Dreamworld March Update

[Gold Coast Amusement Force]

This jeep showed up to replace wipeout.

Wipeout is still sitting dormant as if it’s still under maintenance. The sign also says it’s under maintenance.

The mdmc facing side of giant drop is now operating. 

And HWSW is open again looking fresher than it did previously. Possible repaints in the queue line, not sure though. Check out the new trains and a bit of the queue.

Do they now have two trains? Considering they only replaced one back in 2015?

[Thrill Seeker]

Defiantly not a new train. I think they just must of spent some time to re do it. The only thing that is different is the last bogie set used to have a metal platform across it for staff to cross the track.

Is the audio on trains for HWSW working again?

The Jeep is certainly going to get people coming back. 🤡

So they talk the best part of a year to refurbish this ride and still couldn't get the Audio to work? Amazing.

Maybe they didn't want to run the audio? 🤔😂

If you were to believe the Spin of DW's Marketing department, sure why not.

Is it really fair to expect the audio to work? That would mean employing the worlds best audio engineers who are in extremely high demand, and. ..

Oh. They could just nip down to JB Hifi and buy some speakers and plug them in.

Well, perhaps they should try the first option.

Does not need Audio, the song was so annoying anyways . If they bring it back it should run through a play list

I actually enjoyed the audio, and to be fair it is not only Dreamworld that has issue with audio on coasters

Arkham was originally due to debut with onboard audio, however didn't appear until much later and that didn't last long.

Arkham's audio has been running pretty consistently for a while, just FYI.

...as I'm a wuss and don't ride AA anymore due to the roughness, is your queue video still being played?

I am referring to the audio onboard the train, to be clear. Not the audio as part of VR. It certainly has not been functional for a long period.

AA's audio has worked as recently as December 2018. Don't know about after then but AA's audio has worked on all three of my MW visits since 2017.
