    The whole crossover between the 2 worlds is dumb.

    Murrissippi Motors is 375m. That would be my guess too. If you're read the plan how it should be read, the drawing shows the pathway is a raised pathway and the coaster track goes under the path in most cases. (my gut tells me the drawings are wrong🤷‍♂️) Track above Murrissippi Motors. Track above path near brake run. Path above track near station. Coaster track above Murrissippi Motors and below path.

    I don't believe it was running 2 trains constantly a couple of weeks after it opened. I remember they tried to run 2 trains on the first day and because of the pre-show, it was no benefit to run 2 trains. I also remember the ride was down more than open in the first few months and running 2 trains was the last thing on their minds. Thinking back to it, I remember one off the trains was inoperable for months, when the coaster first opened.

    Gosh, you are calling it early. Looking at the plans, I can't tell which side is the entry and which side is the exit to the station. If the entry is from the Murrissippi river side it looks like DW are screening the view of the backward track with the station, plus there is the unknown on how DW are going to theme the jungle.

    I know it has 2 trains but does it ever run 2 trains?

    Personally, I don't like to leave a station backwards. For your first ride, not knowing you are going to go backwards makes a ride more enjoyably. I liken it to if you turned scooby around at the start.
  7. New display name
    It would be hard to run the train the other way @themagician because you would require a brakes on either side of the station and the ride is currently only showing them on the side you enter the station.

    Jungle Rush is almost 530m approx. long in plan view, for context MotorCoaster is around 580 long in plan view. When it comes out of the wash with JR's track has many undulations, and MC is close to flat so this will have a bearing on the final track length.

    Hatched area looks to be dark part of the coaster

    Measuring wheel is the name on the tip of your tounge. I thought the most exciting thing since DCR was the village key. //s I'm a bit disappointed you're not getting us back door photos at Thorpe Park @Andrewh

    That would have been the perfect option for DW but because I believe this has been designed backwards, I don't believe it will be to the same standard. Hopefully I'm wrong.

    It was always going to have a floor over the pool but because the architect purposely left it of the drawings, shows the intent, the floor isn't the focal point. The original construction drawings differ from what has been built on site.

    Oh sorry it's missing something, this is one of the plans where DW calls it a pool. Why have a 700mm deep pool if you can't see it? You don't need a pool to be 700 deep for water fountains.🤷‍♂️ Also nowhere in the tender documents is there any information about the water fountains. That is why, I believe the water feature/fountains to be an afterthought, or should I say DW viewed theme park nutters like us asking for it. Maybe the whole floor system has changed from the original tender to accommodate the water feature and DW are no longer going with the mesh decking. But for people who don't know what I'm talking about and until DW proves me wrong (again) with a whole new floor system, this is what the floor will look like according to the tender documents. Sub-floor Mesh decking fixed to the top of the sub-floor.

    The first concept DW rushed out the door, also shows no buildings. The original Architectural drawings show it open. It's very clear, it was DW's intent for you to see the water. But as I said,
  15. New display name
    Definitely not Disney but this is DW's centrepiece.

    So, if you're worried about people falling in, you can have retractable fencing like Vortex does?
  17. New display name
    You need to share your videos.
  18. New display name
    No it is not. Vortex fence is from bad design decisions and has nothing to do with pool fencing. The depth of the water triggers if you need a pool fence or not and Vortex's doesn't require it. Mid cross rails make it a climbable fence. (non-pool fence complaint) Gap under fence makes it not a compliant pool fence. You can reach the water before reaching the fence. The flyer will also have a fence around it, to keep people out of the ride envelope.

    100% but I'm not talking about hiding the steel. The steel will be hiding the water below. People who think Flyer will be surrounded with a beautiful pond will be disappointed. The only water that will be visible, will be a small section around the globe.

    Oh boy, you have eaten desert before eating your vegetables.
  21. New display name
    Going to be very hard to see the water under your feet with all that steelworks unless they add some lights in the water. Maybe the engineer didn't get the brief that the water was to be seen.

    @STRAWS Dapto added nothing to the conversation and just and just did his standard keyboard warrior, manbaby remark. I didn't move no goal post as I addressed @ShakeShack comment and didn't say Shake was wrong. All I have done is add to the conversation. Even though more actors may have been added, DCeased still sucks, and I told @ShakeShackwhy it still sucks.
  24. New display name
    Do you care to elaborate how the goal post have been moved in this case or are you just sooking again?
  25. New display name
    No goal post have been moved. All I'm saying is adding more actors would do nothing to fix the issues. @Brad2912went the second week and he said, DCeased sucked. One person said that and everybody else disagrees with the one person, I believe.
