According to @koppen he spoke with Intamin and they are the ones who told him they are using regular trains and not the wing-rider type. Unless Intamin is being playful, and even though the design suggest otherwise, we as of now should expect regular trains. Yep, everything except ya know, Intamin's confirmation that it won't be one... Other coasters with the new type of track: I305 (regular OTSR trains with straps), Formula Rossa (regular trains)... Wing rider as expected from the very beginning, even the "course" from those few who failed in their attempt to be cooler than the others. Thank you very much "coaster experts". This project is amazing. We are talking about a coaster that if it was opened in EEUU it would be considered "a world's best". Airtime, wing rider trains and one inversion. BTW, do you see the cable return at the top of the lift? Looking forward to see the first tests of this monster. -

I don't know the reason the rumor of "regular trains" has appeared... actually if you look at the width of the track you can see that is clearly a wing rider. Moreover, the lift evacuation stairs are placed in both sides, something that is logic thinking in a wing rider distribution: Intimidator (mega lite as well) have only one evacuation stairs in one of the sides, and the distance between the track and the handrail is much smaller... Okay, there are some differences between this coaster and Skyrush... if you see the handrail the shape is different, but don't forget this is the "last model" of that kind of coaster and it has some improvements. Are you able to see the return of the cable lift going up the lift, instead of going through the ground like Skyrush? -

Europa Park Discussion Thread
Trevor replied to Ultracoasters's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Today at the first "amusement industry enthusiast" event in PortAventura, Maximilian Röeser from Mack rides show us some new renders of the suspended family coaster in Europa Park, and also presented to us their new patent. This new "rafting ride" wants to create the "out of control" sensation from the rafting but also offer the confort from a ride. This new track will be underwater, so deep you won't be able to see it, so the layout would be unclear to the passengers. This new track allows the boat to float in the water like the water rides and also to connect with the track to do step drops and speed roller coaster layouts. here are the pictures. And here is a brand new render from the coaster! Maximillian form Mack Rides Pictures from the new patent Track drawing Detail from the rafting ride This was Mack rides! -

New B&M trains on Steel Dragon
Trevor replied to Trevor's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Here's a video with images of the new trains! [youtu_be] [/youtu_be] -
Here's the artwork What do you think about the new B&M trains on Steel Dragon? I'm personally very surprised. I never thought that B&M could make a trains for a Morgan coaster! :O The front of the new trains is like most of the B&M hipers As you can see, the the train has also the old Morgan wheels and assembly Remember the old trains? This is how it looks now. Pretty nice, isn't it?

Alton Towers Discussion Thread
Trevor replied to Ed's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Everybody is talking about the layout but maybe the "world first element" is not in the track, but in the trains... All the theming is going around the inoculator, the hypnotizer... maybe the trains will feature water spray effects and some other special effects? -

Trevor replied to Shockwave's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
Checking some videos from the park, I share with you this one. That's the Hurakan Condor Show... a sacrifice to 24 people on the ride. The show was done during summers nights. Could be Hurakan Condor the first free fall tower to have a show that interacts with it? And I also upload a picture from myself from Shambhala, I think it colud be a nice desktop! -

I'd like to share with all coasters enthusiast my pictures of Shambhala. The new Shambhala area has allowed all coaster fans to take impressive pictures from two of the most amazing B&M in Europe, Dragon Khan and Shambhala. Both different sensations and a really BIG change of the skyline and big revival for Dragon Khan, which has been the king of PortAventura since 1995, now is a "child ride" with THAT monster above it. Unfortunately I can't upload the pictures in all it's resolution, but if there's anyone interested in one, please let me know! Hope you enjoy the pics! That's what you see when enter to the park. Believe me, the picture doen't make justice, but it's really VERY BIG From Polynesia area you can get this amazing views from the drop. Until this year, I always thought that Dragon Khan was very hight. Now you notice the difference. Shambhala is almost the DOUBLE! That's what you see from outside the park, with Hurakan Condor in the back and Dragon Khan below Two B&M's and one Intamin! This is very impressive. Also there is a big difference in the sound... Dragon Khan makes A LOT of noise, and you can't almost hear Shambhala! The lift from below The same view from the splash, which is just underneath the tallest support Splash!!! If you are in the train, you can slightly get wet! Drop! Notice the train with orange leds in the zero car and the white lights from the videoride cameras! You can hug the supports!! And hear all the sounds and vibrations! Two drops! The drop from another point! The speedhill! As you all know, the only trims in Shambhala are placed just before this element. But the combination is really well done because, even if the trims are activated, you can't feel them because of the high speed and airtime of the speedhill! Good job mister B and mister M! One of the most intese cammelbacks (in my opinion), the one after the splash! More B&M's and the "best cammelback" picture from inside the station Night shot! And finally.... two drops, two B&M's!!
