Not sure on the name, or why they've gone with the artwork of the ride going backwards, unless it does of course!

I think that may have been more a decision to showcase both the ride & station in the artwork potentially...

‘A few new effects’ that makes me happy.

It looks like the track is blue. So they might actually repaint the track

Or a jetwash

Or a jetwash

They are going to do it whilst people are riding round. It's one of the new features.

This reminds me of the Year 2000 again when:
Apocalypse, Golden Nuggets and Popeye show opened.
Now with the shockwave new trains and theme, Terence reopening in its former area, New 4D movie and a new area with re themed attractions that would have been a extra new addition for the 2024 under the Bryan’s on top of a new coaster.

That looks so nice! Love the Shockwave station colour scheme and honestly just the whole of Adventure Cove in general.

I would of thought they would have at least jet washed the track to go with the new name and theming

Theres a photo of the ride train on the Draytontalk Instagram if anyone wanted to see:

Agreed - we are hoping that the track will get a clean Its in desperate need.

 

[Monkeybayou]

I’d be surprised if they opened a ride as if it were new whilst showing an accumulation of years of muck.

Some of the supports by Air race is in should a bad state you can see the original Brown track. It must have been 20 years ago when they started to paint the track and never finished the lift hill.
