Arrow / Vekoma trains?

Looking through some of the older Vekoma coasters with the old Arrow Dynamic trains, I noticed that there is a big increase in the amount of these rides converting to the newer Vekoma carriges and some even by Kumbak.



Vekoma Trains



Arrow Trains



Kumbak Coaster Trains

Some of the rides seem to be benefitting from this while others have the negative effecet. For example the Alton Corkscrew seems to be much rougher than the Flamingoland Corkscrew which has the older trains???

Perhaps Flamingoland take more care of them. Probably as they seem to replace the wheels fairly often and give it a good repaint.

So what are your thoughts against the two train types?

I prefer the older style but I'll probably get shot down for this. Maybe I just don't like change
