Double0Kevin Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 ^ Ironically, I find both of those to be 2 of the ugliest trains out there. X2 just looks like a hunk of steel on wheels, It's like they forgot to add the body to the frame. I would like to see some nice fiberglass bodies on the cars. As for, Screamin' reminds me too much of old DCA with all the bright colors and what not. Screamin would look way better with open air Intmain cars like on Colossus at Thorpe IMO.

DJeXeL Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 ^I do agree about Screamin'. As much as I like the current trains, the Intamin "open air" design would be better you're correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zachclarke2 Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 I've always liked Magnum's trains. Something about the retro rocket/space design really strikes my fancy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigDipper 80 Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 Anyone know what happened to these trains? Such a shame Carowinds doesn't run them I never knew that Thunder Road ran such awesome-looking trains! Very cool, and they look pretty comfy, too! I have to agree that Verbolten has some very nice trains. I'm also partial to the NAD Century Flyers. They're lumbering boxes, but they have style.

arby Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 When I look for Carowinds history, carowindsearlyyears.com is a good site. Based on the information at this link the trains came from Riverview Park in Chicagoand ran from 76 - 80. PTC cars were purchased to replace them in 1981 because they were too hard on the track.

Mr Stratosphere Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 A little biased right now, but I really like El Loco's cars for the Adventuredome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
molemaster43 Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 The new trains on Coastersaurus at Legoland Florida look really nice. I also like the look of the trains that the Thunderbolt at Kennywood has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Stratosphere Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 I also think the trains look cool for Dodonpa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aceattack52 Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 ^^^ Wow I came to this tread specifically for the purpose of mentioning the El Loco trains. You beat me to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SFOGdude25 Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Incredible Hulk's trains have always been a favorite of mine. They are so sleek and well-themed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simaticable Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 I love Schwarzkopf trains. i just prefer the past greatness rather than today's modern stuff, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MayTheGForceBeWithYou Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 I find myself partial to car themed trains or train themed trains. Xcelerator, Thunder Mountain, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cfc Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 (edited) When it comes to old-school wooden coaster trains, I'll go with Kennywood's Thunderbolt. I'm partial to Verbolten's trains, too. But I agree with Robb, even though I've never ridden it--Raptor's trains look pretty damn cool. Edited December 5, 2013 by cfc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schrecken Posted December 5, 2013 Share Posted December 5, 2013 Being that I just rode it for the first time tonight, I thought Wild Eagle's trains were pretty neat looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcjp Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 ^I think all B&M wing coaster trains look good. Now that these are open (or at least built ) they should also be mentioned. It's amazing how good Flying over the rainforest's trains look even in the distance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gerstlaueringvar Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Flying Over the Rainforest. Especially at night when the LED lights turn on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoopScreweD Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Not the prettiest in the bats case but very nicely done train design on the (original) Bat and Eagle Fortress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingRCT3 Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 Some new hotness for this year: Seven Dwarfs Mine Train Il Tempo Extra Gigante at Hunderfossen Familiepark. It is said this train will feature smoke and sound effects! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterbill Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 I have to agree with Robb, Raptor has awesome trains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andybarnes84 Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 These will always hold a special place in my heart But i've always had a strange thing for these too, just like the clunky style: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPmillenia94 Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 I've always loved the look of Premier's older LIM launched coaster trains. I think it's a shame that they've switched to the boxy, generic-looking, 6-person car trains they use now. Gorgeous trains. Not to mention comfortable.. What a shame..
