Well, as a side project to learn some sketchup: I present Superman: Danger Ahead.
This coaster is made after a template I found on themepark.nl, as the location where Movie Park Germany will build a 45 meter tall coaster in 2014.
My coaster still uses the old building that are in that location, it has a topspeed of 98 km/h, a double launch, tophat, I-305 alike turn, 0-G hill and brake hill.
I builded this coaster using Newton2. Only problem with that program is that tophats are practically impossible to make. Therefore, my tophat is slightly misshapen...
The ride has 2 stations and a pre-ride, riding through some scenery. (not made yet). Because the train stops at the launch, in the pre-ride, final brake and 2 stations I am able to run 5 trains, without having to wait long. (approx 20 seconds before the actual ride, but with scenery around you, and 10 sec at the final brake). Because of the many trains, the ride has a capacity of 2880 persons/hour!
Since I updated already twice on other forums (sorry, forgot about this one...) you will see 2 versions of the tophat-supports. In each pic, I will tell if these are the correct ones or not.
Most important, the pictures!

Overview, with old tophat supports
First launch, still with old tophat supports
The turn between 2 launches
Second launch, tophat with old supports
I305 - alike turn
Overbank and 0-G airhill
Again the 0-G airhill, with old tophat supports
Turn, it goes over the mainstreet, explaining why some supports are strange.
Brake hill pulling -1 G, and the second station.
New tophat supports (Sorry for the 'statistics off' message, wanted to do everything a little too quick...)
The train texture
The train number is train-specific, so each train has another number
