V2-dude Posted October 13, 2007 Share Posted October 13, 2007 Are you guys forgetting about Steel Venom/Voodoo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wood Dragon 1988 Posted October 13, 2007 Share Posted October 13, 2007 I guess there are plenty of big Schwarzkopf's that are relocations. Bullet and Magnum Force formerly at Flamingo Land have made the rounds. Also, Zonga, formerly of SFDK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharkTums Posted October 13, 2007 Share Posted October 13, 2007 ^^No one's forgetting it. It's just not that big of a deal relocating a small shuttle coaster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coastered Posted October 13, 2007 Share Posted October 13, 2007 To me, nothing's more impressive than what it takes to "relocate" Eurostar consistently. Yes, Euro Star is pretty impressive to see, to ride and to relocate between fairs. But the best transportable rollercoaster in the world is the Olympia Looping. - More information about Olympia Looping Construction date : June 16 1989 Owner : Barth Builder : Schwarzkopf Length : 4 101.0 ft (1250.0 m) Static height : 126.3 ft (38.5 m) Dynamic height : 106.6 ft (32.5 m) Speed : 49.7 mph (80.0 km/h) Duration : 1'18 Capacity : 3000 riders per hour G Force + : 5.2 G G Force lat : 0.5 G Footprint : 282.8 x 126.3 ft (86.2 x 38.5 m) Serial number : 8509 Lift angle : 24 ° Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
307 Posted October 14, 2007 Share Posted October 14, 2007 Was TGE's Comet relocated or rebuilt? [yeah it's slightly off-topic but I'm just wondering] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carnage Posted October 14, 2007 Share Posted October 14, 2007 ^ It was rebuilt by the remains of the Crystal Beach Cyclone. Though, it was pretty much a new ride at that point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
texcoaster Posted October 14, 2007 Share Posted October 14, 2007 ^^^ It was rebuilt from the remains of the Cyclone as the Comet when it was still at Crystal Beach. It was then relocated from CB to TGE. Someone mentioned Ark Twister earlier... a LOT of the original wood was used in the relocation. More, probably, than most moved woodies. All the track was replaced, of course, but I'd say that at least 75% of the wood support structure was salvaged. It was funny, that first season... all the pieces had numbers painted on them to aid in reconstruction at the new site. It was sorta like riding through a math test!
