Europa-Park: Roller coaster Blue Fire gets stuck

“A train on the roller coaster was unable to overcome the first climbs at around 1 p.m. due to insufficient energy at the start and came to a standstill there,” said the spokesman. The train was able to be driven back as planned so that guests could leave the ride on the ground. “At no time did a dangerous situation arise.” The safety and well-being of guests are always the top priority for Europa-Park.”

It is not the first incident with the roller coaster

This is not the first incident with the roller coaster. In April, the Blue Fire failed to complete a curve and rolled back four times. A spokeswoman for the park spoke of a so-called rollback. At the time, technical reasons were identified. The roller coaster rolled back twice with passengers. After that, there were two attempts without passengers. The error was corrected.

Europa-Park in Rust near Freiburg is Germany’s largest amusement park.
