Mystery Intamin track spotted - potential major new coaster on the horizon?

Spotted on a Discord server recently, allegedly at Stakotra Manufacturing Plant:
1734827403759.png

Main takeaways:
-that is Intamin track
-there are ARBs visible to the right (lift hill confirmed)
-the track on the left has dense cross-ties (likely for a valley that pulls strong positives).

I believe this is a major roller coaster, and there are strong waves that this could truly be something huge. Unsure if this is deserving of a thread, but perhaps this could become the construction thread for whatever this ends up being.
 
Cool, looks quite big.. Could this be Hyperion gauge track? I might be wrong but I think Flacon's Flight is also that same gauge?
 
First thought was that it's the vertical launch coaster for Dream Island but the anti roll backs preclude that

So seems it's currently an unknown project.

Nope - that is a vertical launch coaster. The aforementioned anti rollbacks on one of the track pieces confirms a lift hill.

Okay, and the rumoured new coaster for Djurs Sommerland, would probably be a mirrored Toutatis clone.
So that isn't it either. Or they will put a totally different coaster in that location.
 
Looks dead set to be the new coaster in Cbeebies at towers if you ask me ;)

Have we heard anything new on Grona Lund's expansion? Isn't that scheduled for the next couple of years? I can't remember exactly what kind of coaster was in the concepts, maybe Grona have forgiven Intamin for Insane and are giving them another go?

Concept art showed a launch coaster, with track veeery similar to Vekoma's MK-1100 coasters. About a year earlier, Vekoma posted a concept for a 'trebuchet' launch coaster, which perfectly lined up with the coaster in Grona Lund's concepts layout wise. And the colour these track pieces have would never work with the steampunk-esque theme Grona Lund are going with🥴

To clarify, Djurs stated that they showed the mirrored Toutatis clone as a "this is the kind of ride that we're interested in building" thing, so it may have a completely different layout but would do similar things (such as the swing launch sequence or perhaps the top hat).
 
Paultons Park are building a new area for 2026 with a more thrilling rollercoaster being built as part of it. It is possible that the track could be for that project 🤔

It is more likely that their project would be the first Family-Thrill LSM launch coaster that Intamin makes. The new model that recently got unveiled at IAAPA 🙂

Wouldn't the EU put the Intamin execs on the medieval rack if they did business in Russia at that scale? Not to mention the dire straits of the Russian economy. A big coaster is probably the last thing anybody needs over there at the moment, and in the coming years.
 
Part of me saw this and was like Thorpe Park are gunna rebuild Colossus without us knowing for the 2026 season. But reality hit… is that ever gunna happen. Nope. Anyway, this is exciting nonetheless wherever this may end up.

You would think, Yet there's 3 big Intamin rides opening in Moscow next year (footers are in already), A Zamperla just opened in Omsk and another one is coming to Belgograd next year.

I have no idea how this is happening. But it is.

Sorry, but have i missed that part of the information. So it's just an example of what they would like to be build there.

I understand this, but I also mention there are already some footers poured on site and they are in the same layout as the Intamin Hot Racer Mahuka from Walibi Rhône-Alpes

That certainly seems to be the case, but I think in reality we know very little.

Personally, I'd be surprised if Djurs got anything like Toutatis. The park could do with a coaster with inversions, and perhaps another big thrill ride to compliment Piraten. But something the scale of Toutatis, for its cost, is such a big jump in the park's line up, it just doesn't seem like the best fit.
Then again, I said the same thing about Ride to Happiness and Plopsa, so what do I know ey 😂
