Another support is up and there’s a fair bit of scaffolding around the ride platform. The supports for the other side were sitting around their base so if I had to guess, they’ll go up shortly too.

For the Big Red Boat, notice that the track has a bar in the middle. Does anyone else think it could be powered?
And is this supposed to be a drive wheel?
I’d say it’s likely a Mack powered coaster, I believe someone on here saw Mack staff walking around the now Dreamworks area a few weeks ago - so it would make sense.

Trident has been topped off, looks like the ride itself is nearly done.

Kaboom is currently closed until further notice
Was at WNW the other day, one of the double barrel attendants said kaboom had been closed for a few weeks because they’re waiting on parts from overseas and a rep from the manufacturer needs to come over to assist/inspect the slides. Unsure as to the specific issue but they said they’re hoping to reopen it next week at the earliest.

Even rivals??
Yep. Rivals did a few cycles after rope drop and then broke down. We left and went to Dreamworld after waiting about an hour for it to reopen but it never did so unsure as to when/if it reopened.

WWF, GL and SE all down at the moment.
Was there this morning and pretty much everything was closed except Scooby, Doomsday & Batwing and the place was packed. Lots of unhappy families.

Any further activity where the new points went in?
Didn’t look down that way today with Motocoaster being closed, sorry! They were just joining the track up about an hour ago now so it looks like it’ll be done before the end of today.

Pretty much the entire stretch of new track has been laid, they’re joining up the last of it right now down past the motocoaster launch. No more track leading into rocky hollow station and doesn’t look like a switch is being built there either.

Train is currently loaded with water dummies and on the launch track, just after the switch.

The smaller rock archway after the MCBR is looking almost completed and crews are now working on the main rock tunnel. Station work continuing and electrical work on MCBR is happening too. More pathways have been poured, particularly towards the ride exit.

I don’t think the track has been removed, but instead they’ve just put gravel over it to allow for the machinery to move down that path. And just to clarify, there is no track in that second image, the track is behind the trees to the left. I don’t think we’ll say any track modifications through here.
Ah of course, that makes perfect sense RE gravel to protect the existing track. Thanks for clarifying!

Not sure whether this has been discussed already, but a lot of the train track between Main Street station and the TOT station building has been ripped up (image source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lpk0oAvh9JA&t=1034s). At first I thought it was surely just collateral damage from TOT demolition, but in the video it's suggested that the train will be rerouted directly along the former path of the TOT launch track with Main Street Station and the Level Crossing being moved essentially alongside MDMC. I know this is purely speculation and seems unlikely due to the pure amount of effort, but the removal of that additional track seems to support the theory. I think it would make sense considering Dreamworld's recent efforts to clean up parts of the park, plus it would fill that awkward space between ST and MDMC leaving plenty of room for new path space. Regardless, if true it'd be incredibly sad to see another part of Original Dreamworld History go if the original Main Street Station is no more.

The tunnel has now been demolished pretty much up to the station building. Source: https://www.instagram.com/p/CQ4_HAgp7IB/?utm_medium=copy_link
