Alabama Adventure | Cheddar Chase | L&T Systems Wild Mouse | 2022

[Pear]

It seems Alabama Adventure is teasing a 2022 addition. The thing under the tarp looks very similar to a Timberliner car! A family Gravity Group wooden would be a great fit here!

There's also this post from September showing a large land clearing

So if that's a Timberliner car, then that Gerstlauer project isn't going here. The search continues.

If that is indeed a coaster car then you can count Alabama Adventure out of the Gerstlauer Sweepstakes.

Wow impeccable timing

 

[TPoseOnTantrum]

If this is indeed a lead car and we're keeping our expectations low, the train could always be for Rampage and the land clearing pic a red herring. I don't see any construction markers.

 

[CoasterHour]

My assumption is that this is for a new family Gravity Group, but could a family RMC Hybrid be on the table?

 

[Wazzupnerds]

I don't think thats a Timberliner personally, but at this point, I think we can all agree AA is getting a coaster.






WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO NEW COASTER IN A DECADE LETS GOOOOOO

the train could always be for Rampage

PTC posted on FB some weeks ago that Rampage's train arrived at their facilities for winter maintenance, so if whatever is under the tarp is a coaster train, it's definitely not for Rampage.

I remember this now, nice catch

Alright, speculation time. If the park is getting a new GG, I think something like Switchback with an inversion would be my hope. You get that inversion coaster the park needs, and you get a new woodie with a focus on airtime.

They hinted at some ideas for potential expansion in an ACE event video from 2019 ( link: ACE Winter Warm Up Welcome & Alabama Adventure ) also mentions they were looking at eventually adding at least two of:

• A small Gerstlauer Euro-Fighter (I.e Iron Shark - they mentioned as a specific example in the video)
• Gravity Group family wooden coaster (I.e Kentucky Flyer - they mentioned as a specific example in the video)
• Proslide water coaster (likely similar to Mammoth or Wildebeest at Holiday World given the Koch family’s affinity for them there, and since the water park is more popular at Alabama adventure currently)

If they add any combination of the above, all of them would definitely be substantial improvements and give the park another signature attraction alongside Rampage.

I already know that, but my speculation is basically a combination of a Eurofighter and a GG woodie thats unique.

RIP the Gerst dream, looks like the announcement will be on Thanksgiving.

So the 25th November.

 

[Twisterfan1995]

Yep. Based on the teaser video and what they talked about in the past, My money is on GG Family level woodie with airtime ala Kentucky Flyer.

Once again, ignoring something. This is a very important clue. Looks like we are getting something similar to Mineblower.

 

[CoasterHour]

Imagine a shuttle gravity group woodie with an inversion, that would be wild.

That’s my hope. A homage to Zoomie, and it’s unique

So literally what Dorney was gonna get?

wouldn't be surprised if this was the Dorny coaster, would explain how the park got it for cheap
