Wiener Prater | Wiener Looping | Mack Stryker Coaster | 2025

It's interesting to hear that the famous Schwarzkopf "Wiener Looping" shuttle coaster, also known as the "Bullet," is reportedly leaving Mexico and returning to Europe.

Sadly this is wrong. Yes the new coaster at the Prater in Vienna has the project name Wiener Looping, but this has nothing to do with that old Schwarzkopf coaster. That Schwarzkopf coaster will stay in Mexico and the new coaster Prater will be a Mack Big Dipper
 
Could someone remind me why both of these Mack coasters are actually discussed in this thread? Was there actually a point in time where it has been considered to sell the coaster planned for Vienna to Fantasiana or was this just us confusing the two projects which, however, evolved totally independent of each other?
 
I'm wondering about the opening day of wiener looping as I'll have the opportunity to pass by Vienna in September. RCDB still lists September but I couldn't find any recently put out information that would confirm this. Anyone who've been to Prater recently?

I don't know what the current construction progress is of Wiener Looping. But when i was in Vienna 2 months ago, footer construction wasn't even finished. I think they stopped construction because of the summer holidays.
So i don't think this coaster will be operational already in september.
 
This is how it looked when I was there last night.

Mods any chance we could just pick a few sacrificial posts to shift into a new thread to talk about the Prater one separately to the Fantasiana one?

Right - have done my best to fix this. Sorry it's taken so long - this thread completely slipped me by. I have tried to split all Fantasiana posts off into their own thread, but there may be some strange ones that straddled both. Any that are obviously in the wrong thread, let me know and I'll sort.
 
RCDB says there's 2 due to open in 2025 - https://rcdb.com/4926.htm - but this is the only one I've seen discussed. Is there actually 2 being constructed?

Starting to look into when to visit next year, obviously dependent on any new creds being up and running.
