Anyone been able to get any updates of the wheels progress ?

Still round I think.

Last weekend it was in the same state.

There was an external company assembling the wheel but I believe the park themselves are putting the carriages on.

I may be that way today will update later.

Sorry about the double post can confirm it's still in the same state as my photos a couple of weeks ago when passing yesterday.

Work looks to be going ahead of the rail ride down by the lake though and still no sign of the third ride as yet.

So not much progress on the wheel we have the gondola poles but no gondolas on site that I could see

There is some work going on in the action zone where the go karts were looks like some leveling for possibly the other new rude rumours suggest a pirate ship.

The rail ride attraction seems to be stalled as well for work as well.

Park due to open this weekend and looks like none of the three new attractions will be ready.

Any news on the pirate ship that was rumoured ?

 

[Nickt77]

Still beams in the top car park and no more news as yet.

They are still sorting the rail ride down by the lake.

As ever wicksteed take their own time with projects.
