The restraints have not released properly for years...yes the tunnel looks a mess from that view, even if they had painted the first few of them panels it would help yet the outside station looks very good. I assume the que is sort of where it was yet inside on the platform?

Yeah I think the que is inside the station
The train looks amazing
Just a bit of a shame they didn’t keep it as the Rattle Snake as it would have looked brilliant but I do like the way the hole end of the park is farm themed makes it stand out more

Potentially yet was late in the day for it... they usually arrive via helicopter and land behind MM

Station does look great, but pity they didn't carry that theme up the tunnel, just got a round, red tube sticking out of the side, and it looks awful like that, unfinished and lazy. Maybe it's not completely finished but i doubt they'll do anymore with it. They never go that that extra mile and that's the attitude that needs to change.

But i don't want to be too negative, the station does look good, they got the ride back and running which is huge, they seem to have a plan and the new GM seems to be really keen.

Looks really nice. Shame about the tunnel, but with it being red it sort of looks alright in this video.

You can see it struggled to get up as well, BUT, it looks to be running faster which is great. The Snake always used to run so mix slower than the other identical models that I've been on, but it looks to be back to normal now.

Track looks nice in that green colour as well. Still doesn't look finished yet either, I hope they continue to improve it through out the year

The Tunnel is rubbish but it's clearly not finished, it's got a whole side missing and you can see the station needs more work. to officially open it like that is a little poor.

Disagree about the speed.. .that look to be running really slow, look how to takes those corners... it's like walking through mud.

Went to the hills today. The farmyard theme down that end looks fantastic! Egg-spress was running half full though. Presumably due to the lift hill issue?

That's sad to hear. It's never been an issue before, I hope they get it sorted.
