REGINA II: PROJECT SUMMARY
For the refurbishment of Regina - now Regina II - at Tobu Zoo in Japan, GCII repaired and delivered two trains. The GCII crew included three employees for the duration of time it took to complete the retracking, with an additional two employees from the mechanical and installation teams when it came to installing the trains. Co-founder of GCII, Clair Hain Jr, was present for The drop hill and curve right beside the drop hill were Southern yellow pine on the top two layers of the outside rail. The roller coaster was updated with new trains, a new control system, a new magnetic brake system, and a new chain for the lift hill. The addition of queue gates was made, alongside the addition of new transfer tables for maintenance.
MORE FROM GCII
Boulder Dash at Lake Compounce in Connecticut will bring guests a new and improved ride experience this season thanks to the work of GCII. It’s already been five-times voted the world’s best coaster, taking riders on an epic journey through the trees and mountainside at 60 mph, and it’s just got even better. GCII has added 580 feet of Titan Track to deliver a smooth
and even faster ride to guests. The aim of the steel tracking goes beyond enhancing the ride experience and will also allow for easier maintenance. GCII’s Titan Track is where wood meets steel, merging together
for an unforgettable ride experience. The new steel track is capable of just about anything, including launches, inversions, tighter corners for GCII’s Infinity Flyer trains, and more extreme coaster elements. It is the first true hybrid system, allowing for a seamless transition between steel sections of track and wood sections of track, on any style support system. GCI’s co-founder, president and owner, Clair Hain Jr, added:
“I want to thank Jerry Brick, Palace Entertainment’s director of construction and maintenance and Lake Compounce Amusement Park for selecting Great Coasters International Inc. and our all- new Titan Track product to update Boulder Dash. I want to wish Lake Compounce a successful 2023 season!”
