Given the maintenance/storage bays are underground with the hotel buildings on top I wouldn't expect to see anything of the trains until the park releases some pictures or when it starts testing.
Trains could have been already on site for months or are still not there yet. Its impossible to be certain.

Bold to assume the park will ever release anything about this bloody thing

Will try, have a very low quality cheap phone with terrible camera at the moment as broke main phone. If I spot anything interesting, I will photograph it!

Wow this is epic! I love the zero-g roll with the near miss effect already! But isn't it all going a bit to fast?

Hey Stijn, great u like my animation.
Yes i forgotten to adjust the friction before i recorded the POV, thats sorted now.
I will make a new POV after some more scenery is placed.
That might take a few days (1 week)
Then good luck. But be aware that there are not many spots where you can See something. Only from the outside of the Park, on top of the Colorado and the Pferdekarussel. And maybe through some doors.

Back at hotel after Phantasialand. A great day was had, more details of which in my trip report topic soon. Nothing new to be seen with Fly but there was an unidentified delivery this morning as I arrived. Likely delivery was for hotel as looked to be wooden crates wrapped in plastic. Once dashcam footage has processed, I will share screenshots. For now, as promised, low quality photos! 2 bonus photos of interior of crazy bats as well.
That wall is huge in person though.....

They are all black. I my opinion they look almost even more complicated than the B&M flyer trains.

You have to make an exception for Brian though, he knows everything there is to know about theme parks.Without Sources, no one will belive you

Yes ofcourse i can't tell who my source is.
But everything I said in the passed turned out to be true. Believe me or not. The trains are black. Don't reply on this, just read it and believe me (or not).

Well, the trains used for testing at the vekoma site were also black with maroon-colored seats, and since they also reused the track, that may have been part of the final design (with some extra theming added maybe)
With trains supposedly there, trackwork done, hotel nearing (structural) completion i can't really see how this is will take another 8 months, but this is Phantasialand after all

As promised, dashcam footage screenshots of Tuesdays delivery with bonus shots from evening leaving past FLY. Not many interesting bits to be seen unforunately but was exciting for me to see it in person! Sorry for bad quality of dashcam, it does have a higher quality setting but need the extra memory capacity of the lower quality settings for the long journeys I take with it. May process actual video footage for sharing online but that will have to wait till I'm home early September.

I'm really struggling to get excited by this coaster. I just feel like it's taking forever to be built and every update we get nowadays doesn't showcase anything unbelievably exciting. I'm sure it will be a fun ride and all, but I don't think it's for me personally.
I'm sure that, just like Taron, the theming will make or break the ride. And given their history with that, I have faith that they will nail it.
I just hope it's open for the start of the season in 2020 because I'm gonna be in Cologne the second week of April. Based on where they are at with it (track is fully installed and Hotel is pretty far along), I think it'll probably be open in April at the start of their season. I just hope this being basically a prototype doesn't cause too many delays or issues.
