Did you look in the station. I saw a Mine Cart and dummies in there on Tuesday but is is only visible while riding the Thunder River Rapids.

Giant Drop

If you want to ride the other slides you can join a group of 2. I got that on Xbox Live Arcade. Hopefully it's still working on Friday.

Removal of the old queue line and dock from the Captain Sturt.

It looks like Rivertown is getting some much needed attention... ...current river condition... Train closed at the moment No Cyclone photos Simpsons Arcade is now working Big 8 Thrill Rides Postcards. I thought it was Big 9? Little Puff is now next to the fire station

I got bored with Big Brother in 2003. It needs to go away so Dreamworld can build some much needed coasters and other well themed rides, insted of boring spinning rides.

Blue Lagoon won't get a much needed makeover until Big Brother gets axed. You can't build a roller-coaster there while Big Brother is airing - it will make too much noise. I'm aware Blue Lagoon operated while Big Brother was on as I did have my first job at Blue Lagoon's Fat Fish (I got to take food to a secret kitchen in the house but it was after the season finished). Blue Lagoon was a lot quieter that a coaster would be. I do agree about what's been said. You can build a whole new world down there with a few awesome rollercoasters, even darks rides and much more. There is tons of land, it can be bigger than Blue Lagoon, and they should add a train station to make it easier to access. Best if they put the stream train back as it's faster and more efficient (and a real train!).

They could move the redline attraction to the old pass centre in Rivertown and update it so it doesn't have PS2 graphics. Then Rivertown could be rethemed to a racing theme. Redline is out of place in Ocean Parade...

Only 10 people are required for Cyclone.

I don't remember any pirate shows at Dreamworld. I'm sure before Tiger Island it was just bush. There was a pirate show at Sea World called "Pirates of Paradise"... Dreamworld did have a bush ranger show on the paddle boat ride. The show was performed near where the sheep shearing show now is but was only watchable on the boat.

There was a green skeleton that you used to think you're going to go through but then you turned sharply.

You should post that on the Dreamworld facebook page. Next year Gold Rush Country turns 30 so it would be a great time to referb the Mine Ride. There is a lot of people wanting a new Mine Ride. Last year when Dreamworld posted about the new Tailspin a lot of comments said "We want the Mine Ride". If they replace it the park will be less run down and have a better variety of rides. Could the Mine Ride become the Big 10th Thrill Ride?..... ...But Dreamworld do use the Mine Ride for storage so they may be just stored there.

I always use the emergency steps on the Cyclone, much quicker, I also go back down that way.

Cyclone puts me to sleep, I think it's next to go. I much prefer Arkham Asylum which is currently the oldest coaster on the coast. Also the harness seems like it can easily get undone. It takes your picture but "Cyclone Ride Photos are Unavailable". If it was to close waterslides will replace it, Dreamworld would need to build a better coaster elsewhere in the park - they most likely will stick it in a location that it doesn't fit into destroying the layout of the whole area like what happened with Motorcoaster.

I did. I wonder if that Thins packet is the same one from before... (Photo from November 2014)

QUICK DREAMWORLD PARK UPDATE The river is getting very gross again especially near the restaurant... I tried the new pizza place for the first time. This is what you get for just under $20... The pizza was bigger than I expected but didn't taste that great. The Reef Diver is still sitting on the old Thunderbolt site

It seems Dreamworld are making some great improvements with off peak ride hours. They currently are - Big Red Boat - 10am - 4pm (also on weekends) Big Red Car - 10am - 4pm (also on weekends) Cyclone - 10am - 5pm Giant Drop - 10am - 5pm Log Ride 10am - 5pm Motocoaster - 11.30am - 5pm (also on weekends) Shockwave - 10am - 5pm Tea Cups - 10am - 4pm (also on weekends) Thunder River Rapids - 12pm - 4pm (also on weekends) Vintage Cars - 12pm - 4pm (also on weekends) Wipeout - 10am - 5pm Thunder River Rapids is one of the best rides in the park and should not be only open for 4 hours. The only reason should be if they were fixing the Mine Ride and want to keep the Rapid Ride open.

If you want to ride Gingy's Gliders on the weekend or school holidays it will open at 10am - but sadly the ride will also close at 10am, we do apologise.... Also on weekends and school holidays the Giant Drop will open at 9am! But be quick as we will close it at 10am.

Vintage cars are open from 12am to 4pm now... check the website if you don't believe me.

With the Mine Ride can't they just create a new Mine Ride with the same track layout, rebuild the track, new ride system, new theming and fix the mountain? In March the chairlift has been abandoned for 10 years! You think it would have been removed / replaced by now... Next year is Blue Lagoon and Mine Ride have been abandoned for 10 years - unless they do something about it....

This year Dreamworld really should do something about the abandoned attractions. It is coming up to 10 years since Blue Lagoon nand the Chair lift closed and they continue to rot in the park. The Mine Ride closed 9 years ago this year and looking at a recent post there is a huge demand to bring it back, just look at the Tailspin page on Dreamworld s website on the Facebook comments.

I think it's ok at Wet n Wild, it's a ride you can dry off on.

If the Cyclone was to be removed the space most likely would be replaced with new slides / WWW attractions. They will have to build a new coaster elsewhere in the park soon. I do think Cyclone is the next coaster to go on the Gold Coast.

Or it could be another shipping container to put under the Storm Coaster...
