Posted July 2, 201312 yr comment_162396 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/
July 2, 201312 yr comment_162417 that looks beaut! and I love the colour scheme, wonder what the trains will be like...
July 2, 201312 yr comment_162421 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?!
July 2, 201312 yr Author comment_162423 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
July 3, 201312 yr comment_162435 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.
July 3, 201312 yr comment_162501 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?
July 22, 201312 yr comment_163821 The trains for the Intamin multi-looper are testing! Surely... no... it can't be... is it?! *curveball*
July 22, 201312 yr comment_163867 Please, for the love of all that is holy, let Thorpe refurb Colossus and give her these trains.
July 30, 201312 yr Author comment_164405 The pull Through has commenced (not sure if it is finished yet!) This was on July 25th.
July 30, 201312 yr Author comment_164406 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.
August 9, 201312 yr comment_165050 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...
August 21, 201312 yr comment_166103 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
October 7, 201311 yr Author comment_170095 Apparently this park will feature a giant Elephant or something? From ThemeParksItalia
