Weird, Wacky & Strange Coaster Bits

Re: Wierd, Wacky & Strange Coaster Bits

Neat find! That does look pretty mental, and you're right, the cars are crazy too...

Re: Wierd, Wacky & Strange Coaster Bits

It has padding above you....thats reassuring.
 
Re: Wierd, Wacky & Strange Coaster Bits

If you was sat in that second seat, it would be SO claustrophobic!
 
Re: Wierd, Wacky & Strange Coaster Bits

Now THAT looks like Saw: The Ride. :p
 
Re: Wierd, Wacky & Strange Coaster Bits

So, the park complex that are building Mountain Flyer have this cool water ride just built INTO a waterfall <3

Re: Wierd, Wacky & Strange Coaster Bits

Strange the way they have the waterfall deflect over the top & around the back of the ride, unless the water is actually going down the ride (which it looks like it might be doing). Very cool!
 
Re: Wierd, Wacky & Strange Coaster Bits

That's actually amazing. I'd love to see other photos of it!
 
Re: Wierd, Wacky & Strange Coaster Bits

^So would I! I've actually spent hours these last few days Googling that park because it's a HUGE complex apparently, but, it's very hard to find information on it...

Don't worry though, I'll bring back lootttsss of photos in August ;)

Not exactly weird or wacky, just awesome, but, look at their placement of a Booster!

It reminds me quite a lot of Tibidabo, but, without the Fabbris falling down...

I found this photo of Flight Deck and Canada's Wonderland
i thought it was strange how they put horizontal beams to support the lift hill posts

Re: Wierd, Wacky & Strange Coaster Bits

Urgh, that's hideous. Why would they do that? It looks like a stripped down car, why not just put the seats in?
 
Re: Wierd, Wacky & Strange Coaster Bits

Did the first car of that train catch fire or something? I looked up the ride via rcdb and that front car doesn't even look like it was originally PART of that train, but was taken from a mine-train ride for the hell of it.
 
Re: Wierd, Wacky & Strange Coaster Bits

That is absolutely hideous, why on earth would they do that it must have been functioning ok before?

Here is what the train used to look like:

Re: Wierd, Wacky & Strange Coaster Bits

Ben. is that booster in the same park?

Looks like that zero car was scavenged from the Highway of Death during the Desert Storm invasion of Kuwait. :p

Yeah. Well, it seems to be a complex of a few small "parks" and water parks, but, I can't really tell if they're areas in one park, or different parks... But, yeah, it's the same "place".
 
Re: Wierd, Wacky & Strange Coaster Bits

Cool. Going to be so jealous of you & Jake this summer.
