Thorpe Park Query - CoasterBuzz

NickNickNick

I was wondering what the coaster is behind the picture of "Rush" in the second photo on this page:

I remember reading that a mouse coster was being planning like the one depicted. But is that coaster operating?

Thanks.

I'd be TEMPTED to say that that ride is Gardaland's Screamin' Squirrel...hmmm, or maybe that's Utah at the S&S plant/exhibition grounds? Someone else wanna take a shot?

edit: By using the *mouse-over* feature, it says: "Rush pictured at the manufacturer's plant"....so I can SAFELY assume that it's in Utah...;)

Uh, Gator...remember this from a few days ago? Yes, that is the photo of the ride when it was at S&S's facility in Utah. The ride is now at Gardaland.
