I definitely need to get across to here to ride this and the other stuff, looks so good!

New video from Phantasialand here: @YouTube

Video is focusing on mixing the man-made with natural rock in the surrounding area of the coaster.

Wow. I felt really quite depressed when I heard the theme tune for this ride. Not saying it's bad, but it sounds very sad :lol

[Aidan Lowe]

So as the last day draws nearer until a 3 week closure a new container has appeared on site. Anyone care to guess what it'd be used for? And by the time it re-opens in late November one would expect the landscape to be drastically different with all the work set to continue.

I reckon the trains are in the containers

[Aidan Lowe]

The container is in the picture above, sorry should of said storage tank. Could it be for something for a fire feature perhaps?!

Interesting post over at TPR, could there be a smaller coaster within Klugheim for the smaller guests?

Looks like it`s very likely that we will be seeing a second coaster.

Rumours on Phantafriends.de suggest a Vekoma family shuttle. As some actual support footers appeared at Phantasialand a while back that resembled Vekoma footers.

[Rita Fan]

Mmmmm. Probably a junior boomerang. Kinda like the one paultons is getting. Custom layout. And the track ends at a certain point. Track also resembles junior boomerang track. Pretty much confirms it is going to be a junior boomerang. Wow those deduction skills :lol

The final piece of track has been laid today judging by phantasialand's Twitter page. " onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

[Rita Fan]

I believe that translates to

The long awaited moment has come

[Liam.W]

I believe that translates to

The long awaited moment has come

Twitter translates it as "The long awaited moment has arrived - rail end."

[Aidan Lowe]

Strange they posted that today as track has completed for maybe a week and a half now.

[Rita Fan]

Smiler advocate I left that part deliberately :lol

The 'test train' arrived for Taron last month.

Really can't wait to see these trains

[Capt.Barnacles]

Oooh, I didn't know this hadn't been updated with the latest. From images on NoLimits Exchange, the pull through test with that train has already begun and is still in progress

[Aidan Lowe]

Few pics from Phantasialand while park is currently closed.

An image from Phantafriends.de shows the state of the entire site at the moment. The layout isn't easy to follow but it's there. There's also some annotated speculation detailing the basalt rock additions elsewhere in the area, including the recovering of the River Quest lift building (which has had the rockwork stripped from it) and the otherwise uncovered concrete walls.
