Bosque Magico Coca Cola To Debut Zombie Ride - Spring 2015

It is confirmed that our friends down south in Mexico, Bosque Magico Coca Cola will be getting a new roller coaster for Spring 2015 called Zombie Ride.

Not much is known about it other than that its debuting Spring 2015 in Bosque Magico Coca Cola. It will reach 100 kmph (62 mph) and it will be one of the fastest roller coasters in Mexico.

Bosque Magico Coca Cola is located at:

Eloy Cavazos s/n junto al Parque La Pastora Cd. Guadalupe.
64700 Monterrey, Nuevo Leon, Mexico

Here's a park map:

Premier?

[TTD03]

I wonder if it will go through the station 3 times?

I think it will be same coaster like Superman Ultimate Flight. Because of the heartlineroll and the following brakes on the picture.

[TTD03]

that's the joke
They tried to keep it a secret, but pretty much all enthusiasts know it'll be one of the S:UF clones, except this will have the dual station loading.

Premier rides will ADD and MAKE BETTER capacity? OH MY GOD. That's going to be a really best seller now after the average (BAD!) capacity on this model

how does dual station loading work on a ride like this?

[Coasterkidmwm]

I'm willing to bet it's like Mr. Freeze if you're familiar with that. One side slides over to load while the other side is in the midst of giving a ride.

Hope that explanation was slightly clear.

[Turbo]

^that's what I thought too, but wouldn't that do damage or cause stress to the wheels going that fast over a transfer track separation?

[Coasterkidmwm]

Good point. Hasn't Vekoma already done this though on Expedition Everest?

[Turbo]

at 62 mph?

[mkingy]

Also it'd be at a high G force point so the track will be deflecting more as the train goes over it. Expedition Everest has its transfer tracks on flat sections. Mind you If they support it right at the connection I don't think this would be a massive issue.

[Coasterkidmwm]

Check out this track gap.

[mkingy]

Hah yeah thats what I was thinking, supports either side of the gap and shouldn't be an issue.

[TTD03]

It'll be weird, you'll probably feel 2 bumps though every time you pass over it.

Everest might not have much force across the transfers, but Gravity Max probably does... Having the whole weight of the train drop over that gap. I don't think they had many issues with that aspect

[TTD03]

I feel like it would separate over time though.

Gravity max is a different situation though - it is a vertical drop so the force acting onto the track joint is negligible. You'll notice the bottom part of the connection is also supported immediately to prevent any deflection caused when the train starts to pull up.

[TTD03]

Yea I think gravity max is an entirely different ball game when it comes to this. Perhaps it's the reason they've only built one

I always thought they should have used this dual station on coasters like D??????j????? Vu (now Goliath), it would defiantly speed up capacity on those rides, but I never considered the gaps before.

[Paradox]

^Well that would not help at all considering that Goliath cannot go 1 hour without rolling back on the second lift and then being stuck there for the rest of the day. Also, premier's new trains hurt so much.

[TTD03]

^^ Yea and also the ride isn't long enough where I think it would be very effective, but I could be very wrong

Update
Boque Magico has been kind enough to provide us with a virtual POV!

"ZOMBIE RIDE" @ Bosque M?????gico Coca Cola

- Switch station to increase the capacity.
- Double cycle for more thrill.
- Highest inversion in Latin America.
- Height: 45 meters
- Speed: 100 KM/HR
- First high-tech magnetically-launched in LatinAmerica

Premier Rides, Inc., a global supplier of cutting-edge theme park attractions, has been selected by Bosque Magico Coca Cola to design and build the iconic attraction as part of the park??????s 20th anniversary celebration in 2015. The ??????Zombie Ride?????? will be the roller coaster in Mexico and will feature the highest inversion in Latin America

wow that track work looks terrible. you would think for the video they would make it look smooth. hope the real one isn't that rough.
