[2026] Bluey Coaster in CBeebies Land
A coaster is still a coaster big or small. Doesn't matter would rather have a new coaster than notMy reaction to a bunch of grown men salivating over a kids coaster that happens to have a longer layout that first thought.

I can see it being a hit with the kids tbf. Looks bigger than I thought it was going to and seems at upgrade on Octonauts? It looks taller, not sure whether it is or not though

Yeah it’ll be slightly taller.

If the posts on this forum are your definition of salivating you must have a very dry mouth…
There are Egyptian mummies moister than 99% of posts on the topic.

I dunno, I've always found "wet" to be an apt descriptor for some peeps round here.If the posts on this forum are your definition of salivating you must have a very dry mouth…

Greener than a Saturday night... neat! I dig the colour scheme.

Looks at the last 38 pages of fanboyspaffI wonder what made them hide that on the planning application given that it's not exactly a world's first feature or anything?
I think their reasons are self evident.

My thought also. Seems like such a pointless thing to do.So there is a bonus helix after all!
I did not see that coming... I wonder what made them hide that on the planning application given that it's not exactly a world's first feature or anything?
I know people say "Alton have done this before" but to my knowledge they only intentionally did it once before, and that was to hide the inversion record on The Smiler.
On other occasions its been because they actually did alter the design after submitting the planning application.
But this also looks deliberate as noted by the kink in the track. But why...?

To keep the thoosies entertained in the closed season?
Seems they only plausible reason
Unless…. No…. It can’t be….
There is a hidden structure to be built in the middle. The helix enters in. Stops. Goes onto some sort of, washing machine type element. Then, there will be a highly themed tunnel sending riders back round the track.
I knew this day would come.

I don’t think they did hide it, I suspect they just hadn’t settled on the layout and needed planning permission for the theming.
I know historically Towers have hidden stuff for big SW’s but in this case I suspect it was just something simple like that.

You know this coaster could be considered the entrance way coaster it will be the first coaster you can see as your coming through
It looks really good. The colours do fit in better then Blue would.

Looking at the length of the station, I'd say the train length could be fairly substantial. You can see the rear air gates on the left of the image, and they could well extend further to the left. Certainly looks to be longer than Octonaughts' train, that's for sure, and Zierer's website states that Force coasters can accommodate up to 14 cars.It looks more substantial fully constructed than I thought it would!
Out of curiosity, do we know how long the train will be for this? Some of the Zierer Force coasters have quite long trains!

I'm presuming that that's not how the station will look when it opens? Looks quite bleak if anything.Looking at the length of the station, I'd say the train length could be fairly substantial.
