Hamburg Sommerdom 2012

Wilde Maus XXL was stopped by an employee after he heard "weird noises". Two cars were stopped on the track. Two riders could leave the car without problems - even if not said in the article I do persume that the car was stuck on the lift so riders could go down the stairs next to it.

 

The ride was closed by the fire-department until a TÜV engineer checked the ride and found no problems.

Wow I love the paint job on Olympia Looping's trains.

Veeery swingey! This time I saw a quite tricky situation when a french kid thought it was time to board the ride

while it was only switching from forward to backward. The ride-attendant was just in time to hold it safely back.

 

 

 

Hooray for warm sticky buns!

A tagada with metal floors? So awesome, yet I imagine also very painful.

If only themeparks could keep their rides painted so beautifully....

 

I will say this again, the Olympia Looping trains are absolutely gorgeous! I love love love that color scheme.

I had a small issue on Olympia this time: They first ran the blue train and after the ride my shoulder-clamp wasn't opening - So I had to worm out of it. The train was replaced with the pink one.
