Megan has posted our Alice Springs day. http://pirouettes.org/?p=1170

Big Red Car is awesome!

If the Premier Rides rumour takes place, I will be more than happy to spend twenty-two hours in a cramped economy class seat in order to get the credit. I'm not holding my breath though. Personally I'd expect to see two B&Ms, a Rocky Mountain woodie, and an Morgan Gigacoaster installed at Wonderland in Melbourne before Orphan Rocker opens.

Eh, I think it's fair to say that at least some of the structure has had it! http://www.bannister.org/coasters/trips/2015/0213.htm#scenic_world

Yes.

Really? I've ridden quite a few and have yet to find one that didn't hurt... http://www.bannister.org/coasters/parks/sp_80std.htm

It prints to fifty-eight pages. Do they make frames that big?

Megan has finally posted the first few days of our trip to Australia, including a very lengthy 7200-word report from Adventure World. Check it out – http://www.pirouettes.org/

Vogel Rok has a brilliant on-board sound track. AFAIK it's a customer option from Vekoma.

Physically it's roughly double the size of Luna Park Sydney – though the rides are more spaced out. Something like one quarter of the land is occupied by the Kart track. Both parks are clearly visible on Google Earth so you can get a good idea from there.

For what it's worth, I think the new trains on Arkham are a massive improvement. I'll take sore legs over a migraine any day.

...and my last two reports are done: http://www.bannister.org/coasters/trips/2015/0220.htm http://www.bannister.org/coasters/trips/2015/0221.htm Thanks again to everyone who helped with our trip.

Yes. If it helps, I recently had some VHS tapes professionally digitised. It wasn't cheap but they managed to get far better results than I was achieving using my own gear.

That would be absolutely fantastic. I've always wanted to see what Eureka actually looked like...

Inverted Log Flume. You read it here first.

What the hell?

I think that may depend on your sexual orientation...

I just spat coffee all over my desk!

Ginger Factory is done... http://www.bannister.org/coasters/trips/2015/0219.htm ...and that's the end of Australia. Last two trip reports from this trip are from New Zealand, when I get around to writing them.

No – we were going to but bailed due to weather.

Sea World is done: http://www.bannister.org/coasters/trips/2015/0218.htm

Warner Brothers is, if anything, smaller.

Dreamworld is done: http://www.bannister.org/coasters/trips/2015/0217.htm

...the operations might actually be worse than on the Gold Coast! http://www.smh.com.au/business/village-roadshow-chinas-citic-form-500-million-theme-park-fund-20150323-1m5itv.html

I've got to agree with joz on Storm – I thought it was fairly poor really considering what it was trying to do. On the other hand, I love Jet Rescue.
