Paultons Park: General Discussion

Not just me not into the single rail coasters then, the people of Walibi Holland have spoken... ;)

Reviews of YOY have been mediocre at best. Other single rail coasters have proven much more popular - the standard model RMC is phenomenal and Mahuka is apparently also excellent. I'm far from convinced either a Raptor or a Hot Racer would be a sensible choice for Paultons though.

Standard Layout Raptors are really fun I have done Railblazer really snappy coaster.

Wonder Woman Fligbt of Courage ANZ Jersey Devil Coaster though fun are not quite as snappy but are longer rides
 
I feel a single rail coaster would be a poor choice for Paultons. Sure it would get lots of attention, but throughputs aren't really adequate meaning it's not a futureproofed attraction for if the park's guest numbers do increase over the coming years.

I'd hope they might go for something a little more traditional; the Intamin Family LSM coaster posted above would be ideal!

Jersey Devil Coaster has pretty high capacity at a very busy park it rubs 3 trains and has a rolling station to keep line moving and your not allowed to bring bags into the queue

So wouldn't have bad capacity
 
The Intamin LSM family coaster looks pretty dull, I'm not sure it's the step up the park needs. At least a single rail would look the part and be more marketable

Hmm... I believe this coaster model can look incredible and well themed along with a fantastic ride experience. It's basically Cheetah Hunt at Busch Gardens Tampa Bay although that was built a while ago.

I've heard Hiccup's Wing Gliders at Epic Universe might be the very first ride of that particular model and that looks stunning.

I'd second that one, I think the single rails wouldn't work for the future as that coaster could be a repeat of what Peppa Pig World was 15 years beforehand. This is potentially the park's signature coaster and possibly equivalent to Nemesis at Alton Towers in terms of the draw (not necessarily the intensity)

The rule surrounding no bags in the queue and lockers beforehand is an alien concept unless you're in the states.

With the bags being in the station along with it being predominantly a family park in the vein of Plopsaland or Chessington where there's children involved, capacity could be a lot lower as there could be a lot of variables for operations.
