Fan of Waterloo's rapid transit project, ION (#wrLRT), but I tweet train, theme park, and bicycling adventures, too. Unabashed gadgetbahn enthusiast. 🏳️‍🌈🐾🇨🇦
Eglinton Crosstown was supposed to be testing today. I walked the whole above-ground portion but didn’t see any action, except for a crew *pouring concrete* at one of the stations.

I couldn’t imagine all winter how this would feel.

After 6 rides, I still can’t figure it out 😅

Rivaling the Mosasaurus Roll on Velocicoaster, AlpenFury’s Fire Serpent Roll, two back-to-back inclined and declined heartline rolls succeed perfectly in trying to convince you that your body is coming apart, and it’s glorious. 🥰

Nice over-centre mechanism here for lifting the side plates of the movable station floor into place on AlpenFury.

Looks like Canada's Wonderland heard us.

The only black mark I can think of is the queue setup is egregious; it (currently) has no shade canopy, likely as a result of rushing to open the ride, due to it being late.

This must be resolved soon; we saw someone pass out. We had brought a small umbrella, which is a must.

AlpenFury was my 538th coaster, and absolutely blew away my expectations, which were very, very high.

Wonderland may not have any idea what they have done, but they and Premier have created one of the best roller coasters in the entire world.

10/10.
