Fantasiana | Wiener Looping 2.0 (relocated) | Mack Stryker Coaster | 2025

Looking at the screen grabs of the POV that appeared online (see below), it definitely isn't the same coaster as the Vienna one.

Fantasiana Erlebnispark kündigt einzigartige Big-Dipper-Achterbahn von Mack Rides für 2025 an

Der Fantasiana Erlebnispark Strasswalchen arbeitet an einer neuen Achterbahn zur Eröffnung in der Saison 2025. Für die Neuheit setzt der Freizeitpark auf den Hersteller Mack Rides. Es soll eine einzigartige Fahrt werden, für die jedoch eine alte Attraktion weichen werden muss.<img...

Seems like they also stressed this out on the IAAPA show floor (from the link above):

Those responsible emphasize that the ride is explicitly not the Big Dipper roller coaster originally planned for the Wiener Prater, but an in-house production for Fantasiana. The "Wiener Looping" in the Prater was announced for opening in 2023, but the project had to be stopped due to illegal demolition work.

Mack materials are already arriving at the park;

K this thread is a little wonky but could the Vienna Looping have been uncancelled? Demolition recently resumed on the nightclub after a year and the coaster is still in storage at the port. Plus Fantasiana has stressed that their new coaster is an entirely different project.

One of my friends curiously decided to inform the park that their own building was being demolished (?) and received this slick reply;

Was always not cancelled, the parts are already onsite in storage, just in limbo until the legal situation was sorted around the demolition. As Lofty posted above the Fantasiana coaster is not the same one.

Got those pictures on it in storage?

Is the track in storage on site? I've looked for it the other day but could'nt find it.

Seems like the image was scrubbed from a bunch of different places, somebody doesn’t want anyone knowing that the project is alive again. Wouldn’t be surprised if we get a request to delete it, but this is the internet for you and nobody’s job/rep is on the line this time. For reference it’s in storage at a port rn in Vienna.

According to RCDB it's supposed to open in September 2024. No idea, where they got the date from.

This is currently what the site looks like now, as per park staff we should start seeing foundation work/support arrival take place soon;

Had to see it myself today! They've dug the trench for the first drop.
I took pictures but I can't upload them, unfortunately I always get an error message.

Very excited to finally see it happening

Edit: I finally was able to upload the picture of the construction site. It appears to be the trench from the first drop. Also visible on the left side is the ghost train/house. The Lift and first drop will go over this building and pathway in front of it.
