It currently provides a link between Main Street and Wiggles World.[1] HistoryRivertown opened with the park in 1981.[2] The area originally was home to the Avis Vintage Cars which have since been relocated to the Australian Wildlife Experience. The Avis Vintage Cars were located where Mick Doohan's Motocoaster currently exists.[1][2] At opening the area was home to the Captain Sturt Paddle Wheeler (John Longhurst's signature attraction) and the Avis Vintage Cars.[3] In 2012, the Captain Sturt Paddle Wheeler ceased operations. AttractionsCaptain Sturt Paddle WheelerThe Captain Sturt Paddle Wheeler is a non-operational paddle wheeler. When it was operating, it was a gentle boat ride along the man-made Murrissipi River. The ride is of a similar style to the Mark Twain Riverboat at several Disney theme parks around the world. The ride opened with the park in 1981.[4] The channel which the boat tours is called the Murrissipi River and took Dreamworld founder, John Longhurst, two years to construct working seven 12-hour days a week.[3] The ride originally featured a bush show themed to the era of Ned Kelly. This was discontinued when Farmyard Friends was constructed during 2005.[4] Mick Doohan's Motocoaster{{Main article|Mick Doohan's Motocoaster}}Mick Doohan's Motocoaster is an Intamin Motorbike Launch Roller Coaster named after the Moto GP champion Michael Doohan.[5] Although being classified as one of Dreamworld's Big 8 Thrill Rides,[6] the ride failed to gain support within its first year of operation.[7]Tower of Terror II{{Main article|Tower of Terror II (Dreamworld)|l1=Tower of Terror II}}Tower of Terror II is a steel shuttle roller coaster which is ranked the fourth fastest roller coaster in the world. Opening on 23 January 1997, the ride held the world's fastest roller coaster record by itself for two months before Superman: The Escape opened which caused the ride to share the top spot.[8] Tower of Terror II is also the first roller coaster in the world to achieve a speed of {{Convert|100|mph}}.[9][10] Although the ride is not actually located in any particular themed zone, the main portion of track crosses Rivertown and is therefore included here.Shopping & DiningUpon exiting Mick Doohan's Motocoaster guests receive the opportunity to purchase on-ride photos as well as a variety of racing merchandise from Motocoaster Photos and Motocoaster Pit Stop Shop.
