    The gap between the rusty CL portal and the administration building has been closed so that our watching-testruns-window is gone [comiker91 on coasterfriends]: It has a somewhat different color than the rest of the rusty wall. Guess it's not yet finished (or needs to be exposed to rainy...

    In case you are referring to the fence we saw in I guess that fence is there, most of it simply hidden behind some of the mess. It is vaguely perceptible, but I think on both sides of the rusty arc support (that low arc support which you can only see from the side) you can identify the...

    The question to ask is: from when is that picture?

    This was also my guess at some point. This would at least explain why there is no significant change in the ticket prices until the end of Wintertraum (something that I always found strange). On the other hand, I'm a bit hesitant to believe that this option is the best for them from an...

    Well, all three are at a high level, but I think you can clearly recognize some differences in their passion for detail and originality. So I don't think it needs to come across as a joke.

    Well, I think that's a very well-know fact and was actually controversially discussed in some forums (probably also here...) and I agree that someone like Elly Beinhorn would for sure have been the less controversial choice (and a woman!). Anyway, let's maybe not get into the discussion again. I...

    BTW, the ticket prices until January 24 (end of Wintertraum) are online. Actually there are individual days with low-price admission all the way through Wintertraum. So, no sudden rise at the beginning of Wintertraum as I suspected earlier. That said, I have to discard my theory that this could...

    Almost... I think you see a bit of it from Matamba. And, what about the views from Kaiserplatz, is it completely hidden behind that gate? I guess not (at least not from the back of Kaiserplatz, that is, the arcade), or am I missing something in my imagination?

    I actually thought the wall extends a bit further behind the doors such that you'd need at least some selfie-stick to have that perspective. Hence my question.

    Very nice detail! May I just ask: where did you get the picture or did you shoot it? If so, how? Was that door open?

    It's hard to believe that they are opening within the next few weeks. If true, why should they refrain from advertising it but instead actually sell low-priced tickets until November 20? Does make little sense to me. Also, is the construction site actually fully finished? From what I got...

    Well, it doesn't actually say that employees are invited to *ride* F.L.Y., they just say "hautnah erleben" (something like "being close to the action") which is a somewhat vague statement. It might mean they ride it, but it could also mean they just visit the station, have a look behind the...

    ...and the story around how this photograph was shot will be told in the next James Bond movie. ?

    By now I'm pretty sure that Phantasialand is planning to open Rookburgh for Wintertraum, probably on November 21. As they offer low-price admission until November 20, I think we can exclude any date before. All the same, if they'd aim for an opening in spring there wouldn't be any need to...

    Movie Park Germany | Movie Park Studio Tour | Intamin Multi Dimension Coaster | 2021

    Doesn't it sound extremely dumb for the GP who's not aware of the Intamin product they are referring to? I mean, that phrase basically claims that all previous coasters in Germany were (at most) one-dimensional. ?

    Do I witness a paradigm change in Phantasialand's policy about tolerating drone flights here? I remember such things typically being removed from youtube within few days. Does that tell us something?

    Looks interesting... The golden cones remind me a bit of the pipes of an organ. With this they clearly go beyond that plain industrial look.

    October would be nice but it just doesn't feel realistic to me at this point - the status of the construction side, the timing regarding the job openings, the possible announcement of Rookburgh on September 18 (followed by the opening of hotel-bookings). Imo it would all fit quite well to an...
