Theming looks promising, although the STC trains look a bit... Battlestar Galactica to me?

Nice to see that somebody is making use of the text formatting options, I can see you're enjoying them. Never thought I'd defend TPW to this degree, but holding thousands of guests back at one point, only to drop a rope and leave them to their own devices does seem a little reckless though, no...

I thought this too. Don't get me wrong I'm not a mega fan of his, but I don't think he's bitter in this instance as you said! I just watched his video on Voltron and he enjoys his second ride much more and him and Charlotte are singing the coaster's and the area's praises.

I won't lie, the lack of onboard audio has saddened me a little, they showed off a fantastic piece of music that goes with the layout perfectly and we don't get to hear it whilst on ride! Does look rather incredible though. The preshow effects before the launch are goofy as hell but I like it...

Tried to reply to this but my signal wouldn’t let me! Think I mayyy have been right next to you then and didn’t realise! Were you guys in the station when Taron went down the second time at around 16:30 or so? If so, my partner and I were in the air gates for the front row when it happened! We...

At Phantasialand today and have been the last few days, really wishing I’d extended the stay a few days longer and headed to EP but I’ll save it for later! I’ll be cautiously checking YouTube for POVs on the day, I’m still so intrigued about the interior queue and the show scenes more than...

From what we've seen so far I'd say it looks rather fab, I'm really excited for this. I do hope the outerbank speeds up a little bit (as I'm sure it will) but it already looks great. The twisted airtime hill after the splashdown doesn't look quite as snappy as I thought it would but hard to...

The splashdown trims are definitely on, it slows down significantly at that part of the coaster as seen in Silkstone's video.

Not sure about the bright blue on the trains but everything else looks marvellous. I remember the blue in the concept art being a bit darker but I imagine this will fade a little in time so it looks like the old trains a bit more. I can't wait to see what part of the park they burn down in 2026...

Looks absolutely stunning already, I am starting to feel sorry for Efteling though, everything about this attraction is getting leaked prematurely.

I imagine the engineers at Mack know what they're doing so I'm gonna leave it up to them to design things like this.

Oh that’s good, others on the German forums said it looked far from opening. Thanks of the update, that puts my mind at rest a little.

Sounds like today and yesterday haven’t been great in terms of availability. Taron running two trains (I think that’s understandable though given the events of the week) but Talocan and Chiapas closed and not looking like they’re opening soon. Does anyone know what’s happening with these? I know...

A 43 year old employee died whilst doing maintenance work on Taron yesterday. I don't think police have release much yet. https://www.ruhrnachrichten.de/regionales/toedlicher-unfall-phantasialand-bruehl-mitarbeiter-stirbt-achterbahn-taron-w860987-2001151759/

I think like any theme, it's great when it's done well and looks awful when done on the cheap. I think a bog standard western theme is great with the right people behind it, hopefully this falls into that category.

Oh it's... yellow...

This thing looks brutal and I can't wait. I'm not sure if I'll be able to make it this year, think I'll have to wait until 2025 but my god am I jealous of anyone going this year.

Looks rather naff I'd say. It looks like you lose half of the speed from the trims before the final splashdown too.

Wasn't in confirmed that they can't be bothered to blend now? Think the current look is a "stylistic choice". Plus I imagine painting before erection is easier!

Lots of good things in that video that genuinely make me very happy. New theming/refurbed rock work and theming around Colossus, flats being repainted, new toilets (great that they are adding gender neutral ones too), Stealth getting some TLC. These are things that have been needed for years so...
