While not officially announced, Six Flags New England is now receiving track for its new B&M coaster, presumed by many to be a floorless model. SixFlagsNews.com has posted photos of the track, construction site and blueprints.

What if the ride isn't a Floorless and it's something totaly new. HAHA j/k got you there.
After the turn and before the brake run you can see a wigge.
I'm making an educated guess at a twisting drop, vertical loop, dive loop (possibly an immelman), cobra roll, zero-g roll, and interlocking corkscrews, respectively. Looks like an awesome layout, given the relatively short track length.

Yup....Sure wish they bought an Arrow instead...oh well, maybe next time!
A mine train would be good, they need another family ride.
There is no way its got a cobra roll in that little space. I say 5 inversions at the most.
Medusa! YOU ARE SO.... RIGHT! Heh, I actually agree with you this time, there is no way there is going to be a cobra roll, only the loop, diving loop, zero g, and corkscrews... Just look at the plans "scanz"...
The announcement is delayed once again until January.

TOP 5
1. Alpengeist, 2. Magnum XL-200, 3. Superman: Ride of Steel (SFNE), 4. Volcano: The Blast Coaster, 5. Apollo's Chariot
Maybe this is the first stand-up with a zero g roll....

I wish we had more coasters in Europe!!!!
Yeah, that wiggle does look big enough to allow that. Before any of you debunk this, don't forget Shockwave @ Drayton Manor has one. Also a Stand-Up with interlocking Flat Spins is possible.

Wasn't the point of zooming in on the plans to take pics of the wiggle? :)

Hmmm, I hear that X marks the spot for 2002 at SFNE....
Where did you here that???
I still hope it's a Stand-Up since Shockwave @ Drayton Manor gets such good reviews and this one was designed by Intamin so the B&M version should be even smoother.

3. Riddler's Revenge
4. Batman the Ride
Woah, dude. Calm down. It was a GUESS.
You know Jankman now you made me think it could be a stand up again but now that I know about the Zero G Roll I'm pretty sure its a floorless.
It's a floorless.

In my opinion, it has four inversions: vertical loop, diving loop, corkscrews. With the long straight track being a airtime hill, just like Superman at Movie World Madrid (which, IMHO, looks like the best designed floorless - well prepared element order, unique layout, and of course, looks very graceful!)!

Actually, wait... It's hard to see but I think I just saw a twist in the line where the airtime hill was going to be. MAYBE a zero g roll! We'll see!

I also heard 4 inversions. I don't know anymore.
I'm just saying that don't be surprised by the name of this coaster, look at the colors and wait till you see what the trains' colors look like
It definantly, absolutely, no matter what, a floorless coaster.  Many people, including me, have heard from staff that it is a floorless.  I'm pretty doubtful that over a dozen people on SFNE staff could all be wrong.
Yea, but on every type of B&M except standups, the floor can't be reached. That's just one error I can think of. I also wonder why the staff would be told this. Though, I still think it's a standup.

Anyway, I doubt this will take until opening day next year to construct. In the plans on Theme Park New England, although outdated, do show a path going under the coaster, but just ending. Maybe this will lead to more rides etc. Also on those plans, doesn't the water park look larger? If the the water park gets expansions, that would be far more important, for that stupid water park is un-safely overcrowded even on the parks less attended days.
