Ricky Posted July 2, 2013 Report Share Posted July 2, 2013 So, the new movie themed park is well under way now! I know it's a little late but here are some photos from May 2013, showing the newer style Colossus taking shape: Looking Similar: New style of drop: Moving on to June 2013 now: And for some reason the final inversion is through a tunnel I've got to say, the new style of the clone is much more pleasing to look at, the inlines seem much more open with a fraction of the supports and I can only assume that to be down to the tri-railed track making it strong? Or Intamin realised it looked somewhat ugly to have a support every 5 foot! Photos used from TheParks.it, the rest of th construction galllery can be found here: http://www.theparks.it/cinecitta-world-p1147/avanzamento-lavori-giugno-2013-pt595/ Luke_A 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coaster Posted July 2, 2013 Report Share Posted July 2, 2013 The new style Colossus layout looks brilliant! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexander Posted July 2, 2013 Report Share Posted July 2, 2013 that looks beaut! and I love the colour scheme, wonder what the trains will be like... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted July 2, 2013 Report Share Posted July 2, 2013 It looks so lush without the messy support structure, flip between tri-track and bi-track, and the new first drop could be pretty intense. On the bi/tri track note; why is the airtime hill still bi-track if the whole rest of the ride isn't?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricky Posted July 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2013 Maybe they wanted to keep some originality in it But this version looks so much better than Colossus and it's only half built! Like Alex said, I'm excited to see what the trains will look like Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James_C Posted July 3, 2013 Report Share Posted July 3, 2013 Is that the upgraded 12/13 looper layout...looks sick! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark9 Posted July 3, 2013 Report Share Posted July 3, 2013 Is that the upgraded 12/13 looper layout...looks sick! It's a ten looper which is very similar to Colossus except it has a modified first drop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
planenut Posted July 3, 2013 Report Share Posted July 3, 2013 On the bi/tri track note; why is the airtime hill still bi-track if the whole rest of the ride isn't?! Perhaps that's because on a more negative G section it will not be subjected to the stresses that other parts are, similar to Heineken?

Tom Posted July 3, 2013 Report Share Posted July 3, 2013 I assumed as much; but why not keep it uniform? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricky Posted July 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2013 Is it just the pull through or is it actually testing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inferno Posted July 22, 2013 Report Share Posted July 22, 2013 Please, for the love of all that is holy, let Thorpe refurb Colossus and give her these trains. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricky Posted July 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2013 The pull Through has commenced (not sure if it is finished yet!) This was on July 25th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricky Posted July 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2013 Sorry for the double post, the new Mack super splashy thing is coming along as well - supposedly going to be the longest of its time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benin Posted August 9, 2013 Report Share Posted August 9, 2013 Concepts of the Indoor Intamin Drop Coaster and Mack Supersplash (which is basically a Mack version of those two drop Intamin splash rides) with some fan concepts of the Drop Tower... http://www.cwfans.it/gallery/photo/1234#p1234 I'll be intrigued by the theme of the Drop Coaster, as that'll make or break it, especially as it's completely indoors...

EC! Posted August 21, 2013 Report Share Posted August 21, 2013 I am loving seeing this project take place it looks like its going to be a fun theme park with a good selection of rides, although it still looks odd with the 4 heartlines in tri rail track Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pluk Posted October 11, 2013 Report Share Posted October 11, 2013 If you are going to build an elephant that size you better put a massive slide in its trunk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
