Familypark Neusiedlersee(Austria) builds a new coaster

[Kooky]

Havent´t found a thread so i open a new one for the little park in Austria.

They are building "Rattenmühle" a bobsled coaster for this season and looks like it may become a fun one.

 

Here are some facts:

Height: 19 meter

Lenght: 430m

max. speed: 54 km/h

 

and here are some pictures from http://www.coasterfriends.de/forum/coasterfriends-insider-1/newscenter-park-und-coaster-news-park-talk-5/europa-news-67/5083-2013-neuheit-rattenmuehle-bobsled-coaster-familypark-neusiedlersee-osterreich.html :

I love Gerstlauer wild mouse coasters, and the surroundings looks cool for this one.

Looks like a really fun little coaster so far!

[Kooky]

The track is completed and the tests will begin the next days:

That's a very nice looking ride. I like how it tries to blend into its surroundings.

This looks fantastic. Looks like Gerstlauer are onto yet another winner this year.

The Gerstlauer Bobsled coaster has been, in my opinion, surprisingly unsuccessful as of late, which is really a shame. I thought, with the coasters' smaller footprint but insane g-forces, the coaster would become extremely popular to all kinds of amusement parks. This Bobsled coaster is the first, non-dark ride (Van Helsing at Movie Park Germany), Bobsled coaster since 2006! Really quite sad, because I was always hoping a ride like Heiße Fahrt would come to a park near me in the U.S.

I hate when they mix spineless track with the triangle style one. I sure know why they do it, but I just hate the look of it.

[Aceattack52]

^ Haha "spineless"

[australianalex]

I've never liked the look of the triangle track on Gerstlauer's smaller coasters anyway, but that's just an insignificant complaint for what looks to be otherwise a fantastic family coaster.

I think the combination of the two track styles works great here,

especially with all the surrounding vegetation and landscaping.

 

I think it all depends on the colour of the track (really!) and what

the surroundings are, with it.

 

Looks great. Thanks for sharing the update photos!

I love all of this, how it looks among the trees, etc.

Looks like a fun family coaster. Hope it rides as good as it looks.

[matteocrepaldi]

Looks like a nice little ride! I really like this kind of coasters and I really hope to find a way to ride this one in the future!

[coasterfreak101]

Wow, that looks really nice! It fits great in the area it's in.

[gisco]

I like how they fit in with the trees. Looks way better then leveling everything and replanting. Where shouts in Austria is this park?

Where shouts in Austria is this park?

 

A little bit outside of Wien, close to the border of both Slovakia and Hungary.

here is a little bit shaky onride:

That looks like a lot of fun! I hope more parks build these.

[julioot]

Awesome looking ride. Seems to make a lot of momentum.

 

I think the reaction of the dude filming it says it all.

New this season: "Leonardo's Flying Machine", a beautifully themed Gerstlauer Sky Fly.

That looks beutiful. Why couldn't Six Flags have gotten these instead of the Super Loops..

[Geauga Dog]

It's great to see more of these Sky Fly rides popping up. I hope we can see more of these in the U.S. in the future.

[Nrthwnd]

Very impressed with the theming of everything there on that Sky Fly.

 

And - I think I found a date, to meet that lovely (but probably lonely) winged female up there on the attraction...

He lives in Europa Park. (o; (TPR 2008 Europe Tour)

Wow Gerstlauer really sold a good amount of Sky Flys this year. This is without a doubt the best themed one I have seen yet! I would be surprised if we see one that looks better than this one any time soon.

I didn't know anything about this park until now, but I must say it looks great! That Gerstlauer bobsled looks like a ton of fun, and for that Sky Fly I only have one thing to say... WOW!!!
