Utah Coaster Enthusiasts | Singularity - New For Lagoon 2023 [NL2 Round Up 300 Entry] @utahcoasterenthusiasts | Uploaded November 2019 | Updated October 2024, 13 hours ago.
Utah Coaster Enthusiasts presents Singularity 245. A coaster addition I would love to be built at Lagoon. This is my own creation and I am not affiliated with Lagoon in anyway.
Youtube doesn't allow me the length to post here the complete back story of this coaster design. To read to the full back story click here: lagoonfans.com/showthread.php?tid=6077&pid=85096#pid85096 Over the next few days the whole back story will be at the link in anticipation of the release of the video. Snippets of the back story are below to read however.
Since the days of Simon Bamberger’s there has been a super-secret division of Lagoon that is now not so secret anymore. This super-secret division has been hidden in many different locations at Lagoon over the years but most recently was located under the Hydro Luge attraction on the northern boundary of the park. A recent accident has exposed them, an accident that was caused by not enough caution. The accident happened as they were coming up with Lagoon’s next big thing as that was the division’s purpose. This super-secret division is known as Lagoon Labs.
Lagoon acting quickly to cover up this disaster put Lagoon Lab’s to work as the containment crew. The plan was, as the saying goes to make lemonade from lemons by making this now no longer secret Singularity the parks next new BIG attraction and make it look intentional. In collecting the facts of what caused the disaster, turning the Singularity into an attraction at the park would not be straight forward. The ride system could not be powered as they did not want a repeat of the powered probe incident causing the Singularity to react violently again. After much thought, they determined the best way to make an attraction that would be predictable and reliable would be a technology they knew well, a roller coaster.
In the process of designing a roller coaster to travel into the Singularity to the Half- Dimension, it was discovered that the optimal speed for which to enter it was when the train reached a speed of 88 MPH. In addition, the train would need to have a coating of Flux to protect the rides and the train itself from the intense magnetic field inside of the Half-Dimension. The Flux keeps a opposite magnetic field established around the train allowing it to travel safely. To ensure the proper magnetic field is kept around the train there have been re- magnetization tunnels that glow teal in color to keep the field at proper levels. Then to exit the Half Dimension quickly this field must be removed and quickly. To do this a de-magnetization tunnel colored red to remove the field and then to ensure total removal the train will enter a splash down which removed all magnetic fields the train still has.
Now it’s you turn to enter the Half-Dimension on:
SINGULARITY 245
The tallest, fastest and longest roller coaster in the Inter-mountain West! Diving into the Half-Dimension from 245 feet in the air at 80 degrees and falling for 256 feet at 88 MPH. Your ride will feature 8 airtime moments much more than any roller coaster at Lagoon. You will never be the same again after your ride into the Hal-Dimension! Appearing in spring 2023, only at Lagoon!

![Iron Justice - RMC Hybrid Conversion of the GCI Wild Legend [NoLimits2]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/ytLfSsxVLTw/hqdefault.jpg "Iron Justice - RMC Hybrid Conversion of the GCI Wild Legend [NoLimits2]
4 years ago, I spent 10 months 3D modeling Pioneer Village at Lagoon Amusement Park in Utah. For the purpose of designing a wood coaster to fit in around it. That coaster was the Wild Legend, designed by me to a GCI type design. I designed it for a competition and though I didnt win, it taught me a lot about 3D modeling in how to make models less taxing on system resources while keeping the same level of detail and as each coaster design does, my NL2 skills got better too.
So when NL2 released the RMC Hybrid Update earlier this year, I knew my GCI design was a perfect candidate to use it on. It had lots of great already to go theming and would be like real life, in that an existing wood coaster would be converted over, instead of just making a brand new design.
I hope you enjoy it, please like, share and subscribe to help the channel grow and to know when new videos are posted.

This is a NL2 recreation of Lagoons Roller Coaster. I started it in 2018 with the intention of using it to show what GCI Trains would look like on the coaster. I didnt get it finished before Lagoon did just that, replace its PTC trains with Millennium Flyers from GCI. So this got put on the back burner. A few months ago, I decided to revive this project and finish it.
I left the old station and PTC trains as I had done many hours of 3D modeling on the station and didnt want to waste all that work. Maybe someday Ill go back and model the new station and put out a video with the GCI trains.
Enjoy!")
