I think it may look OK if the rides ate the same colour in x-sector. Its quite a small area. However is oblivion going to be re-coloured to smiler colour scheme?

Oblivion's track will be painted the same colour as The Smiler's. Although they said they're refurbishing its restraints and cars, I think they'll stick with the orange.oblivion1984 wrote: I think it may look OK if the rides ate the same colour in x-sector.

swarms getting a backwards back row..do you think its possible that they could turn round a few of the shuttles so the gates 1 and 2 are forward and 3 and 4 are backwards, ulitilising the cage system to keep these experiences seperate?

i mean that some shuttles face the forward and some others be turned 180 so they face backwards,although looking on the transfer track from the latest image it looks like the seats are back to back

MY BAD i just spotted that what looked like a reversed seat is actually the foot bar. never mind.

I don't know if it's just me but looking at this picture does it look like there already painted Oblivion drop and supports around the top of the lift hill.TheNigeC wrote:

All the talk of snow not helping them get The Smiler up and running, what about poor old blivvy not being able to be painted because of it. The snow will set the repaint back on its schedule, surely?

I thought that, but there is always the station area to complete under cover until the weather improves.

I think it can be accessed from the end the ride comes out (the pond).scw55 wrote: How do they access the Oblivion pit for maintinence?
Or will they not bother painting the pit because 'it's in the dark anyway'?
But like you say, they probably won't bother painting that track, because no one will be able to see it.

The Pond area near the exit hole actually has an access gate on it for easy entry to the Oblivion Tunnel and then the tunnel itself is well equipped for people to walk through..... When the trains arn't speeding through ofcourse.
This photo is actually taken facing towards the entry hole.

Not just the track but judging by this pic the tunnel needs some TLC too I think it said this it the articleKenzie2012 wrote: The Pond area near the exit hole actually has an access gate on it for easy entry to the Oblivion Tunnel and then the tunnel itself is well equipped for people to walk through.....

I can only assume it was a very bright day and the nifty little invention called a Flash!!!
Bare in mind that is no where near the exit of the tunnel.... it's halfway if not more towards the entrance.
