Unknown Coaster Stored at Parc de la Vallee

Guten Tag,
Spent the morning at Parc de la Vallee today, had a nice time all round. Upon leaving we passed a maintenance area and immediately spotted a rusty set of tracks all packed up together. Photo attached.
Does anyone what it is, where it's from, model etc? Would love to know!
As they say in France, well sometimes, Merci!

Ooh fun!
I am a not an expert, strictly guessing here-
but with the type of track and tube rails my guess is a wild mouse....
But when I was looking up this park I see they have a City Jet. And a couple of those are gone for good, so this could be one of the closed ones bought by the park and being used for parts?
 
Update!
Last night me and my partner were trying to nail down a make & model. We concluded Mack Powered Coaster from the male/female track ends and the drive plate which is off centred.
Again down another rabbit hole we eventually seemed to uncover that it's owned by the people that own the park but it was on the travelling circuit.
To make it short we believe it's the ex Kansas City-Express from Karls Erlebnis-Dorf Plech now owned by Thierry Montaletang.

Merci for the contributions xo
 
Great detective skills @VonRolland!

Slightly unrelated, but can I quickly ask; what do you mean by male/female track ends? I’ve never heard that terminology before, and it seems odd that coaster track would be gendered!

Why thank you!
Male/female track ends either protrudes (male) or is recessed (female) the male ends sit in the female ends and align the track perfectly.
Hope you understand what I'm trying to say :)
