Blackpool Pleasure Beach ICON - Behind The Scenes - Mack Rides Factory

Blackpool Pleasure Beach has announced it is to build a new £16.25m rollercoaster. It will be the UK’s first ever with a double-launch - an advanced technology that gives the roller coaster two powerful thrusts of acceleration during the ride. ‘Construction 2018’ will feature the most number of interactions in the world with 15 interactions involving five different rides and two tunnels.
The ride is being manufactured by Mack Rides at their world-class factory in Waldkirch, Germany, utilising the latest state-of-the-art engineering processes, including laser beam technology for extreme accuracy. The ride will open in Spring 2018.
With special thanks to Blackpool Pleasure Beach and Mack Rides, you can see behind the scenes at the Mack Rides Factory on the day of the announcement of this fantastic new attraction coming to Blackpool in 2018.

I think the track is going to be black instead of green, because at 7:02, there is black track. It could be for STOE at Movie Park Germany, but I doubt it...

[@yourexperienceguide]

XBCPG It could be for anything, Mack have lots of on going projects.

[@matthewrobertson95]

the green and brown in the video rendering are probably just placeholder colors.

[@iFlexGaming]

they might not have painted it yet????

[@yourexperienceguide]

iFlex Gaming the track in the video is for STOE at Movie Park in Germany.

Pleasure Beach Experience Oh lol

[@santarudolph470]

Was this video renamed to icon after you know the name.

[@yourexperienceguide]

Santa Rudolph Yes

[@Dancefmlivecom]

so the question is how are they going to get all this over from Germany are they just simply going to stick it in a container and ship it or is there another method

[@yourexperienceguide]

It will be brought over in sections, probably not all at once.

[@jazzx251]

Germany launched the "BlitzKreig" satellite - it dropped many of the same identical components all over the world, but some of them hit the UK near Blackpool, as planned.
It was more cost effective than driving the components into the UK over the course of 24 hours.

[@micjubba709]

Was all shipped a think on a huge cargo ship separate pieces not in containers

[@micjubba709]

7:03 icons tranfer section with track piece on motor wheels fitted 😁

Morgan needs to smarten himself up!!

[@dougbriglmen716]

So long as he is talking an interest in the rides side of things then I am good.
Espcually if he ends up inherating the park from his aunt and his dad.
And he seems to be learning form his dad.

I find it cringy to watch the head executives of Mack Rides and BPB watching a low quality NL2 simulation...

[@yourexperienceguide]

Why?

[@crashcoaster3852]

Pleasure Beach Experience I have no idea - I think it's the fact they are all watching it in complete silence, as if they were all in awe at the video...

[@yourexperienceguide]

It was the first time BPB reps had watched it back, so yeah they're going to sit in silence and watch it back, we don't see the issue to be honest.

[@crashcoaster3852]

Pleasure Beach Experience There's no issue, I just find it odd. Your response time is rapid btw...

[@yourexperienceguide]

Ok fair enough :)
