Yes Mark, most of us are aware that it is not doing Sydney, thanks for the input. :? Most people who read this forum will know that this ride is a particular favourite of one particular member, but it is also a favourite of mine and I know a few other people that enjoy it as well, so I for one am very sorry that Rainbow will not be at Sydney this year. :(

So does that mean it's getting Scrapped if it's off to Simsmetal?

If it actually is going there, I don't imagine it would be to prep it for capitals

Er... sold off for scap metal... thats ridiculous... there are many aussie showmen who want the Rainbow.

I think its crazy how Rainbow won't be there this year. There must be more to this story... especially up until 2 days ago... it was still on the list and ready.

That's right, Rainbow would probably pull as many people at RES as the Space Roller. And Watkin's travel around the Roler on 3 trailers and the Rainbow is for everyone-thrillseekers, families, younger kids. Whereas Space Roller is more for thrills and spills and is more Xtreme and not family friendly. From the stories I've heard in the last few weeks, I never would've thought this would happen. I heard it would be doing more shows possibly

Also for the ride to be sold for scrap metal, there must have been a huge problem with the ride and would've cost alot of money to fix the problem. But I haven't heard of any problems with the ride. So this is very strange and weird that I can't really believe at this stage. I can believe that it's off Sydney show but WHY?????? And Ali Baba taking its place, at least replace the Rainbow such a great ride with yet another great ride not the Ali Baba which is more for regionals, not capitals IMO.

This might have nothing to do with the ride itself, could be a very different reasons for this happening.

Is there some reason that people want to be aggressive regarding this, cause I have had just about had enough of stupid childish behaviour, we do not know what reason that Rainbow has been pulled from Sydney, there has been rumours that it has been sold, please do not use it to attack other people, you all sound just like my kids. :twisted: :evil: :?:

I just hope the ride is not off to the scrap yard. I won't be at the RES myself, but I know a lot of people will miss it.

There would have to be a very good reason why Rainbow isn't going to RES. And on another note I can't find SPEED anywhere on the RES site either.

Yes. I was looking for Speed too. Man, come to think of it this years ride list does not seem complete to me....is anyone else feeling that too?

Speed was never up on the website I don't think. Just like Thunderbolt, Ranger etc not being up there

No Thunderbolt or Ranger? Maybe the website is totally stuffed up, or something else is up? Next we will not be able to find the Zipper listed! I'm just confused now.

I've been told that the RES just don't have photos of these rides, that's why they aren't listed.
