top of the Batwing during its current maintenance, could there be a possibility so a mounting point is being added to the tower of the tower for Batman to be fixed too?

That’s very true. I guess looking back at how the train used to operate and even how SW operated theirs, it was continuously running. For DW, if they were to continuously run it, then I can see them only operating it 11-4 (as an example) on weekdays. If they are changing the trains route to cut out the area behind Blue Lagoon, then I think they should ask spend some money/time in other areas that are seen from the train as you make your way around the park. For example, behind ABC Kids World and alongside TOT entry is an eyesore, and something should be done to bring some life to that area.

@joz I get your point with the monorail, but generally you can see it wherever you are in the park, particularly if you are up at one of the stations. With the train, you can’t see it, you can only hear it if the driver pulls the horn. Maybe in peak periods the train has the need to be continuously run and only stops at each station for a few minutes at a time. But during those off periods, I think every 30 minutes is sufficient

I wonder if they’ve now removed those sections of track to allow for the re-routing of the train line? If that’s the case, that means the Rocky hollow station might be no more. Leaving Main Street station, Billabong station and Corroboree station. If we do loose rocky hollow station, I don’t think it’s a major loss because it’s pretty close to Main Street station anyways

I wish they’d bring back Road Runner and Coyote riding on the front and back of the train. Does anyone know why they ever removed them?

And they look better then the single bar for both people; which didn’t even reach a child’s legs if an adult was with them

Omg they’re building these very quickly

I think the Dreamworks area is one of the best themed areas in the park, so loosing it would be a real shame. Will the movies were released quite a few years ago now, I think they’re still relevant. If they do renew the contract, they should definitely change the stage show. If they don’t renew it, I see the area just getting a generic theme overall. They’ll remove any Dreamworks references, but everything will remain the same

I don’t think we will see any major investments (like Steel Taipan) for a while, but I expect we will see the refurb of ABC Kids World. Eventually they’ll have a replacement attraction for the log ride and they’ll void behind TailSpin. We also may see some investments into Corroboree once international tourism begins to arrive once again. The real main thing I want them to do is keeping making those minor improvements and keep on top of making the park looking good. I don’t want the park to return to how it was late 2000s early 2010s. There are certainly some focus areas right now that could help the parks overall appearance.

With the event over for 2021, what was everyone’s overall thoughts? Good? Bad? Better than previous years? Needs improving? What can they do next?
