Later that evening, after my dinner, I headed down to see Springbank Park and it's suspicious coaster track. When I arrived at the fence, I saw some uncovered B&M tracks! I was excited and climbed the fence. When I entered, I saw not only B&M tracks, but I realized, that there were two different types of B&M's. One sit down or stand up, and one inverted. And with the Multi-Billion dollar company. The new tracks didn't come to the park painted, in fact, Springbank Park even has their own Paint Supply's building! Before I got caught by security, I snapped a couple of shots.

I'll take more shots of the complete coaster soon!

I bet this ride will kick butt, but still not as much as Chuck Norris.

BTW: Where's your lower body? It's like Poltergeist all over again!

What catwalk tab/objects are you using here? I ask, because I'm having flickering problems when I use Phantage's Catwalks, as the trains pass the objects. (Strange little see-through problem.) I wondered if you use a different set?

Not to say anything bad about the current park in progress of course... Sure, their nice, but I'm surprised that the catwalks are used so much, in general. Personally, I don't like them because of the strange action involved between the catwalks, the track & trains. How people can stand it, it's beyond me. I'd use them if the reaction between the objects and the coaster was eliminated.

Standing 295 feet above the ground, blasting 106 mph, this is Springbank Parks' First and Tallest coaster! THIS..IS...CALIBER!!!

Situated on the Midway Strip, you'll have to walk across a small bridge to get to this starting platform:

Are you ready to blast 295 feet upwards then spiraling on your way back down?

Up and down we go, these massive airtime hills create an outstanding -2 g's!

This coaster will pump your adrenaline to the max!

But before I leave, Springbank Park has just added some features to their entrance building:

You're awesome at making custom supports. Can't wait to see how the ride will turn out.

I think we all have that problem with the catwalks...it sucks, but sometimes we just have to deal with the duller things in life. *SIGH* <_<

yeah, philcar1994 it's all just 8 cars. Open it, go under 'rides' click 'edit ride stats', go to your coaster, and click "Train Type"

Thanks both!

Cheers

Very nice. I like your supports, and I especially like Calibur's station.
