Dag iedereen,
Ik had contact met Thomas van Caoster-Count en hij had nog enkele vragen over dit speurwerk:
I think there are 2 different coasters: The one from Bakker: It has cars with one light, the three rails of the track are connected with a triangle piece of steel with a circle in it, and the fence has curvy elements.
On the other side I have the picture from Stuij (in the document they write Stuy, but I have some other sources, so I am not sure), the video of Nancy, the picture of Marktheidenfeld, and the video from Traumlandpark and a video of Bielefeld. This monorail has cars with 2 lights on the left and 2 on the right, the 3 rails are connected with round bars and the coaster has a characteristic fence with connected squares.
Especially the different design of the track let me think that this are two different coasters. The text says at some point: …Bakkers Monorail with the old fence…
And there are 2 pictures that are labeled with Bakker that do not match: Somewhere around post 178 and the other one near posting 86. In these postings there is the second version of the coaster, but they are labeled with Bakker.
Is there anywhere a hint why the track should be changed completely?
Or any other hint why the original Bakker coaster should be the same like the others while looking different?
Where can I find the source for this link from Bakker to the other owners in the forum?
==> Ik denk dat Essay_P dit verschil ook al aanhaalde in deze post: klik. En dat FlyingTimo daarop gereageerd heeft: De oude exploitant vertelde me dat "de gondels waren eerst banaanvormig, later zagen ze er uit als autootjes" - maar of ze nu nog zoveel meer gesleuteld hebben, of dat er een tweede Monorail gebouwd is, geen idee :-) (klik)
Dus echt groot bewijs is dit niet dat het het zelfde is, maar het is wel mogelijk...
Other open points that I could not find?
-Why is the Traumlandpark not listed in the history?
=> Gewoon vergeten neem ik aan?
-What is the source for the stay in America (and the for this) There are different years for Stuij in the book “De Achtbaan”: Stuy = 1971-1976
=> Vind ik niet meteen meer terug in het topic, kan iemand mij helpen?
-Is there a source given for the stay in Thailand? (there is a link from Traumlandpark to Oceans Park at rcdb, but I am not sure if this is mentioned in the text.
=> Ja dit is beschreven in deze post. Dus dat hebben we gewoon overgenomen van rcdb.
It would be great if you can look for answers and write me the number of the posting.
