ShakeShack Posted June 13 Report Share Posted June 13 This is how Pico construct their theming. Once it's all in place, a team come in and fill all the gaps/patch the walls, paint and finish to match the rest of the exterior. Speeds up install times drastically. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New display name Posted June 14 Report Share Posted June 14 1 hour ago, Gazza said: Who are Vekoma? Oh it's the same thing as Vekoma Rides Manufacturing B.V. No, If you do a google search for PICO. Results: 1. PICO GLOBAL 2. PICO (financial company) 3. PICO (a leading VR company (so they say))ny 4. PICO Australia 5. PICO TECHNOLOGY I have to go down to result 16 before I see Pico Play. Parkz forums reaches further then just enthusiast, who know these things and the non-enthusiast would have trouble if they wanted to know who PICO are but would have no problems finding out what you were talking about if you just said Vekoma with google. Case closed. //s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a user doesn't understand that, they could simply ask & it would be answered the same way I originally answered you. But, instead, you seem to be hardwired to make a fuss out of any miniscule thing, so you've got to snarkily make it about some key point that only matters to you and you alone.

mattcrombie Posted June 15 Author Report Share Posted June 15 Back on topic. Does anyone know how long this coaster will go for? It seems smaller than expected to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems smaller than expected to me I'm assuming some of the indoor sections will be slower moving + the time spent on the turntable will add up to a decent ride length Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
themagician Posted June 15 Report Share Posted June 15 1 hour ago, mattcrombie said: Does anyone know how long this coaster will go for? I don't think any of those details have yet been confirmed by the park and there aren't any satellite images recent enough to be able to accurately measure the coasters length. I can't remember the source, but I believe the source is around 600-700 metres long (comparable to Motocoaster and Jet Rescue, but not those kind of speeds) and I'd suspect the ride time could be a couple of minutes because of the show scenes and the train using the inclined turntable a couple times. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New display name Posted June 21 Report Share Posted June 21 I could be wrong but it looks like they are holding off on installing the last bit of track while they need crane access. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sammus77 Posted June 22 Report Share Posted June 22 Do we know if they will install timber slats on the coaster track? I am assuming not and would have expected it would be installed pre delivery? Shame if not, would have looked incredible! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red dragin Posted June 22 Report Share Posted June 22 It's a Jeep, not a train, so timber sleepers would look off. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was just curious as some of the concept art had the slats on the track, and some other recent vekoma family coaster installs that are not ‘trains’ still had the timber in the tracks.
