Only the first drop is left to be erected. The worlds largest Immelmann turn is now complete, dwarfing the one on Spinball Whizzer at Alton Towers - photos 2, 3 and 4. The playhouse continues to develop, with the sides of the building going up. Last two photos show the first 'dragon' to arrive, and the large amount of mesh that will be used for rockwork and other theming in the area.

I think these are parts for the playhouse

The last piece of track; the base of the first drop, was put in to place on the 14th January completing the circuit. New photos show the amazing first drop, which may surprise a few people due to the thrilling angle it descends. The playhouse is starting to come together with theming being put on to the sides.
