Auckland theme park Rainbow's End closes ride after log flips

A ride at Auckland's Rainbow's End theme park has been closed until Wednesday morning, after it tipped over while people were onboard. Rainbow's End chief executive Karen Crabb said the log flume ride was caught as it was sliding down towards its end, tipping onto its side. There were no injuries, but the people at the front of the ride got wet, she said. She said there was no risk to passengers in the event of the ride tipping, other than getting wet. The ride was closed for the remainder of the day, as engineers check the ride railings, and is due to re-open Wednesday.
