Work on removing the rock work on The Runaway Train at Chessington continues. Since our last look at the ride more of the theming has been removed. No news yet on if it will be replaced or the reason why its being removed.

Chessington World Of Adventures is currently undergoing a park-wide £5 million makeover and one of the rides selected to receive a large amount of this money is the runaway mine train. The theming for the ride appears to be all fibreglass built on scaffolding as shown on the photos below however it has been suggested that the structure was unsafe which could suggest why Dragon Falls has had its drop theming removed and the runaway mine train has had its rocks removed. It's currently unknown when the attraction will reopen however it's looking like it won't be this year judging by the amount of work the park will have to do to the ride.
