Dissapointing news. I thought I had just discoverd another SMOOTH Intamin in Europe (Too good to be true I supppose) Let's hope we'll see many more of these wonders of the world in the future (apart from the one being built at SFGAdv)

Just realised that this wooden coaster is an Intamin. Has anyone been on both this and Balder at Liseberg, Sweden? How do they compare? Is Coaster Express (Formerly Wild Wild West) an Intamin woodie of the SUPER SMOOTH kind?

Live in central Copenhagen... ...so only 3 minutes (on my old bike) to Tivoli Gardens

Wasn't there at some point a long term plan made public for Thorpe Park... and didn't it include a wooden coaster at some time in the future? If they plan to build one I hope this will be an Intamin. Went to Liseberg recently... oh Boyyyy is Balder the best wooden coaster I have ever been on ... BY FAR!!! YES!!! Airtime hill after airtime hill... after airtime hill... Keeping my fingers crossed!

An article in a Danish newspaper (Børsen 15/7/05), claims that Blackstone will not be satisfied with Legoland 'only' being Denmark's 3rd most popular tourist attraction with 'only' 1.530.000 visitors a year (after 1. Tivoli with 4.316.000 and 2. Bakken with 2.500.000 visitors), and the director of Legoland Billund (Denmark) promises major investments in the future, and reveals that they will try to entice more visitors by opening one or more new attractions already for the 2006 season... This article is linked to another article describing how Tivoli and Faarup Sommerland have had major increase in visiting numbers since investing in major rollercoasters (Dæmonen for Tivoli/Falken for Faarup)... Could we posibly see a major coaster at Legoland in the near future? Surely this will be the same case for California, Windsor and Germany.[/b]
