Hi Kimberley - welcome aboard!
I'm hoping that the specially-decorated Waveswinger makes it back into the park. It was just on the right as you entered the ride area, but was only half-constructed on opening day. When it was removed, the Speedway took its place.
We have some great rides coming from David Littleboy's restoration team, which I'm really looking forward to...
Rob

The situation with the wave swinger isn't clear at the moment and the Speedway will be coming out in October to make way for the Ghost Train on that spot. In the New Year the ghost train will move elsewhere in the park, the Speedway will hopefully return and the situation with the wave swinger should be clarified by then. One thing I can tell you is things will keep moving and changing and more interesting things will come and go along the way so keep visiting
