    Wasn't this the case as Surfrider too, closed more than open?

    The video showed that claw being from the original Claw ride.
  3. red dragin
    Of course 🤦

    Can the train climb the hill in the other direction? I thought it has always run this direction since Steel Taipan shortened the circuit.

    Full circuit same direction Credit GCThemeParkGirl https://www.facebook.com/share/v/1GGw8Ddveh/

    QR can replace sections of track, points etc in a weekend and have it certified for 100kmhr+ running for Monday morning. That short closure will be more than enough for an amusement ride for a few test laps and training (it's not classed as a railway, doesn't fall under the National Rail Safety Regulators powers).

    Would they perhaps limit the house mates outdoor access to after park hours?

    Induced demand - plenty of research out there to support it.

    The mills have their own navvy teams, who keep everything running during cutting season, then do heavy maintenance during the off season (bridges etc). Cross River Rail plus general QR maintenance is pretty much constant too, some massive works coming up around Christmas. So labour is stretched and also probably out of the parks budget with the current demands elsewhere.

    Good to see Greg et al have learnt from DC Rivals, where they were basically in denial of its existence until the world's biggest lapel mic came out.

    Train 1 - station Train 2 - maintenance bay Train 3 - on ground outside maintenance bay Remove train 2 via maintenance bay (would require extra set of whatever it goes onto to be removed). Then place train 3 back in its place. So briefly there is a single train on tracks. Wouldn't require an extra block.

    With a third train, you could have one off track in a maintenance shed, with the other two in operation. At night, store one in the station, one in the maintenance bay like they currently do. Swap the rebuilt one out for the highest mileage train every four months. That wouldn't require extra block sections etc. But, that won't happen, as we know. Operations are slow enough that it'll make little difference to throughput if one or two trains where on track.

    Send the park an email, they're currently seeking guest feedback and I'm sure they'd welcome this.
  14. red dragin
    And that's a low bar to begin with

    Random thought - I think most of us scoffed a little when we found out that the additional bracing into the car park on DC Rivals was necessary for Cyclone rating, to get approval, but here we are.
