Favourite and most hated rollercoaster train

Also those stupid things of the Jungle Coaster at Legoland. Most self-concious I've ever felt on a ride.

Try farting in one... it's really difficult to blame it on someone else when there's only four people in the car... :oops:

Superman: Ride of Steel (SFNE)
The old trains were beautiful, and I'm sad to see them go, even with the horrible restraints.

Most hated:

Primeval Whirl
I can feel the pain just thinking about this ride.

Favs:

1)B&M Mega coaster restraints (god they are incredibly comfortable)

I mean they give you a feeling that when you hit those 0 G airtime hills, you are going to fly out of your seat

2)B&M OTSR: VEKOMA PAY ATTENTION, THIS IS HOW YOU MAKE OTSR!

3)B&M Flying restraints: I mean, these are so comfortable, I probably would make a chair out of one and use it for my car seat.

4)Eurofighter: dont even get me started on how comfortable these are. THEY PUT ALL OTHER (excluding B&M) OTSR TO SHAME!

HATED


1) Vekoma OTSR: These things are so God **** uncomfortable, I had to go see a **** chiropractor after getting off of them AND THE WORST COASTER WITH THEM IS NINJA AT SFOG!

2)TOGO Stand ups: HFS (Holy F*CKING SH*T) These are painfull, I mean, if there was one person in line for it, I wouldn't ride it it is so painful.

3)Seat dividers: Im not a short guy by any stretch of the imagination (6' 4") and these make it impossible for me to enjoy 90% of the coasters that have these in them.

4)Vekoma SLC: I mean, HFS these coasters are horrible****ass! They have potential, but they just don't deliver.

I don't get it, B&M Flyer restraints are SO uncomfortable... It's one large piece of rubber with just enough space for your head to poke through being brought down on your chest, which you're then made to lie on with all your body weight pressing down on you...

How is that comfortable? Fisting would be more comfortable.
 
But WHY? It's just a sheet that suffocates you. Explain to me why it's comfortable, what's comfy about it?

It isn't really bad for what it is. It's certainly a bit restrictive, but it's not nearly as badly designed as say, a Zamperla flyer...
 
I didn't mind the Zamperla ones! They were uncomfortable sure, but, they didn't slice my neck open.


Those coasters suck for a LOT of reasons though :p

Well, I can't see why it'd slice your neck open. I rode Superman a few times last summer and was fine. Maybe it's you. :p

Dueling Dragons.
Excellently themed for inverted trains, and the restraints (as all B&Ms) are comfy.

There aren't any trains that I really hate, but I'm not very fond of Vekoma SLC ones. They just seem unnecessarily huge.
 
Favourite:

KumbaK trains on Python, they look ****ING HOT!!!! Comfy too, and pretty smooth... apparently
p13908.jpg


Worst:

Morgan trains used on Vekoma Coasters (unless they're Vekoma trains, I'm not too sure, but I heard somewhere that they were Morgan?! Little Help?) Either way, they're hideous

^Lol, I've been on Super Wirbel. It wasn't that bad. Still rough, but not the worst clone.

I've never been on it, but the trains are widely used on Vekoma coasters, they're horribly cramped and a tight squeeze, even on me, and I'm 8 stone! The harnesses are also too low down, and press down on your shoulders, which is horrid.

They look quite stylish, but in reality they're just plastic, rough, cramped and painful, which is why I dislike them.... Greatly.
 
I loves the trains on Air, so comfortable!
p8183.jpg


And the trains on Baco
p19915.jpg


But especially the trains they ran on the old Southport Cyclone.
p16456.jpg

They were like little sofas!


Really don't like the trains on Corkscrew.
p11313.jpg

What were they thinking?

Not too much of a fan of the trains on Indiana Jones at Paris.
p22792.jpg

Sure, they look great. But they nearly killed me. Especially as I was about 10 or 11 when I went on it.
Backwards.
