(eap) The family thrill roller coaster announced for 2024 and currently under construction at the Drayton Manor Resort in England (see EAP 2/2023) will be implemented by Liechtenstein-based manufacturer Intamin Amusement Rides. The roller coaster is part of a multi-million-pound investment plan to drive the development of the theme park, which belongs to the French Looping Group, in the coming years. The new roller coaster will feature lift and launch elements.
As this year’s novelty, the park opened “Thomas & Percy’s Submarine Splash”, a flume ride in the “Thomas Land” themed area. ■
