Greetings,

Now posted to the Steve Franks Track Packs pages: The Togo Sisters

Togo International made history with the first stand-up coaster. This pack features King Cobra @ PKI, her sister's Skyrider @ Canada's Wonderland, and Shockwave @ Kings Dominion.

King Cobra comes with two color schemes.

Four tracks in all! Much attention paid to accurate station details.

These tracks are very nice and colorful and just like the photos! I like Shockwave the best :) and the stations are so cool! Another job well done! I'm looking forward to your next release :)

Yes, I like Shockwave best as well with its sky blue structure and alternating green & orange track. If King Cobra had not been the first of the series, Shockwave would have been used for the colorful preview.


Many thanks to Shawn Goode and his correspondence & photos concerning Skyrider.

They are very accurate in layout, inch perfect. Love the colours on them too. Good job on 'em!

Maybe its the draftsman's eye in me, but I love the lines of these steel coasters. Or should I say the overall combination of curves are a treat the eye? A lot of tweaking went into the trackwork to get it just right despite the relatively simple layout. It was a real (and pleasant) surprise to discover that Shockwave's layout was not the same as her sisters.

I am glad you appreciate the work. :wub:

Steve, I can speak for all that we all appreciate the work. Takes a special person to create rides from all over. Even for tracks in my home park I get bored after just making the track. And now that I've gotten RCT2 again I can finally look at these new tracks. :D

I'm just sitting here waiting for your next release. And looking forward to any of your PGA and your Giant Dipper @ SCBB transfers from RCT to RCT2.

Next up is Spinning Mouse by Reverchon.

Two differently painted versions will be featured in the pack: Magic Mouse @ Rotunda Park, UK and Dizzy Mouse @ Wiener Prater, Austria. They were picked for their color schemes.

Hmmm, I always thought B&M made the first stand up coaster? Oh well, I guess I learned something new today.

P.S.: Caw.

I love your work Steve, but I cant download this pack. The link just makes me download index.php. Otherwise, keep up the good work. :D

I just tested the pack. It downloads just fine. Something must be amiss on your end.
