After weeks of speculation, Drayton Manor has finally teased its brand-new roller coaster in a video shared on social media. The new ride is a lift and launch coaster by Intamin and is located in the recently opened Frontier Falls section of the park.
The teaser shows a close-up of the ride vehicles, which feature a nostalgia-inducing wooden look and traditional mining equipment on the front. Take a look for yourself below.
We spotted the construction in full force when we popped down to check out The Wave earlier this year and, we have to say, the family coaster is looking impressive.
While the name of the ride is yet to be revealed, the slogan seems to be “Ready to Strike Gold” and we imagine a similar gold rush-style name will be announced in the next couple of weeks.
