What is your favourite and worst ride of all time?

So I should be cautious if ever asked if I want to go to the Ekka and "Milk crate and chill" -

Lazy river is a great idea and echo what the others say about making it interesting and possibly a transport option. Just don't do what WnW Sydney does and have it so you can cut off parts of it to save on staff, especially when the bits they cut off look to be more fun that what's open. -
You sound like a monorail salesperson push.

Never rode Ghostrider before the work but will be riding it in May. Based on what I have seen through photos and videos they have put a lot of work into fixing the problems with it. Got a feeling the two RMC in California will push our rides down my list in terms of favourites. -

Current list Faves - Superman and the Wild Mice (either Sydney or Aussie World), honourable mentions to Scooby and Lantern. Hated - Mopedcoaster, due to roughness Scenic Railway gets a dishonourable mention. Sure this will change after June. -
I'm sure there are some people on here who have been inside the train maintenance shed. Would take a guess and say it would be similar to any normal workshop as far as setup goes. Only real difference is trains (now train and tractor ) instead of cars or trucks.

Silly little things that should be fixed
pin142 replied to pushbutton's topic in Theme Park Discussion
Noticed that WWW has had sprinklers and soaker hoses along the paths over summer to help this All parks: Make the queue jump system line also a single rider or add a single rider. Would save the time and effort required calling for a single then waiting on them to make their way through the queue. -

You can't really put it anywhere else on that side of the park easily. As a temporary measure I have no issue with it being where it is. Sure that side of the park is getting crowded but given the distance from the existing Tiger Island and vet facilities putting something in somewhere like the old Blue Lagoon area would make it quite the trek to get the tigers on display there and it isn't exactly the easiest place to get to and from quickly should something happen. -

If they are closing off tiger island for refurbishment where are they going to display the cubs for public viewing? What's to say they aren't touching the lair. Given the only place they put the cubs up for display is a quarantined area away from the other tigers (for health reasons) that will be blocked from public access the idea of a standalone viewing area whilst the work happens in a area somewhat nearby isn't that bad even if it isn't exactly next to the Island area. -

If it was a coaster I would be saying the park would have announced a coaster and not a new ride. -

Between tailspin and the surf shop is where it is going, where stingray used to be. -
If you are wanting to take a steam train ride outside the first Saturday of month word is tomorrow will be a good day to do it.

Better than the alternative of no train.

Look to be adding a more permanent viewing area in Ocean Parade. Glass walls with the game site side of the area having a frame for a wall up. -
Currently doing laps around Dreamworld.

Not the only one expecting this response joz. Looking forward to seeing how they take a ride and adding their own touch to it like they have done with other additions. -
Do you ever foresee a theme park closing down?
pin142 replied to POP's topic in Theme Park Discussion
Normally before closing down there is no investment in the park and when they finally do close they blame every excuse under the sun claiming it isn't their fault as to why the place closed. The way things are going with the parks at the moment I can't really see any of the majors closing. People are quick to jump at Dreamworld being the most under threat from Wanda but I think they could do something quickly in response to the threat or even go as far as to try and get people away with their unique attractions. I doubt at Wanda park would have tigers. -

Wonder if it is where they will be displaying their new white tiger cubs that recently arrived. Seems the most logical reason for the placement and why the quarantine signs. -

It is even listed on the fire map for the building in the queue line. Goes to show why remove something when you don't have to and it can be re-purposed after. -

My Zoolander idea has more chance of happening than a coaster this year. When you have a well known coaster site posting 2017 I am going with them until I hear something from the park itself. -
Loop it around a monorail between the park and the resort and you may be onto a winner there!
