Śląskie Wesołe Miasteczko is certainly a park I'd never heard of but it's been operating since 1956 in Chorzów Poland.

 

The park has just announced a new addition to their 3 current coasters. Lech Coaster will be a 50m Vekoma looping coaster with multiple inversions and the following stats

- 50 m tall,

- 915m long,

- max speed 95 km/hr,

- sound, water, light effects,

- capacity 1000 persons/hr

 

I did a little digging and found some pictures and info. The POV video at the end is worth watching as the layout diagram really doesnt do this justice.

Woah that looks awesome! The first drop looks insane, and every element is taken super-fast! If that NL2 creation is an accurate represantation of the real thing, it's gonna be one hell of a ride!

Looks great. Really looking forward to finding out how it rides given all those interesting fast elements.

My god this looks good,i'm also very impressed with what Vekoma has been doing recently. Hopefully it'll have the same pacing as it does in that No Limits 2 recreation.

How accurate was the video?By that I mean it's using Schwarzkopf-style track and trains!Is that what Vekoma's gonna do-use Anton's old designs?

 

I'm 99.9% sure Vekoma will not be using Schwarzkopf's design...it was for animation and layout purposes only.

Lol of course not, it's just a visual representation! But it's the closest thing available of the coaster styles in NL2.

It takes a lot of time and effort to create and use a custom train in NoLimits 2, even with the community's scripts. Why should Vekoma spend the time and money when they can just use a built-in style that looks almost the same as their own track with trains that appear to behave the same?

Wow, Vekoma stepping up their game and joining us in the new millennia! No more boring old vanilla corkscrew coasters, eh?

Posted

Wow, this looks awesome! I love the water effect. Looking forward to seeing how this will develop. Good job, Vekoma!

I go to Poland every 10 years or so. Looks like I'll have some solid-looking Vekoma products to sample next time around. Great to see the coaster count in Poland continue to rise.

Off ride is definitely a speed up version

Why do you think that? It only appears to be a small launch out of the station, that's it. Think Twisted Colossus.

 

Here's the video surfacing again:

 

 

I'm seriously in love with this coaster!

The multi-looper is really back! What a day to be alive!

Great to see Vekoma making bigger and better quality rides! They recently posted an official layout on their Facebook page which they say is their 'next generation looping coaster'. I think it looks great and I can't wait to see the final product! It's nice to see that Vekoma's roller coasters are getting bigger and better over time!
