I was in the park Saturday and Sunday, and they've done a really solid job of hiding this from inside the park. If it wasn't for the tower crane (and the view from outside of the park) you'd struggle to know a coaster was even there.
They've done a solid job of the area entrances too, the way in from Berlin looks like a building entrance and the way from Wuze Town looks Steampunk enough to have its own identity, without killing the character of the existing area (which, if I am honest, looked a bit tired compared to the rest of the park).

I found a image on Twitter : (Could there be a 2nd rollercoaster in Rookburgh ?![65024e363d8509d56f501581c1a310c2[1].jpg](https://coasterforce.com/forums/data/attachments/5/5895-afbbc0f88c0c641b52c5a060bd912f5e.jpg "65024e363d8509d56f501581c1a310c2[1].jpg")

Isn't that just a part of FLY but further in the distance? Presumably that white building is close to the back of the area where that part of the track is.
IF there is a second coaster, a Vekoma family suspended one would make sense to make this a similar setup as Taron and Raik.

Well that was obviously always part of F.L.Y. ...
Yes - they've all been finished for quite a while now. Work is now focusing on the coaster sensors/electrics, hotel construction and theming.

What I just wondered when reviewing this aerial photo... Why did they not build the wall higher to the back of the Berlin street?
Surely it is not intended that you look at the ugly backstage from your room on the top floor of hotel Charles Lindbergh?
So I ask myself if the wall becomes higher or are there other plans that prevented this from being done in one go during the construction of this wall...
I stay curious (bleib neugierig)!

Looks very similar to B&M's restraint lock except the latch and lock-in pin here are separate whereas B&M's just move the lack pin out more. I hope after all this time we end up with something more reliable though!

I agree that it's definitely a family boomerang and It won't be going to Phantasialand (because they already have one) but the track is the completely wrong colour for Saven, so maybe it's for another family boomerang we don't know about?

Yes thats possible

Looks like track for a family suspended to me. The booster part with the larger steel casing underneath matches a suspended more than a boomerang. The inclined block break could mean it is the first family suspended with more than 1 train and probably a custom track. I still think there is a big chance a family suspended could be going up in Rookburgh as it matches the theme and is the perfect Vekoma solution for them. They'd be mad not to at least consider it considering the massive cost of Rookburgh.
