It must get a heap of punters every hour. Missing out on three would be horrendous.

Thanks Josh, good photos. i hate the backwall on the Alpine Express, I liked the old artwork better than the ones now. IMO, looks like they're cartoons on there. The Pirate Ghost looks ok

It would most likely be because the Trindalls don't have ground there and would probably have to pay someone to leave there gear down so they could put it up. Also even though Cyber Party is a better ride, the Lauries would have more pull so BreakDance would get preference most likely.

ekka and other capitals arent like local shows i dont think, as far as owning ground, you just apply and the show society takes what they think is best, but i have spoken to Robert Trindal and he says they are not interested in capitals anymore

Yeah, thats basically what I had been told by Robert at Gold Coast Show. It is truly a shame though about them not wanting to do a capital. It would make a killing.
