SX360 and Dingo racer photos from the top of the Ferris wheel. They are running SX360 on 2 different cycles at the moment - 11.30am to 1.30pm on cycle 1 (1 full rotation), then 1.30pm to 3pm on cycle 4 (3 full rotations, maybe 4 if you get lucky).
Staff are about to start training on Dingo racer, hoping for an opening during school holidays early January (info came from a senior ride attendant)

It currently has a Vekoma train but the ride is Arrow. It's one of the final few Arrow Custom Loopers built.
Speaking of the trains, when I was there a couple of weeks ago, there was only 2 people on the ride. Last time they had a minimum of 6 to send the train for weight reasons.
When I asked, they said since Gold Coaster, the wheels and running gear was updated, so it now goes slightly faster, meaning it no longer has a minimum. I can say it is faster, can also say it rattles the brain harder than before 😁

The fence at the entrance path now has some cladding on it.

When they were first testing DC Rivals, a horn sounded before each run. I wonder if this will be the case for Steel Taipan?
Not that I heard during the launches that they did

Dreamworld Maintenance 2023
in Theme Park Discussion

Wasn't sure where to post this, but I noticed on my last visit to Dreamworld that the exit path material has been changed on Steel Taipan, from the "timber look" decking to a generic black plastic one. I suspect it is due to the fact the old one was slippery while wet, and this one drains the water away better.
