Are the Millennium Flyers a done deal already? That'd be cool

Can't wait - perhaps the first time Holland gets a world class coaster. That is, unless Toverland "pulls a Flying Dutchman" and delays the ride just like De Efteling did last year

yes every new GCI Wooden get the Millenium Flyers Trains . they looks like really smooth and confortable .

Netherlands got some very neat coasters like goliath and Xpress ( RNRC Layout ) .

I'm also looking forward to ride the New Water Coaster at Efteling .

I Love Efteling and if the new Wooden Coaster are good i might go to toverland yay .

Re: 2007 : Toverland ( Netherlands ) new GCI Wooden

I don't agree with you here - I think the RNRC-thingy, Xpress, is quite a bore. Goliath is quite alright though, but not world-class.

The Millennium Flyer trains are really amazing though - wonderful trains. If the new wooden coaster is even slightly like Tonnerre, it'll be awesome! [smilie=1,3,17]

Tonnere is a piece of jack hammering crap next to almost any of the GCIs running Millennium Flyer trains... I wouldn't wish Tonnere on my worst enemy - unless they had to be strapped into it for hours on end with no chiropractic treatment

Come again?
Tonnerre is the best wooden coaster I've ridden - ever! The roughness is not annoying but adds to the wildness IMHO.

Re: 2007 : Toverland ( Netherlands ) new GCI Wooden

Well, I have no problem with riding more woodies, of course
Which one would you suggest? The Voyage is quite high on my wishlist.

But I do think I've ridden my fair share of woodies with about 60 of them

It looks cold and with only two guys, it's going to take forever to build.

In Europe, Balder is the best - Outside of Europe, Balder is the best...
