Good observation, I did not notice that! -
Kolmården Discussion Thread

I actually don't know what to expect to be honest. The Land and Environment court is just hell to deal with, but at the same time I don't know if Kolmården would appeal to this level unless they were very confident that they have a strong case. I wonder when the court will treat the case, I hope it won't take long until it starts. -

Awesome looking trains! I've never been bothered by shinguards to be honest. At least not when I know that the alternative to them are this: -

Danish coaster enthusiast Kian was given a tour of the area by the parks CEO. All credit for the photos and information to him! Source "Zamperla Barnyard. This will be called the "Milkshaker" and one of their ideas is to have scents go out around the ride area of for instance, vanilla or strawberry. It's not confirmed, but it's likely." "Zamperla Demolition Derby. The theme is that a sheep has painted targets on the bulls behinds, so there'll be a laughing sheep beside the ride with a bucket of red paint." "The tractor ride will go through several "scenes" and this is one of them, the final result should be a cow-house." "This is a brand new generation of trains from Zierer that Djurs is the first to get. They're more comfortable and look much better in my opinion. The trains was one of my concerns with them choosing Zierer so this was nice to see. As you can see, I'm quite excited about it! " "This will be a photo shop for the coaster and the tractor ride." "We climbed the coasters lift and here's a view of the two new ponds." "Looking towards Piraten." "Zamperla Magic Bikes. This will be themed to a grain mill and it is actually the biggest Zamperla has done, with 10 gondolas. " "The foundation and steelwork for the Demolition Derby, which is apparently quite a big piece of work, which is why not a lot of parks has acquired one of these." "Foundations for the two Zierer Family Drop Towers." "Foundation for the "Milkshaker"." "Some of the tractor layout. In the areas where guests can't go there'll be this kinda meadow with various themed elements. " -
Insane is designed so that maintenance is done while the car is on the track. Should they need to take a vehicle off then it's not that hard. In one place the rail is "splittable", where you can take the cars off. The car is then mechanically lowered down into the maintenance garage, which is under the station.

Kolmården Discussion Thread

Kolmården is going to appeal the decision to the Land and Enviorment court. This is the fast way of obtaining the license, if they go Kolmården's way. Then Wildfire can happen in 2016, maybe mid to late summer but still 2016. If they say no then the zoning plan will have to be created and the ride will be delayed. -

Tusenfryd Discussion Thread
_koppen replied to Shadowforce's topic in Theme Parks, Roller Coasters, & Donkeys!
In the years with fresh track it runs perfectly good with the Vekoma trains, but they were still beating the crap out of the track way too fast! Also the time for loading is horrible because they have to do two safety checks with the seats belt and then the bars. Now they only have to do one check. It's hard to say how it will ride, it had a lot of re-tracking done last off-season, and I suspect that they have changed the rest now for these new trains -

Yes, it and all the other rides were sold to an unnamed park New photos! The new area looks really cool, and I love that the coaster have the same colors as Piraten. Then the little ones can feel just as cool as their parents. The area will get a milkshake/frozen yogurt bar Source -
