Happy Valley Chengdu 2017 - B&M Dive and GCI Wooden

[Paradox]

For 2017 Happy Valley Chendgdu will build a massive expansion in their new "Silk Road" themed area. This area will have a new B&M dive coaster and a GCI wooden coaster.

I like how the old picture makes the GCI look small. :P This looks good - hope it stays that way.

So does the B&M have like a 300ft long splash pool or something?

The GCI has gone vertical!

Are all of their themeparks built next to giant apartment complexes?

This fact is so RCT2! Based off on a random scenario, kind of!

They don't really have a choice. It would be easier for them to avoid smog than to avoid vertical living stacks.

Anyway I do feel the power of China.

I remember when Fireball was "The only wood coaster in China". Now it looks like GCI or TGG are building one in every Chinese park

^I think China is remarkably already the second best country for wooden coasters. Fireball, Dauling Dragon, Time Travel, Fjord Flying Dragon, Wood Coaster @ Knight Valley, Python in Bamboo Forest, and six Jungle Trailblazers? And now this GCI too? Not a ton of variety yet but that's quite the collection.

Work continues on the GCI





Here are the plans for the area showing the layouts of both coasters:

So these are the confirmed track colors! We also have a name now for both rides. According to RCDB, the dive coaster will be named Flying over the Western Region and the GCI will be named Desert Rally.

I personally like the color scheme. So much so that I already used it in a project.

^^ Wow that might be a cross between Kraken and Mako?

The GCI is looking great. You can see the tunnel where the dive coaster will go through.

Oh goody the weird concrete bridge thing again. Any bets on if they'll paint it camo like they did for the intamin?

Wow massive! And how long (Looks insanely long for a GCI!) d'you guys think will that be?

[Paradox]

More progress on the area!

Inspiring! Looks like the Mega Cyclone Turnaround, too.

Needs more dive machine.

Flat rides going up. Still no sign of the dive coaster yet.
