Europapark Rust: Technical incident on the Voltron Nevera roller coaster

An exciting incident occurred at Europapark Rust when some visitors heard a loud bang near the “Voltron Nevera” roller coaster on Sunday, October 6th. Eyewitnesses reported seeing a piece of metal, possibly a large screw, come loose and fall into the pool. A quote from a witness makes it clear what those present experienced: "We were all sitting together at a food stand just a few meters from the train when suddenly there was a loud bang. Of course we were all frightened and looked around." This situation not only caused excitement but also concern among passengers at the popular theme park.

Europapark reacted quickly to the situation and announced that the roller coaster had to be closed immediately. Experts immediately began repairing the system. The park informed users on Twitter about the technical defect in a rail support on the “Voltron Nevera powered by Rimac” roller coaster. It was assured that the safety of passengers was guaranteed at all times and that the attraction could resume normal operations soon. However, details about the exact causes of the incident were not provided.

Another roller coaster alarm in Europa Park

The “Voltron” roller coaster is known for reaching speeds of up to 100 km/h and keeping visitors in suspense during its seven flips. Given this, it is particularly alarming when technical problems arise. However, fans of Europa Park can breathe a sigh of relief as operations were quickly resumed following the incident.

Despite the worrying incidents at “Voltron”, it is not the first time that a roller coaster has caused excitement at Europapark. There have already been several incidents this year. In the spring, for example, during a test ride, a roller coaster car suddenly stopped and had to be rescued by a crane. Additionally, it was reported in September that the Blue Fire Megacoaster became stuck on its side and the 20 occupants had to wait several minutes for help. Although such events are worrying, Europapark stressed that the frequency of disruptions is very low compared to the number of daily trips and is by no means unusual.

Overall, the Voltron Nevera incident represents another exciting moment at Europapark that sparked both excitement and concern. However, visitor safety remains the top priority and the park will continue to do everything possible to ensure the operation of these popular attractions.
