Nice! It's interesting to see the oval station/brake/lift layout.

By those angles it looks like B&M is hopping on the wonky elements train.

Wouldn't it be funny if it just went straight into the brakes once it points back toward the lift hill :lol:

Trims on a decline are unusual for B&M right (outside of MCBRs and predrops)? I can't think of one that I've noticed.

^That trim is at the zero grade, not a decline.

DCS, the B&M's I know of that have a decline trim are:
Raptor of Gardaland (the dip between the first and second inversion)
Wildfire of Silver Dollar City (first drop)
Talon of Dorney Park (exiting the zero-g roll)
Kraken of SeaWorld (exiting the zero-g roll)
Superman Krypton Coaster of SFFT (exiting the zero-g roll)
Medusa of SFDK (exiting the zero-g roll)
Mantis or Rougarou during the first drop (although I don't think they're using this one anymore on Rougarou)

That being said, you definitely don't see them on moderns very often. Raptor was their first winger and because they wanted to use a magnet trim, they had to stick it on the only part of the layout that was straight for any period of time. The rest are classic multi-loopers so who knows what was going on.

GerstlCrazy, I forgot about Talon and Mantis, hadn't ridden the rest and therefore it was less likely for me to remember their trims. Thanks for the info
