    The coaster has 2 trains one blue and one red with both having 10 cars with riders 2 across in 2 rows with a total of 38 as the front car only has 2 seats

    Best thing about this coaster is 1) It's very long. So you get what you paid and waited for. 2) It's all built on the ground and has a very scenic view while you're on it. It's nice how whoever designed it, wanted to appreciate the and incorporate the surrounding areas. Respect x

    This is the weirdest coaster I've ever seen. It's like The Beast and an alpine coaster met in a bar one night and one thing lead to another.

      It was a similar track length to the Beast too. Ultimate was a few hundred longer but both in the 7000s. Only Steel Dragon 2000 has topped them. Remains the only coaster to be 8000 or longer. Wonder who and when will be the first to hit 9000?

    Sat here 6 years later, howling laughing at the screams and commentary over how painful it is, as I reminisce about riding this years ago and enduring the exact same shock of pain and thrill. It was an incredible experience, and i am looking back as i mourn the fact that it's been removed from the park. Good times... really good times.

    Wow! From 1991 and I never heard of this coaster before. I don't think I have ever seen a terrain coaster that makes as good a use of the terrain as this one, and I have seen quite a few: The Kennywood coasters, Boulderdash, Rollo Coaster, The Beast. Just to name a few. Is this in an actual park? I don't see any other rides around...just lots of farmland.

    • @Coaster_Crazy

  • @BedfordMarcus
    @BedfordMarcus 5 років тому +2

    There are things I both like and dislike about this coaster. If I was to rate it out of 10, I would give it a 5. It's not bad, but it's not great either, it has it's quirks however there is still lots of fun to be had riding this, so it's worth a having a one or two rides on it during your visit. The things I really like about this coaster is the fact that I love "Terrain Coasters" and it's long length. Although unfortunately, you spend most of the ride on the notoriously slow lift hills and coasting at a very slow speed just before the second drop. The first part of the track (after the first drop) is a little bit too slow paced to excite, especially over the crests towards the end, however the same applies to other parts of the track too. You may think that during that time you can enjoy just a scenic cruise through the park, but this is a very rough coaster! So to the point where it is more rickety than some of the worst Northern Rail trains, so there is lots of knee bashing going on (although I do keep hearing that it's better when you are further towards the back of the train). Apart from those few downsides, the momentum from the drops and flying through the high speed turns through the woods, as well the helixes are the awesome parts of the ride, which makes this coaster worth riding during your visit, if you don't mind the roughness.
    It also has a fair few interesting things going for it too, such as this coaster ironically being made by British Rail. The fact that it looks like a wooden/hybrid coaster, despite being steel, plus it also looks like a backyard roller coaster in many places. This coaster has also hit two deers over it's life (showering passengers in blood!). Also is this supposed to be a roller coaster or miniature railway? This coaster is sure one of the most interesting right!? ;)
