Ja, sicher !
Über die Suchfunktion findet man sicher noch was ;-)

Was mich mehr aufregt, das auf besagter Seite über Intamin der Coaster "Nessie" vom Hansa Park gelistet ist.
Mann... Nessie steht schon seit 1980 da und es sollte bekannt sein, das die von Schwarzkopf ist. :-(

Jaja, das alte Problem. Da Intamin in den 70er Jahren als "Ride Broker" für Schwarzkopf in den USA fungierte, und Intamin sicher auch leichter auszusprechen ist, als "Sworskoff", gelten heute viele Schwazkopf Bahnen als Intamin Bahnen.
Das gleiche Missverständnis kursiert heute noch auf fast jeder Website, bez. EUROSTAR, der ja von Giovanola gebaut wurde, aber trotzdem hartnäckig als Intamin Produkt deklariert wird.

After the 1980, most of the SCHWARZKOPF coasters were designed by INTAMIN.

Nessie is a SCHWARZKOPF coaster, designed by INTAMIN.

Another example:

Montezuma's Revenge (Knott's) is a SCHWARZKOPF coaster, designed by INTAMIN.

EuroStar is a GIOVANOLA inverted, designed by INTAMIN. EuroStar also has Intamin trains, but that doesn't matter...

What do you mean by "designed by"?
Nearly all Schwarzkopf coasters were designed by Stengel.
The Schwarzkopf coasters (tracks/supports) were all manufactured on Schwarzkopfs factory. Special mechanics were manufactured by Giovanola.
The last Coaster to be built in the Schwarzkopf factory was Thriller. During this period Schwarzkopf company was "dissolved" due to poor financial expertise and a criminal financier who, instead of helping the company did his best to put money in his own hands. He went to prison in 1986!
Maurer baught the factory premises afterwards
Olympia Loop, Lisebergbanan, Jetline and its japanese clone were a collaboration of Schwarzkopf and other companies (not Intamin)

Proof it!

The Shuttle loops were all constructed by Schwarzkopf. This was Antons Heyday in the late seventies

Wrong. Its designed by Stengel. Go to Munich, theres an exhibition in the Stadtmuseum, celebrating Werner Stengels work.
Lots of his models are there, including EUROSTAR.
Take a look at Eurostar trains. The Giovanola Logo will be visible if you manage to look hard enough on the side of the trains.
The trick is, that Gio manufactured all these tiny bits years ago for companies like Schwarzkopf and Intamin (who actually started quite late to build coasters. The first collaboration with Schwarzkopf was the double loop Colossus, which is still the only Schwarzkopf design they offer for sale themselves.)
Giovanola changed the four abreast seating to two abreast for ANACONDA. Compare the trains for Anaconda and Eurostar and you will see that they are identical.
