Great American Scream Machine

The Great American Scream Machine is a classic wooden roller coaster featuring an out-and-back layout that stretches along a scenic waterfront. Utilizing a traditional chain lift hill, the ride gains potential energy before descending a series of large hills and smaller camelbacks designed to provide negative G-forces. The track is constructed of layered wood topped with steel running strips, facilitating a rhythmic vibration characteristic of vintage wooden designs. Riders experience a combination of lateral forces and airtime as the trains navigate the elongated course before returning to the station via a final brake run.
