Olympia Looping coming to London this Winter!

[mkingy]

If Olympia Looping goes missing I'm heading over to Gouldy's house because then he'll have Kanonen and Olympia Looping in his back yard.

Be one of the Americans that orders an Irish Car Bomb at a pub and then loudly wonder why everyone is looking at you like they want you dead.

We finally have official confirmation I might be looking into this too much, but in the picture there's a 7 car train... does this mean we'll get 7 cars?

And some more pictures

Not sure where you're seeing a 7 car train. It runs 5 car trains, always has.

I saw a partially covered 5 car train on the storage track

It was originally designed to run 7 car trains but these days often runs a 5 car train operation.



Interestingly I think this bumps Winter Wonderland up to a possible 5 new credits as The other Anton creation Alpine Coaster isn't listed on the website but is definitely on the detailed plan!

Right on the park's own page, which I linked to

But I guess if 5 car trains have been seen covered on site, that's what we're getting. Still very exciting!

^ For me, 5 car trains are still the image of Zonga! Reduced cars due to the ride intensity.

When are we going?

[mkingy]

I think me and Holly were planning a little day trip including Borough Markets for lunch and some other relaxed sightseeing in first weekend of December (3-4 which appears to be a cup weekend weekend where Wolves are playing on Thursday football wise) and then hitting up Winter Wonderland after dinner before it gets to busy and obnoxious.

Wow it's really in the UK now! Yay one dream came true!

Ofcourse Shawn was among the first people to ride it.

It only runs 7 cars on the Oktoberfest in M??nich.

Hooray for the Barth's "Christmas" Looping! Any trip report?
