Why would you want haze in the station That just causes issues with fire systems guest feeling asthma symptoms and reduced visibility for the staff And adds nothing to the theme -

A door can be on a ride no problem at the end of the day its no different to a switch track As long as safety rated components are used in a safety rated system design and are part of the sealed ride safety code all is perfectly fine -

Nope that lame lass name is the actual thing Great marketing spin to try and sell the fact the launch system isnt capable of the required acceleration by making it a feature These guys should work for village -

Youd think that a competent design team would have thought about the need to close this area off for maintenance and provide for an attractive way to so photo credit to some facebook post by someone -

Jesus christ! Guess AS3000 is just a fun guideline -
The park had a major ride breakdown and so they got it fixed and open for their paying guests Oh my god how embarrassing
-
Again im totally just making all this up as a theory and have no factual backing but i guess your point above is one good reason Another i recon would be to avoid leaving it till later and then some other stupid thing popping up that delays it further
-
Not really If people are not available until a certain date they arent available no matter how far in advance you reach out With literally a handful of people that do this work I think its highly likely some of the timeline is due to availability
-
Something I hadnt thought of until now is that it might not be a case of parts taking 9 months but simply that the specialised people to commission it are booked up until then A fairly plausible scenario

There is no chance of someone accidentally or mistakenly re-energising the track Zero -

Cue standard response from @DaptoFunlandGuy of things can be changed again But hes right -
None of which would be in the space they could easily be elsewhere with some effort As for it not being tall enough back in the day scooby was the gremlins ride with a 8m tall roof Buildings can be changed and that space could be reworked if anyone cared enough The entire back area behind west is just a mess of mish mash of crap which should have had a giant maintenance facility built a long time ago I cant even see why ride rebuilds need to be done onsite anyway at all The same for most of that storage taking up a perfectly good show building If they stopped hanging onto decades old rubbish equipment and junk and stopped trying to re use stuff so they can save every buck possible on their entertainment offerings they wouldnt need all that space
-
Stupidest thing they ever did moving maintenance in there They should have built a proper purpose built maintenance facility up the back of the park used the existing one for parade storage and kept the ride building as a ride
-
Would that not make more sense where they actually have an arcade building
-
And there it is exactly what is needed
-
In other words people having a carry on facebook Nothing earth shattering there
-
No

9 months does seem like a long time But if they are getting a new car that would make sense cause supply chain on that sort of thing is still messed up the world over They had a lot of complaints over making conservative announcements for leviathan and then the dates blowing out so maybe they are being cautious this time
-
Hey at least at Dreamworld fans are pointing out fonts they havent noticed and not entire coaster supports cracked in half
-
Possibly because we all like THEME parks
-
Youre entitled to your opinion but at the same time you are still wrong If you were at the invite only opening you are probably biased towards the park Only running one site is cheap and crap and people in the day would sooner look at the ocean Im sure
-
So they could only open one side for the launch night Doesnt bode well for the future Only one side operating shouldnt be the norm
