Ok but how desperate you have to be to voluntarily fly from another country to go to Thorpe?

They removed the track pieces so they could get construction vehicles onto the site.

Thought this was a joke until I saw that drone video. I'm actually surprised track has appeared on-site as early as it has.

I hope someone checks out the B&M track manufacturing plant in Ohio. It'd be nice to see more pieces of this track there.
I, for one, welcome our new RMC overlords.

Is it just me or does that track look the *exact* same color as Valravn, minus the silver spine stripe?

What are these for?

Can someone explain to me why this is being referred to as 'ziz?' I'm out of the loop here.

The name Ziz refers to a biblical beast that ruled the air. It would complete the trio of Behemoth (land monster) and Leviathan (sea monster)

If you look incredibly crefully in these videos, you will be able to see that track has been installed within the tunnel:

Any predictions on how wide the trains will be based on the tunnel width?

Canada's Wonderland is in desperate need of a good coaster. It's too bad that they settled for another slow B&M.

It'll be good for getting people into the park. Dive coasters seem to do a really good job of making a spectacle.

I don't understand the hate for dive coasters. They're really fun and they're great crowd pleasers. They don't need to make you grey out to be good and fun!

What's even more interesting is that this is rumoured to be not just any old dive coaster, but a Giga dive coaster.
