How do I award this?

Just BMX bikes

So this evening was the first time in two years that I got the chance to head down to Luna Park again, and I was able to observe the renovations myself. Of course I managed to get an overview of Maloney's Corner from the office balcony; work on Boomerang seems more or less the same as Baconjack's photos, Little Nipper seems all but complete as does the Whirly Bug (I refuse to call it "Bug" out of principle. Sue me). I did notice that the Rockin' Tug still seems to be at the park which I found interesting. The Big Dipper platform has become a space for storing tracks for the Boomerang. Work has not yet begun on renovating the dodgem building exterior. A ground view of Maloney's corner shows everything's continuing at a reasonable pace. A view of the Little Nipper and Whirly Bug all set up awaiting more theming but if you look upon close... A shark body is just sticking out behind the work fencing. This could either be the coaster carriage for the ride, or it's a new "bridge" for the ride entrance. I really hope it's the latter; Luna Park is in desperate need for some decent bridges like the days of old. Lavender green is blocked off from view but is being used as storage for more Boomerang tracks and other equipment. A distance view of the work so far. So having finally seen the renovations in person now, I must say I'm pretty pleased with what's going on. I just hope these reno works extend to the rest of the park, cause it looks like it could do a with a massive repaint in many areas and given a consistent theming throughout. Particularly at the entrance around the carousel and The Deck.

For those wondering if the steam train is still at the park or not... yes it is (to the left of the blue maintenance vehicle) And, why don’t DW open up these stairs to access the Giant Drop? Because of the construction you can access the usual stairs at the entrance to the ride. So you need to head up the spaghetti ramps, but why not keep these stairs open for access too?

I’ve just been. They are pretty busy. Some reasonable queues for more rides and a lot of people everywhere in the park They have also removed the wall that was under the waterfall in Corroboree, so visually it looks much better. But none of the attractions are open behind it.

Vertical construction on Boomerang has started and Bug looks basically complete

I'm terrified to see what the Ekka will be in 5-10 years time with the continued developments that keep popping up in the RNA

I dont think that the RES is devoid of atmosphere.I visited today and had an awesome time- there was plenty of atmosphere from my perspective.

That doesn’t clear anything up, there is nothing to clear up. without the “tower of terror” ride, the “tower” wouldn’t exist.

Went today. Just sharing 2 pics. Nothing much changed. Been a while since I’ve been. Changed a lot

Let's gooooo Vekoma Madhouse.

Still holding out for the "temporary" showbag tent to be removed so we have a proper sideshow alley.
