Yeah I agree. The yellow/gold colour would have been better on the track as I find the purple a bit dark. Nice colours, they should just be the other way round.

Fresh pictures anyone?

uh oh! diogo won't be happy, looks like we'll have to jump to touch them

I sense many a picture oppourtunity!

I realllly hope the purple fades a bit. Just seems too dark, although I do like the sandy yellow footers. Im also hoping for some sort of sign saying this sculpture uses the original track from the world famous Corkscrew rollercoaster or something along those lines.

I know you just posted pics, but I might aswell show mine!

Still some track left in the car park (thats me!)





You can see here how tall the corkscrews are.



just about to enter the plaza from the side


and in the actual plaza







Just might add! the cable car was testing so I'm assuming the've finished the station?


Also, the staff didn't seem to mind we where there... I even had a chat with one of the security staff. She didn't seem to even know the 13 weekend was cancelled and was waiting for everyone to arrive! (she did seem a bit out of it though )

Hope you liked the pics! I do advise anyone to go have a look. If they let you in it's great too see them working on the 'screws.

(All photos taken by me on the 13th March)

Are those the original supports, or new ones? I could have sworn it used A-frames.

Original Supports:



They might be the same, not sure though.

They are really looking pretty good in their new home. Big fan of the purple chosen.

Of course, the 'screws were the only part that did use tubular supports.
Cheers!

Might stand under it in a Harchester shirt.

Do you think they'll be adding any more at the coach park end? It seems like it ends a bit abruptly there, but doesnt "look" like it'll be carrying on (ie. no supports).

Also, is there really a stray short support this end too?

Oh my life, they look perfect! Bravo Towers!

Also that stray support is interesting, there also seems to be another further down...I wonder what they are for?

I saw them being put in place on saturday and it makes you realise how big they are!

I just had an image in my head of lots of excited kids seeing the screws from a distance going - "Is this the new ride?"
