It's a Wild Mouse, with huge Vekoma/Arrow style track...

Yeah, been on it and it's rubbish really. It just doesn't do very much, and is not very "Wild Mouse" like at all.

Pretty sure it's by Senyo Kogyo. The track is basically the same as the two big coasters there, as are the cars and restraints. It opened at the same year as Columbia Double Loop as well, so it would make sense that it was the same manufacturer.

Epicly painful for sure! But honestly I think it could easily be neither...I'm just keep picturing one of those covered flat rides with the continuous train.

Holy over-sized signature, Batman!

It would just be one of those flat rides. But, maybe a bigger one.

Lets face it, if those flat rides didn't have a continuous train, they would just be Go Gators, and we'd all count them.

^Haha, sure....I mean, you would count it.

As for the signature, yeah I just kinda threw it together last night before going to sleep. Fixed it up a bit now.

If that's a cred I don't see why not...

I personally would not count that as a cred but I know many of my fellow CFers would.

It's still too big, but, whatever, no-one around here listens to any of the rules unless they're against long established members so!

I half suspect that's on there as an interest piece. It's blatantly a ripoff of a Schwarzkopf Bayern Kurve.

Re: Wierd, Wacky & Strange Coaster Bits

Would that classify as a steel coaster, or do we have to apply an entirely new category here? Concrete coasters? Would that be conkies in short?

It just looks like the railway workers got a bit bored and went a bit mental! It looks great! :p

Does anyone know if there are any other coasters of this style out there?
