Alton Towers - Proposed Cross Valley Woodie - Front Seat

This is a no-limits re-creation of the wooden rollerocatser that was supposed to cross the valley at Alton Towers in 2006. This was never built and the planning application was withdrawn.

wow, you did a perfect job of recreating this

This would be a brilliant fit for the valley at alton towers! A brilliant coaster, looks really fast in the valley crossing, it would really put alton towers back into the spotlight (as thirteen was hardly a huge success), the only problem is as people have suggested the noise of a woodie (considering the neighbours) and the interuption of the tranquility in the gardens within the valley. I'd definatley like to see a woodie like this built at alton towers! Good job!

@dannut89 The worst part is, the Intamin plug and plany woodies are actually pretty quiet...Such a waste...

Man if this'd have been built... I remember first seeing the plans for this on TowersTimes, and I was so psyched. After riding all the wooden coasters at Blackpool, the idea of a brand new one, using the valleys as drops... Jeez it would've been epic. I mean, think how much faster Nemesis seems just because it's dug down a bit. Trees whipping past at sixty or seventy miles an hour, that would've been amazing.
