White track?! On a Merlin coaster?!
Call an ambulance.

Re: Heide Park 2014
I remember looking at B&M shipping consignment tickets last year from a port in Italy to the US.
I think that they manufacturer wherever it's cheapest to manufacturer - taking into account the cost of shipping. It could be the plant in Europe doesn't just do coaster track, so they rent manufacturing as and when they need it. If it's cheaper to use the US and ship, they do. If it's cheaper to pay for it in europe and ****, they do. Probably down to a part by part basis.
Maybe :lol:
Green and white though? Really?

Rcdb seems to have confirmed the wingrider at http://rcdb.com/6667.htm. I doubt rcdb would create a new entry based on rumours solely, so it is likely that they possess a secondary source, I believe.
Well, at least Merlin have ceased their tradition of black/grey coasters (for how long though?), therefore Alton may not acquire a fourth black coaster in 2016, but honestly, why another white and olive coaster? Whilst the GP may not be able to differentiate B&M form Intamin, they will certainly be inclined to identify a coaster as "the blue one" or "the big white one at Thorpe Park". So why are they making all coasters uniform?
Oh well, can't complain about a B&M wingrider which is likely to be Europe's tallest. :--D

If it was Duane who added it, then it would have been something he was sitting on since IAPAA. If it was Derek who added it, it would be from newer information.
In other words, Duane finally has people helping him maintain rcdb. (It was a one-man show for the first decade or so.)

It's a winged coaster and the trains will be bats... Just stating the obvious.

While I would love to see it make a swooping turnaround, around the tower, I think it's to advertise where the coaster is getting build, as Scream is pretty much the star of that area.

Construction is already well underway on this one.
Is that the transfer area being put up?
