SC = Sitting Coaster (proven by Led Zeppelin tags)

 

Even if true, that doesn't rule out "standard coaster." Which is an idea I'm liking more and more since (most of us are assuming) Sitting and Standing track isn't actually any different.

I agree with you 100%.

wow this is really heating up man, I never really thought of how weird supports would look without paint, but I guess with all the coaster porn going around, it's nice to see some support porn too

On a serious note I can't wait to see these 2 bad boys rise into the sky. The track amounts are promising and I really wanna see some color on the supports.

 

On a not so serious note, the colors are like the character Miguel from El Dorado.

Poor Liberty... You'll be missed

 

^^ The red track is hyper track, not DM track. However, McDonald's the Ride does sould very plausible...

 

Dan - I wanna see the support colors before I jump to conclusions though ...

 

Former Cuban gynecologist, turned auto salesman, could it be a sign?

According to the website, B&M uses flatbeds to transport coasters within the states, so this may be for an Asian ride.

Can you decipher the code above the date?

^ really doubt it. B&M have a factory in Europe already. They would only fabricate it in US if the EU factory was fully booked - which I doubt is the case.

Yeah N TOW UK as in altoN TOWers UK

^ hmm, not convinced the first letter is an N - could be a M, and not 100% about the W - but not quite sure what letter it could be.

 

Assuming it is a N & W - I guess it's not implausible for it to stand for Alton Towers UK, but I'm still not convinced by any means.

1) Why make track in the US for a UK park when they have their own factory (and head quarters) in Europe - Switzerland I think - about a days drive to Alton Towers

2) Why use code on the stickers to keep the customer secret, then splash that on the supports (assuming the yellow track is for those supports, which brings me to...)

3a) Yes, there is a new rc planned for AT, but we already know what the theming is going to be like, and don't think yellow track would 'fit' with this,

3b) The red track is Hypercoaster track, and can't be used in alton towers

3c) There is continuing debate that it's even possible that the new AT coaster is a B&M as the track type shown in the planning application is simple bi-rail without any spine like a B&M has

I would hope it's a coaster for Europe , but given that B&M has their own factory in Europe , that doesn't seems likely.

 

On another note , I heard that B&M transports tracks on a flatbed for tracks IN America , how about this coaster going to Canada ?

It would explain why it's made in the US and not in Europe , and it would also explain why it's packed in trailers and not on flatbeds ....

 

But I still hope it's A B&M Hypercoaster for Toverland or Phantasialand

 

 

- Random youtube-ness ...

When track was [roduced for both of La ronde's B&M's they were shipped on flatbeds,not shipping containers.
