Great Scenic Railway

Height
50 ft
Length
2,500 ft
This wooden side-friction coaster featured a classic layout with gentle dips and banked turns. A chain lift carried trains to the top of the structure before they navigated a series of drops and turnarounds built within a wooden lattice. The ride utilized on-board braking operated by a ride attendant to control the speed throughout the course. The experience focused on smooth momentum and scenic views rather than high-intensity forces.
