i drew up the initial plans for this ride as i was in charge of the maintenance of the cyclone for nearly twenty years.worked with two indian guys for a couple of weeks showing them how to build and maintain the structure/track.they brought me a bag of indian tea as thank you!.would love to visit this sometime!

i Was in charge of the maintenance of the original cyclone and worked with the two Indians that came over,I drew up the first rough plans that were then sent to my bosses at Blackpool who then put it through autocad.was supposed to have gone and supervised the construction but was building another coaster at the time.looks very good and close to the original,collars are a different dimension and original track was thick on the outside of the bends but a very good job,love it!!

Rob - you've absolutely made my day. I grew up in Blackpool and although The Pleash is my home park - it was only an hours drive to Southport.minwas gutted when they demolished the Cyclone. How bizarre that a clone should appear in India (though it lacks the twisted lift hill ). Awesome Stuff!
@JimmyBo4x431510 жыл бұрын
Why would you ever clone Cyclone from Southport?!?!?! I'd say it's not an "exact" clone since it doesn't have the crooked lift hill!

Rode it today.I have not tried the UK one though.But my experience with it was not that good.I would highly recommend management to improve the safety measures of the riders."IT DOES NOT FEEL SAFE from any point of view".The ride with jaw dropping speed on 90 Degree "L or V " shaped WOODEN structure is not safe and customer experience for most of the family guys and children are " We will never try this again".Overall NICCO PARK is a back dated amusement park.People coming to Calcutta and the locals deserve better and safer rides.

Looks like a tamer, slightly abbreviated version of the Phoenix at Knoebels. It's also a lesson on how to build a woodie economically although time will tell if that type of structure, usually associated with Jet Stars, Wildcats and Fitzers can stand up to the added strain of the heavier, multiple cars needed for wooden coasters.
