^^Yeah, it looks like it's a Gerstlauer for certain. Can tell from the track connectors and also with the support going directly into the footer and not secured with bolts. A screenshot posted on No Limits Exchange shows the footer which is not shown in those photos above.

I don't how they got Dreamworks, Loinsgate, and Sony Pictures Studios to come together all in one place, but it looks awesome - three studios parks for the price of one. Hunger Games, Zombieland, and Ghostbusters attractions sound awesome, and I'm curious to see how a How To Train Your Dragon area turns out. Motiongate looks like it will give Universal a run for the money for the studio park concept when this opens, and will put Dubai firmly on the theme park map if it wasn't already.

^I would imagine it is because they all want a piece of the action in a potentially lucrative market without the risk of their own investment. Kudos to their team for bringing all them together---looks like it is going to be incredible.

The entertainment and street performances in the Bollywood section should be amazing,

and totally exhausting, just to watch them, if they go as fast as their on-film counterparts.

 

 

(P.S. I finally figured out how to get the sound working in the video. WOW and more!)

Not like "The Neighbours" Bollywood, but fun enough.

here is the complete masterplan of Dubai Parks and Resort

 

How far is all of this in relationship to the indoor Warner Bros. Park? This is right there with Yaz and Ferrari right?

 

 

And all of this is less than an hour drive away from Ferrari World, which is expanding like crazy right now. I think I know where I'm going in 2017. Now to start training for that 16 hour flight. Oof

 

Top of the page, man.

In a recent german documentary about Mack the train for Dragon Gliders was revealed. Because I'm too lazy to take more than one screen you have to suffer through some German if you wanna see more (there is more)

The whole documentary was really good, though I think most non-german speakers won't get much out of if it, so here are the interesting scenes, where you can look at the coaster:

- The scene mentioned above @14:21

- Nerdy, naked coaster shots on rail without chassis @17:39

- Container loading @28:33

Not at all surprised the opening dates have been pushed back. This is common practice in the Gulf to over-promise on opening dates (and number projections).

 

Eventually DPR will get everything open, but I would encourage everyone to hold off buying tickets to visit until all parks and rides are open. I feel bad for the people who already bought airline tickets thinking the opening dates were set realistically by the management.
