Grona Lund to Expand for 2024?

[Boodangy]

Ah, a family boomerang because having only one Vekoma family coaster with abysmal capacity wasn't enough.

To be fair, it could lighten the load on Kvasten and maybe the lines would be manageable on both.

Only Gröna Lund would consider squeezing in another coaster like this. Incredulous if it actually happens.

Interestingly it looks like it starts with the nearer spike, suggesting a launch to start. Then at the far end it has the normal lift hill.

Looks like there will be an upside down launch for the Vekoma thrill coaster. Perhaps part of the "worlds first" feature (but its not really)

In the annual report for Parks & Resorts (the owner of Gröna Lund) it is stated that the expansion is postponed until after the Jetline area has been redeveloped. Link to the report (Swedish) Report. They are still committed to the expansion though.

Even though it's sad to see the expansion again being postponed, remember this has been on the tables for decades now, I must say this makes sense. It will be interesting to see how and what will be built in place of Jetline.
