    Parque Warner Madrid | Gotham City Escape | Intamin Launch Coaster | 2023

    3 trains on GCE all day, quite bad stacking and 80 second plus dispatches. Obviously 80 seconds isn’t the worst operations ever but that’s not great at all if you ask me! Also the preshow is dire and they’d honestly be better off scrapping it! Superman running one train for the first few...

    Parque Warner Madrid | Gotham City Escape | Intamin Launch Coaster | 2023

    No downtime on GCE today, but 80 second dispatches on a 12 seat train isn’t too amazing in my opinion, but I agree it’s still the best in the park!

    Parque Warner Madrid | Gotham City Escape | Intamin Launch Coaster | 2023

    So got three rides on Gotham City Escape today, front, back and middle rows. Went into it not expecting much after seeing the testing footage on here but blimey, what a ride! First launch really kicks, far more than Taron’s first launch. The theming before this launch is decent and there’s a...

    Thorpe Park | Project Exodus | Mack Hyper Coaster | 2024

    I think rather than an obvious Egyptian theme, it'll be something more ambiguous perhaps? I'm thinking something along the lines of the coaster being a huge structure built by an ancient civilisation, something of legend like the Colossus of Rhodes etc. Those hieroglyphs are hinting something...

    Parque Warner Madrid | Gotham City Escape | Intamin Launch Coaster | 2023

    Trying to book tickets for the weekend after, but the website doesn't like my UK postcode :( Anyone else having issues with the site? Or is it easier to book third party?

    Both tbh! Black Mamba shows 15 minutes but was actually an hour, meanwhile FLY showed as 60 minutes at times but was actually about 35.

    Europa Park had pretty accurate ones on my visits. Phantasialand last month the other hand... Umm, probably the worst I've seen!

    Indiana Beach I Dreier Looper | Quimera relocation | 2023

    I love American patriotism like this, it's SO cringe bless them. Glad this coaster has found a new home though, almost always a good thing (bar SLC relocations)

    PortAventura | Uncharted | Intamin Multi-Dimension Coaster | 2023

    Definitely doesn't look awful but I can't help but feel some variations in height would have done wonders. Currently it's pretty apparent what it's hiding!

    Alton Towers | Nemesis | B&M Retrack | 2024

    Not going to lie, I think it looks vile. So so tacky and I fear it'll turn what was once a very imposing coaster into a joke. Oh well!

    Will another launch method be discovered in a future?

    I swear I remember that years ago, Freischütz at Bayern Park was said to do this when it rolls through the station at the end of the ride. Is this true? I can't seem to find any evidence of it now. Edit- Though I'm not certain on the reliability of the source... There's an article on Park World...

    Heide-Park to make its ”next major investment” in 2024

    That purple definitely fits the new Toxic Garden name because it's making me sick tbh. I'm hoping it fades a bit in the sun, maybe? I can't see it quite fitting in with the other coasters on that side of the lake. At least it'll brighten the skyline up a little, god knows that place needs it.

    Thorpe Park | Project Exodus | Mack Hyper Coaster | 2024

    I'm confident that 'Exodus' is referring to the 45 minute rush to exit the car park each evening so I doubt it tbh

    Vekoma building ZigZag test-construction @ Vlodrop

    I thought this too! Just seems a very complex way to do something that will probably be very boring to ride haha

    Vekoma building ZigZag test-construction @ Vlodrop

    Yeah as I said, as part of a scene. Just seems a bit expensive and over the top to me but maybe it'll make sense when it's implemented. ... I'm thinking there might be a reason for that ;)

    Vekoma building ZigZag test-construction @ Vlodrop

    If I'm understanding what they're going for here, it seems a bit... dull and pointless? Unless it's specifically for a park with space shortages or a theming element/scene in mind?
