Claw, Shockwave and Tailspin? 

HWSW is in Ocean Parade. 

Oh right, I forgot they had removed the supercar area from the map and added HWSW back to Ocean parade

A consistent and cohesive theme.

No need for passive aggressiveness.

Actually that's a good point. I'd be happy with the removal of the violent and unrideable (for me) HWSW and replacement with something actually rideable and on theme.

I guess its no secret by now that someone here works for Dreamworld. (And the Magician's post, and recent SkyVoyager video update discussions kind of makes that clear, so this isn't an attempt at doxxing), but it just made me laugh about how 'pro VRTP' Parkz was accused to be just a few years ago, and now the positive news stories and other discussions just amuses me...

This editorial comes across that Parkz is receiving something in return to advertise for it.   I have had 6 members from Parkz ask me in a roundabout way if Parkz is now owned by Village.   A funny member also sent me this.

 

 (This is not to be disrespectful but what people are saying)

Is this the direction Parkz is going?

As for Ocean Parade, before Dreamworld builds anything else in OP, they need to balance the park out with attractions a little more spread out, and fix up some of the mess, and hodge podge that exists both in OP and elsewhere.

OP needs a better anchor attraction than HWSW, but i'm not necessarily calling for removal of HWSW either. Its really hard to say what DW needs as there's a lot of mismanagement, empty holes left from previously removed rides that haven't been adequately filled, and a lot of rides poorly placed that are not financially viable to relocate to fix the problem, meaning DW is stuck with that placement for quite some time.

- Tailspin has audio of planes playing now

- Giant Drop has an additional queue sign above the staircase 

- Fencing has been put up at the path under Giant Drop

- Fully Six has also had fencing put up to create a queue

For the enjoyment of those who don’t want to give me precious clicks.

 

When Tailspin originally opened it did have the plane audio, never realised it had stopped 

When they installed the Ill fated Dreamworld tv system, (which does it even operate anymore as intended) they removed the sound effects as the tv in the queue line took over the speakers for its audio output. It’s good to see this little feature return. 

Does anyone know if that wave mural next to Fully 6 has always been there? This area of the park was one that I never ventured into (and honestly was probably one of the best spots, especially for the toilets).

You are a prick. 

When I went past DW this morning fully 6 appeared to be doing testing/filming, with people on the slides.

The mural has only recently been painted.

Welcome to "I won't look for myself so they have to make it difficult to stop me being run over by a train abomination"

Take the warning labels off hair dryers I say!

Thankyou for noticing!

They have boom gates \ proper "ding ding lights" over by billabong. Walking through a rat trap with no ACTUAL barrier to stop morons is pointless. I think state railway authorities around the country have shown the most suitable level crossing barriers, which (it has to be said) would actually fit the fucking theme

It doesn't look like gates and bells are going in, no footings in sight.

Some "Look for Trains" signs should be sufficient, there are plenty of passive warned crossings around outside the Brisbane Metro area.

I think (don't quote me though) that the Dreamworld Railway is somehow classified as an amusement ride vs a railway, so their requirements are different to a railway.

Considering you could out crawl that tractor, the chance of someone not noticing it AND the driver not noticing the patron on the tracks, is super low.
I guess we've got to account for every idiot with only 3 brain cells these days

Bloody hell that crossing looks awful. It's one of those things that just makes you go 'Why?'

While I think it’s fantastic they’ve finally built this new path for easier flow, that fencing is very poor and will cause bottlenecks to occur if two families try to cross paths

Just like the gates at Main Street. It’s a poorly conceived idea. That said this is the 3rd installation of this type of crossing gate now at the park, so they seem to be the flavour of the month (or years).

Its an ok idea for a low traffic path, but high traffic..

Wonder if we will ever see the steam train return...

The pathway across the train line is open to guests, but surprisingly there’s no signage or lights to warn guests
