This coaster looks awesome, it's gotta pull some great forces in those loops, expecially considering how much speed it needs to get around all five!
Are there any other Schwartzkopf loopers that use the two-rail track? If you look in the background of the last picture, the lead into one of the blocks has two-rail track.
I wanna ride!

here I still have an onride video: www.myvideo.de/watch/953408and here I still have a few technical data: constuction 1985 - 1988 build time 1988 - 1989 weight 900t base 86,5 x 38,5m highway height 32,5m rail length 1.250m idea and constuction Rudolf Barth and Werner Stengel The Olympia Looping had the world premiere to the October Fest in 1989 in Munich. The maximum speed amounts to 100 km/h and is controlled by 2 lifts and is steered electronically. The block system is protected twice and has a voucher and release circuit which controls at the same moment both lifts. The lane(railway) can with 20 to 28 persons. The Brake arrangement(enclosure,appendix) is fully automatic, even with power failure. Altogether 4 waiting fields are inserted which guarantee an absolute security. The train drives 48 km/h in the end breaks and then gets afterwards with 2 ms / second to the railway station.The maximum g values are 5.2 in the vertical and +/-0,5 in the horizontal level(plain). (G = own body weight) The construction time amounts to one week and with 10 mechanics to it 200 t crane and 2 forklift trucks a 6 t are demanded. While loading by railway 50 train waggons are loaded with 20 large room containers, again with a special container. Containers are particularly advantageous, because only such a fast loading will be possible. The transportation takes place with company own articulated vehicle engines. Per season 6-8 festival grounds are charged.
