Just done a quick check, and the lift and launch coaster was called on the 4th post of this thread, in mid February. Not bad.

Can't wait for this personally. Intamin coasters are generally very solid rides, and can be themed really well. The coaster type offers a lot of scope, and a launch is really marketable. The family nature will mean that it doesn't stick out like apocalypse and to a degree shockwave from the rest of the park, but Intamin are capable of still delivering forceful and interesting elements in that constraint. I am coming round to the goldmine/ wild west area as a theme, as this coaster could be very easily turned into a mine train. Perhaps having the launch be triggered by a dynamite explosion? Also, do we perhaps dare wonder at the possibilities of switch tracks and reverse elements, as this seems to be Intamin's current jam? Might be a bit too small a site to pull of something worth doing with that though. I hope they make use of the levels of terrain that they have there.

A lucky guess!
 
Scaffolding has gone up at the side of the toilets and around the back , they are digging into the ground and around the entire back. I’m excited to see the layout unfold as the months go on.
