Thank you for answering my question guys

[Theme Park Girl]

I wonder what's happening with the Dreamworld stage? Hasn't really been open all that long, and they are already doing maintenance of some sort on it...

[Tim Dasco]

It looks like they have sanded the varnish of the timber. Maybe they are going to put a more better seal or outdoor weather protection onto the timber to protect it from the water maybe.

Well  when I went to DW last it did look like the stage needed some TLC or at least a better vanish and a clean at least cause there was all those black shoe skid lines on it and some of the vanish was starting to ware in some places.

 

Look on the positive side, years ago when DW built they never TLC but everything what's been built lately hasn't been rejected.

But it is main street as well you want it look the best as the its the of first things you see when you walk into the park.

Tiger Island update:

Congrats @Theme Park Girl, you made it

[Theme Park Girl]

Haha yay! About time! Been trying to get their attention for so long now. Glad they finally noticed ??

To celebrate, I am going to post another TI photo lol. Here's what it looks like from the side. You can see the tiered seating construction now

Oh btw, heads up for anyone going to Dreamworld, probably worth mentioning that there has been some apparent issues with ToTII over the weekend as it's been closed since yesterday morning. Not scheduled maintenance either! Not sure what the go is, but hopefully it will be back up and running soon. 

In the meanwhile I am sure that guests are enjoying the peace and quiet around the park ???

I am so glad that they are finally putting in seating at TI. It has been long needed

Not really. It was closed for a month last year for annual maintenance. Normal for Buzzsaw ???

I’m no painter but I would think it would be hard to match the paint without repainting the whole arm.  When some Nobby chick ran up my bum, the panel beaters also painted the closest panels to the area that was damaged. I was told it helps blend the new panels in.  Or maybe DW want to know the rust will not come back through the paint before DW do the final fix.

[Brad2912]

Nobby chick?

[New display name]

Yes her last name was Clark. 

[Theme Park Girl]

Shades are going up at TI

 

[Reanimated35]

Can someone please quote this post around 5pm to remind me to post a quick update on something. I forgot last night. 

[Theme Park Girl]

Geez lots of rides down here atm... Buzzsaw is in annual maintenance, TOTII and River Rapids are both down for unscheduled maintenance. They have vintage cars open to try and substitute. Lucky it's off peak period so hopefully they don't get too many complaints whilst they get them back up and running again ???
