The story of Goliath
In 2002, Walibi Holland gave its Biddinghuizen visitors a new steel landmark. Goliath arrived as an Intamin Mega Coaster, set among the open Flevoland fields where even a modest rise in the land feels like an event. walibi.nl· coasterpedia.net
The engineering company was a distinguished one. Intamin supplied the coaster, Ing.-Büro Stengel GmbH is credited with the design, and RCS GmbH with onsite construction; a cable lift carries the train upward before the long run begins. coasterpedia.net
Walibi’s own account gives the grand travelling figures plainly: 46.8 metres high and 106 kilometres per hour. The park also presents Goliath as the longest roller coaster in the Benelux, a civic boast well suited to a summer queue at the station. walibi.nl
Park-history accounts remember its arrival as a very large undertaking for the then Six Flags Holland, with considerable public attention and a reported construction cost of $10.8 million. It was welcomed as a Benelux record-breaker, and it remains in operation today. walibi24.nl· coasterpedia.net
