verticalzero Posted March 12, 2007 Posted March 12, 2007 That's good speed for starting to build the lift-hill again, they could put more steel girders into the structure to make it strong. I'm sure no-one will say it's a "Hybrid" cos it's has 20 or 30 steel supports dotted around.
coasterchi Posted March 17, 2007 Posted March 17, 2007 Photo update of this week, the buildup for the lifthill will be stopped for the crossing tracks under it. The construction of the lifthill will go on coming thursday or friday. Now the are building the track under the lifthill and the parts before that: Till next time!
CGM Posted March 19, 2007 Posted March 19, 2007 Wow, that really is huge! Particuarly for a GCI. It looks to be a fast-paced layout with lots of twisting and low-to-the ground turns. I hope that we get even more GCIs in Europe over the next few years
verticalzero Posted March 19, 2007 Posted March 19, 2007 Troy is looking good again with it's lift-hill rising steadly every day. I hope for more GCI coasters in Europe esp in Holland and England.
sfne2005 Posted March 20, 2007 Posted March 20, 2007 Keep the pics coming! This puppy best be open come early July!!!!
Menghini Posted March 20, 2007 Posted March 20, 2007 Wow! A piece of art ! In 2 weeks the season will be starting... Troy will open somewhere in June, won't it?
turbolaaf Posted March 20, 2007 Author Posted March 20, 2007 Wow! A piece of art ! In 2 weeks the season will be starting... Troy will open somewhere in June, won't it? Toverland has no season and is open year round. Next to that troy will open (hopefully) on the end of june.

Toverland has no season and is open year round. Next to that troy will open (hopefully) on the end of june. I know, i know... You're right. But let's rephrase: MY season starts april 1! But I really can't wait till the end of june...

Janster Posted March 21, 2007 Posted March 21, 2007 Wow. This sure is a candidate for best woody in Europe. Can't wait for the troy to open!
dr.gumbo Posted March 21, 2007 Posted March 21, 2007 Looking good, looks a lot bigger than I thought I really hope Flamingo land does get one of these, I love GCI coasters (despite not have ridden one)
FLIPDUDE Posted March 22, 2007 Posted March 22, 2007 Uhm...isnt the lift hill a little too close to the first turn, considering it's at a wrong angle?! what the heck kind of crazy drop will bring riders from the top of that hting to the start of the turn?!
Wishmaster Posted March 22, 2007 Posted March 22, 2007 ^ That drop doesn't look so crazy to me. Half the rides out there have a drop like that. Why don't you look at the layout yourself: http://www.themeparkreview.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=25902&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=109
hyyyper Posted March 23, 2007 Posted March 23, 2007 The guys are making progress with the parallell turns that'll go under the lift, allmost at the point where they cross-over. Also they have continued placing the 'ties' and 'catwalks' on the places where they didn't have those things 9 pics:
Janster Posted March 23, 2007 Posted March 23, 2007 It looks like they still need to do a lot of construction work. And testing after that.... Will it really open in june? Two months left... The thing looks really amazing. For such a small park - with all do respect. It looks like the stunt Holiday Park performed with their Expedition GeForce. Keep up the good work Toverland!
kennywood!007 Posted March 23, 2007 Posted March 23, 2007 Nice lightly colored wood. I bet it smells goooooooooood!
coasterchi Posted March 25, 2007 Posted March 25, 2007 Man o man, the guys are building damn fast! That's a thing for sure! I wonder when the lifthill is fully standing. But i hope this wednesday. Well, i've only got one more thing to say: PHOTOS! Till next time!
Janster Posted March 27, 2007 Posted March 27, 2007 They really build it fast. In this pace the coaster will be finished in june! btw: look at the weather in the Netherlands... Sunny and 15 degrees Celcius. The dutch theme parks should have opened two weekends ago.
verticalzero Posted March 27, 2007 Posted March 27, 2007 Looking so creamy and love those close up views of the track and banked corners, GCI will finish the circuit on time, just pray for no strong winds. Give a Southern England Park a GCI masterpiece with lovely fan-turns, not the North, they get everything while the south does not.
dr.gumbo Posted March 27, 2007 Posted March 27, 2007 ^Take you dont like the north of England but we dont have many coasters either, I live in Newcastle which is the most northen city and the closest coaster worth going on is 100 miles or so away (Flamingo land and LWV) Besides, Its the middle of England that has everything Enought of my ranting and onto the topic, theyre making really good progress with this ride, especially with that insident a few weeks ago. Most parks will have delayed it for at least a month if that happened!
coastercub Posted March 29, 2007 Posted March 29, 2007 Troy is looking more and more fun as time goes by... and there's still quite a bit more construction to do yet ! I feel a trip coming on !
Coasterfan91 Posted March 29, 2007 Posted March 29, 2007 I´ve heard that the layout of this coaster has changed a little bit.Is that rumor right?
