OMG. I hate it when they go to the expense of lighting a building and then it gets put on the default "cycling through the rainbow" mode. In particular, going past this one at Helensvale.

Was there a max width for the letters so it wouldn't be too far off the surface of the tower?

Here's a newly opened launched Gerstlauer family shuttle at Bayern Park. It has a double switch track so you do the layout in both directions. Would fill the gap well between Dragon Express and Abyss IMO. -

Can the skyway be an open loop like the one at Kolmarden? -
Top Thrill Dragster at Cedar Point "Closing"
Gazza replied to Coasterjoe's topic in Theme Park Discussion
If I had to guess it's because there's not as much land for the big vertical spike structure if you build it any closer. Out the back there is more space. -
How much capacity is currently available?

Does JL still have those grey ARGUS military type uniforms?

Or LSMs to speed it over the top to give ejector air. -
There used to be the single colour button up cotton shirts at WnW and MW that had "Warner Village Theme Parks" embroided on them, so maybe thats what they were recalling? That was the same era as sea world having the white polos with blue collars.

Pretty much with Ohio you need a hire car. I waited till I was 25 and old enough to rent without excessive young driver fees. Once you are actually in the US, getting to ohio is no problem. Plenty of domestic flights to secondary cities, where you can commence your road trip from. -
Top Thrill Dragster at Cedar Point "Closing"
Gazza replied to Coasterjoe's topic in Theme Park Discussion
Could they do something where it is a slow reverse cable lift like Deja Vu had, release down that drop, add some more speed on the launch with LSMs, and then finally over the top hat? -
I think the reason you might choose to do it this way is to avoid an obvious chamber with a switch track at the bottom of the drop. You can fully theme the entry and exit tunnels (presuming it has them) and then the room with the inclined turntable can be one big impressive space. Could also allow some more flexibility in the design, eg the entry and exit points can have more curved track on the leadup.

What if you are in the station and are sitting around for ages. I've experienced that too in some places. Or worse still waiting for a minimum number of guests to cycle. -
Rampage is Retiring at Adventure World
Gazza replied to themagician's topic in Theme Park Discussion
I think the reason they recycled the bounty ship is because it fits in with the theme of the nautical area by itself. But the rampage gondola doesnt really fit in with a theme, it will still look like part of a ride. ***** I agree that an intermediate family coaster is what the park needs to round it out. Would have said a family shuttle but everyone has these now right? -
Oh so the fact it was a one and done for me was just because its legitimately more intense than the others?

When surfrider was originally built it literally did go up in a matter of days, so it very well could pop up quite fast.- 406 replies

Does AW need 2 coasters with "steeper than vertical drops" and small cars? What about a more different type of ride? -

New Kids Ride at Movie World - April 2023

It looks like it does have different colours though? -
Where else would it go? Its a new attraction 😊

Yes, this is how we prefer people post. It could have been something significant.

Could it be the drop ride in their previous master plan and council submission?
