Nrthwnd Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 ^ & ^^ Was Linnanmaki Park in Helsinki the only park that bought one of these coasters? Just curious. It was 'okay'. I thought the tilting would be more intense than it actually was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainChaotika Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 ^ & ^^ Was Linnanmaki Park in Helsinki the only park that bought one of these coasters? Just curious. It was 'okay'. I thought the tilting would be more intense than it actually was. There was a second one in the Amsterdam Dungeon, it closed in 2014 and was only 80m short. And well yes, they still sell those things. For the ghost train/coaster I'd expect more banking than from the one in Helsinki. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nrthwnd Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 ^ I totally forgot that one! I rode it in it's first season, back in Oct.2005. And David and I rode it in 2007 as well. It was fun for what it was. Actually, I think it better served that attraction (The Dungeon) than the one at Linnanmaki. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RCT3Bross Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 I'm very curious about that "V" as that could mean "vliegen" What is Dutch for Flying not in German that is "fliegen". So also filming in Dutch could that mean this ride will be Dutch themed? Just a thought. I could however have the complete wrong impression and it could be for "vogel" wich is German for Bird (But that also counts for the Dutch ).

alexinla Posted May 8, 2016 Share Posted May 8, 2016 The park had to close it's gates at 1.30pm on thursday (fathersday) as over 50000 people already entered the park and they reached capacity. The park stayed open until 9.30pm with all all the mayor rides running(I think normal closing time this time of the year is 6pm) Looks like a good season for Europa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adervus Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 It has already been revealed that the new attraction will be one of the most expensive at Europa-Park: 25 million euros. That's about the price of the "Arthur" ride. Source Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanTPM Posted May 9, 2016 Share Posted May 9, 2016 ^That's quite a large amount so it should be a rather large attraction, very interesting! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RyanTPM Posted May 13, 2016 Share Posted May 13, 2016 Looks like they've done a really nice job on the train, but i really don't get the coaster itself, i understand that it's aimed for small kids but it really could have been a little longer. Not that it'll matter too much though because the area is going to look great overall! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cookiex Posted May 14, 2016 Share Posted May 14, 2016 They can build a second gate in the space they're not using there. I'm guessing they're holding all that space in case they need even more hotels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
