[2026] Bluey Coaster in CBeebies Land

owenstreet7 said:
I would arguably say what Towers needed to explore would've been to update the seating for Runaway Mine Train so it's got a 0.9m-1m height requirement. I think having it at 1.1m is counterproductive due to the fact that younger children and families may not be able to ride where they used to.

Easily solved by a phone call to Mack requesting the new trains available on Alpenexpress and boom 0.9m restriction is back baby.

Can't help but feel a spike/backwards coaster rumour is another attempt to make this ride seem more interesting/get more interactions on social media. A backwards riding coaster in CBeebies Land would just be an extremely strange addition (though I concede the type of daft nonsense Towers would do because of the "success" of Mandrill Mayhem in the family market).
 
Interestingly, it is marked as a "family" coaster on the RCDB;

Certainly looks like it's going to be more substantial than we all expected!

Edit: Just realised that Octonaughts is marked as a family coaster as well. Nevermind lol.

Maybe you take a different route on lap 2 using a switch track?

IF it has that helix / figure 8 I doubt it would have a switch track and allow it to loop the track a few times, as I would ask why is there a lift hill, as this loop would need to give enough energy to the train to complete it or it would risk stalling, essentially making that lift hill worthless (unless maybe it loops through the lift hill, however that is already built and it doesn't appear to have any switch tracks.

also have zierer ever made a coaster with a switch track which moves during operation, they are quite complex and require a lot of control, R&D and complexity.

If I am remebering Verbolten at Busch Gardens Williamsberg does that has another complex element.

RCDB mark kiddie coasters as coasters with restrictions or height limits so only children can ride can be sometimes exceptions but thats the general rule of thumb if its marked kiddie you likely not gonna be able to go on it.

And Family is if everyone can ride

B-a-a Express at Europa is marked as a kiddie coaster, but adults can ride alone.

Which is why I said there are exceptions but general rule if you see it as kiddie on RCDB anticipate you are not going to ride and if you do then it would be a nice surprise like Jellikins you can ride but only if your below maximum height restriction

Yeah, I am aware, I am not saying its not possible, more that with the current track which has been installed I would think it is quite unlikely. (Primarily because the lift hill would be a waste of money unless they can reuse it in the loop, which as there is no switch they can't.

Also as benzin pointed out it is an intamin not zierer as the part where I was talking about research was more that zierer would have to develop all of the complex saftey and control systems at probably a large cost.
