  1. ^but the rail ties on that piece are those of an invert/flyer. Not of a giga
  2. It looks like a normal piece but you can tell by the shape of the rail ties which are all in view. Those are the rail ties of an invert or flyer. *If you're meaning inversion, then maybe it's part of an inline twist looking like it does.
  3. I'm still thinking a B&M launch rather than any other model. Certainly looking like it's a B&M though.
  4. Interesting that the red track has been moved, maybe for shipping? Lots of blue supports though, they look like they are for a transfer track. And also, those ties on the teal track are almost certainly curved like those of an invert or flyer. That would mean the Carowinds giga would have different colored track, and also another project for B&M.
  5. Doesn't really look anything like a coaster support. No manufacturer would deliver parts to the site looking like that, they'd be painted first.
  6. If i remember correctly, the vest snapped on Furious Baco a few years back? But wouldn't it be very difficult to fall out the restraint even without functioning vest straps? Surely with two locking mechanisms(if it has two?), they wouldn't both fail if any?
  7. It mentions in the blog that their will be a delivery on the 25th, guessing that will be track and supports?
  8. I don't think B&M have used the cable lift system before have they?
  9. Looks slightly different to Leviathan, better!
  10. ^That will be fantastic. Hope we can see a lot of the construction that's happening
  11. Pictures on Coaster Friends show white supports as well as track, an all white coaster? I hope not.
  12. ^the Person who provided the pictures said those different rail toes weren't consistent on all the pieces. That piece in the background looks certainly part of a break run.
  13. Looks fantastic, loving that Mat racer! Hope everything's going well at today's opening.
  14. It's possible that it could be just a few pieces with that new rail tie design. But the track doesn't match up either, most evidence is pointing towards something new here, as you said. The large dive machine has very wide track, larger than those pictured. With the white track going to Gardaland and Eftelings dive coaster only being 120ft tall that means it'll have the small track if it is B&M. This track doesn't show any characteristics of a small dive machine, and if it is then why would B&M be changing the track design again?
  15. ^Oh i see, but i agree with you on the supports yeah. Then again, if the teal is most likely going to be for Carowinds, the yellow for the flyer and the white already confirmed for Gardaland then this leaves the red track for Holiday world or Efteling right? if that is actually a B&M.
  16. ^Yes, you are correct in that the support is just a large support. But that track isn't part of a lift hill.
  17. ^yeah that's right. Is there actually blue track there though? I can only see blue supports
  18. You're reading wayyyyyyyyyyyy to much into this. That support is no different than anything else. The "mystery track" is obviously lift track (hence the odd ties, lowered to allow the chain track) and brake/trim track (hence the lowered spine to allow space). But if you're having fun trying to figure out the mystery, don't let me stop you. I just don't want you to get your hopes up. That may well be true, but if it was the top of a lift hill then everything for the chain would already be there. And youre looking at the correct support right? That is in no way normal size. The person who provided the photos noticed it was large also.
  19. ^^Rail ties are a good way of identifying what type of B&M track pieces are. It cant be a large dive machine because the track would be larger and the rail ties would be flat. But that massive support in the background is new, not seen one that big before. Could be part of a tower like on cheetah hunt or a support for the lifthill of the carowinds giga?
  20. Great pictures! That ends speculation of those two pieces being one, but still doesn't explain the rail ties. To add to speculation here, in that collection of photos on Flickr there is something strange. In the first photo if you look in the background there is one HUGE support being taken out of the factory, now what could that be for?.
  21. ^^B&M don't usually change the type of track used for the same type of coaster. Intamin develop their designs, just like they did with the giga. Also, brake runs don't curve like that new track piece does. And with the ties being different to any other B&M we are speculating that it could be a new design, not that it actually is one. But with the footers matching B&m and with many being in a straight line, it seems to match a launch coaster.
  22. ^We won't be able to tell where it's going from the label as that should just say X-works like all B&M's do now. But from the code, we will be able to tell what coaster type it is.
  23. Nope, just got delayed again. I believe they are aiming for some times this month?
  24. Those are the most beautiful shots of a coaster i think I've ever seen! Goliath looks fantastic.
  25. I'd like to watch it but i can't find any link to watch it in the UK.
