I can post a 3d model of the train tomorrow if you want

very nice! I'm currently building a rollercoaster-ish ride myself (completely different style and at technic figure scale though) so I know the level of difficultie this MOC is at

I'm not that fond of the fact that the whole rail system is based on bending LEGO parts and connections in ways they are not ment too, but I see how it's hard to make rails without doing so.

I do like the video, very nice editing!

Good grief! That is amazing! It must have taken you many hours, days, weeks (Maybe months) to build this. My hat is off to you for this great accomplishment. 

Thanks for sharing this...

[Good old Lego builder]

Fantastic build!

 

[JopieK]

Really nice Gijserman! You will need toilets though ;) Did you change the speed of the video or is it the original speed? The speed looks very nice for a LEGO rollercoaster.

[JJ2]

I really like roller coasters but I think I would pass on this one the speed it accelerates seems to much for me.

jokes aside stunning creation, how many black 2L pin extenders or the things that make up the tracks are there?

[JTS]

This is amazing. I spent ages on RCT3 as a kid and would love to build my own.

I'd have to clear out a few BL stores of the 2L pin connectors first though  

[Attika]

I couldn't even imagine that something like this is even possible....   I'm... (soon as I find the right word I'll edit the post)

  Wow... I am shocked and amazed... excellent job, that is an epic creation!

This is the original speed.

I think somewhere between 800 and 900

This is brilliant! Love the big monster that swallows the train.

1:18 ouch, it seems that some passagers are banging their heads on the arch :P

Truly fantastic!

[nerdsforprez]

Too much fun......I really like the theme- park details everywhere as well

[Trekkie99]

Whoa! This is awesome! Is this puristic? Looks like it. Thumbs up.

[BusterHaus]

This is a whole other level of awesome. Congratulations on a fantastic build. I love that you used Mindstorms to control the train spacing. 

[Gijserman]

Thanks everyone for the kind words :)

I have made a 3d model of the track for anyone it might interest

It's an update of our previous track design. This track is much stronger and a tiny bit narrower than the previous design, so it's faster and can hold a lot more weight.

Interesting... I haven't seen that part before.

[teflon]

This is very exciting creation. It's quite inspiring. I also like that you have published instructions of previous model on YouTube. Thanks!
