A train full of guests flies past Corkscrew's station. |

Looking up through the netting that covers part of Rita's queue line, to stop falling objects from injuring guests. |

By 10am, the queue line was already getting full. This was partly due to the fact that the second train had still not been signed over to the park by Intamin. it is hoped to be running by Sunday or Monday. |

The inside of the food stall next to Rita's queue line. Not much equipment has been fitted yet, so for the time being, the only item being sold is Cornetto Soft ice creams. |

Corkscrew was also only running one train, due to problems with the second train. However Corkscrew's queue was understandably much shorter than Rita's. |

Rita had absolutely no technical problems or downtime today, which is amazing to think about when a lot of the "established" rides were having problems! |

One of Corkscrew's trains in the brake run. Riders really get a great view of Rita as it speeds above them. |
