RyanTPM Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Doesn't show much of the restraints, but the themeing on it looks great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoinItForTheFame Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 This will be the train of Taron Source: Phantasialand Wow!!! Now that's how you theme a train!! Amazing!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.J. Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Looks to be a high seating arrangement like Mack mega coasters. I'm not sure if I like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarlaKoaster Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Glad to have the train revealed! A wing rider style train would have been incredible but the realist in me always discounted it on account of the rocks being so close. The theming is incredible, of course, and I would have been surprised if it was anything less. Looks to be a high seating arrangement like Mack mega coasters. I'm not sure if I like that. Why's that?

RCT3Bross Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 That looks awesome. Really love the Mack style trains, was a huge fan of the Blue Fire freedom, so to see what Intamin did here makes me happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A.J. Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Why's that? (genuinely interested as opposed to debating!) If my feet don't touch the floor (or there isn't a floor at all), I should be able to extend my legs outward, even a little bit. If you're going to put a wall in front of my feet, let me put them flat on the floor. B&M mega coasters, as well as Skyrush, have nice open fronts that let me ride hands up, legs out. The Mack coasters, as well as this one, have the wall in front of your legs that means that you have to keep your feet down the entire time even though you can't touch the floor. Obviously this is a safety thing which is why I'm not like, "DESTROY THE TRAIN WITH FIRE", but it's just how I like to ride. I'd much rather feel like I'm "in control" unless a train is completely open on all sides like the previous examples. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarlaKoaster Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Ah thanks for explaining A.J! I think I prefer my legs in the air (ooh err) regardless of whether I can put them out in front or not but I totally get what you mean and I guess it is all down to personal choice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveDowning Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Oh don't worry about that. They say quite clearly that they want freedom of movement to all sides. So as this is a completely new train, I am 100% sure that you will be able to stretch your legs and arms as far as you want. You can even see that the sides are open and that the seats and the rows are further apart than usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarlaKoaster Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Don't worry, I'm not worried in the slightest, this coaster looks perfect in every way! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingRCT3 Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 I like both having my foot on a floor, or be high up in the air. I get what you mean AJ, and now that I think about it, yeah it's quite frustrating. But either way, the pro of having the feet in the air is that it reduces the vibrations, as you are less in contact with the train. If that makes sense. I think I prefer my legs in the air (ooh err) We said nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gerstlaueringvar Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 (edited) Haven't seen the train sideways but one thing I know about Intamin trains is that they ALWAYS have the biggest space but less tolerant restraints Edited January 22, 2016 by gerstlaueringvar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexinla Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 ^^ You might should add that this is a rendering from Tobi, very talented person, but nothing official from Phantasialand Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveDowning Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Two Renderings from Tobi at phantafriends, showing what I was refering to earlier: So it´s realistic that Taron will be self-dueling. I guess this will be the best aspect of the whole ride Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarlaKoaster Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Duelling? I hadn't even thought about that. It just keeps getting better and better. I need to lay down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RCT3Bross Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Taron is really a overdoses of awesomeness for coaster enthusiast around the globe. Handsdown this is my favorite project of 2016, and it keeps getting better, bet when it is open and we see the complete picture (station, onride that kind of stuff) I will lose it.

DaveDowning Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 So it will have 3 train operations? I imagine three trains will be the minimum. It will be four trains, maybe even five. Judging from the construction, they will have the station as entry point, with off-loading on the storage track, not dual-loading like at Cheetah Hunt, but more like Dueling Dragons. Load and Unload are seperated. This means two trains in the station, and two on the track aswell. Plus another one for maintenance, that would make it five trains.

Don't take the last one for maintenance so obvious, usualy plans in this way misses and we are standing in line for longer time while two of the trains on duty slowly eats the queue. Phantasialand can get easily crowded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
