roller coaster

Thought I'd start this thread to ask, what does everyone think will be announced at the IAAPA Europe Expo in Paris next week?

Just seen Amusement Insiders video on the Q2 Stock Holders call. For now, it is said that Canada's Wonderland have green light on the hotel, apparently announcing something on August 14th and there's possibly one or two more coasters (other than Kings Island) in 2020...and it could be a smaller...

Six Flags have just announced that they'll retrack Green Lantern First Flight rather than remove it, to 'improve the ride experience'!

https://planningregister.ryedale.gov.uk/caonline-applications/applicationDetails.do?activeTab=summary&keyVal=PRWA8YNOK8S00 This is the start of many projects...planning! These documents seem to confirm that an Intamin 10 Looping Coaster (same length as Altair at Cinècitta World in Italy) will be...

https://rcdb.com/1195.htm I definitely think somewhere like a Drayton Manor or someone like that could buy this. It's now in storage at Rusutsu Resort in Japan but easily could be shipped to the UK. (Look at the shipping possibly from Brazil to Flamingo Land)

Hi guys. I was just reading through Screamscape when I found this interesting item from quite a while ago that I'm surprised no one has picked up on: Sounds very interesting, especially if it is to carry the same theme as the ride it is replacing! What do you guys think? P.S. Here's the...

Valleyfair have announced the removal of Dinosaurs Alive: Time to guess Bolliger and Mabillard Inverted Coaster????

I wanted to upload this thread, because I wanna see a major thrill investment in 2020 for the park's anniversary but I wanna see what you guys think!

Hi guys. When I was reading through the Thorpe Park future thread, I had a thought. Many parks these days seem to be building more economical additions to attract guests, even in major years. And it's not only Merlin that is doing this. Take Six Flags, for example. Most of the additions added...

Hi guys. I know this is my second thread of the day, but I would be interested to know your thoughts on which roller coasters really divide opinion. What coasters are like Marmite; some people love them, whereas others hate them? I'll get the ball rolling with a few notable examples I can think...

Hi guys. Sorry if there's already a thread like this, but as foreign travel seems to be quite a large part of this hobby, I would be interested to know; what was the first roller coaster you rode outside of your home country/state/region? Mine was The Incredible Hulk Coaster at Islands of...

Hi guys. Sorry if a thread like this already exists or if this is a slightly strange question, but I made this thread to ask if there are any coasters that intrigue you. Not necessarily excite you, but intrigue you. I know this might seem like a slightly strange question, but I'll get the ball...

Hi guys. Sorry if this thread is unnecessary or if there's already a thread like it, but according to a video I just watched on Taylor Bybee's YouTube channel, Lagoon in Utah are likely building a new roller coaster for 2020. Construction work is well underway and little is currently known about...

Hi guys. I was just having a read through Screamscape when I found this: This would be a good fit for the park, if you ask me! They could use another decent size steel coaster from the looks of things! P.S. Sorry if this already has a thread. Also, here's the Screamscape link...

Surprised I didn't find a thread for this, but according to Screamscape, Carowinds is set to get a new Mack Rides Double Launch coaster in 2019! http://screamscape.com/html/carowinds.htm This is quite the leak, especially if it turns out to be true! Also yay a proper Mack in the US!

https://trca.ca/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/11-17-Agenda-Package-Executive-Committee_Jan12_2018-Merged-Agenda.pdf tl;dr: CW is planning to build a new roller coaster for 2019/2020. Right now, they've only submitted the application for moving some water to make way for the ride. The map shows...

Oaks Amusement Park in Portland, Oregon has announced that they're getting a Gerstlauer Eurofighter next year! Based on the stats they've given, it appears to be a clone of Hydrus at Casino Pier: But, they're letting the public name the coaster(oh what could possibly go wrong...)! Here's the...
