Thats one strong little engine! I imagine that wouldn;t be a cheap and easy build, but, fun at best, " Heck with counting 'em rivets, TRAINS ARE FOR FUN! Not called the Mad Scientist for nothing either!"

Yes that is a neat setup they have I have been on that ride many times. It is a really awesome park if you ever get the chance to stop and visit. It is free for active or veteran military during the week and you will get a 20 dollar ride book on the weekends. Well worth the trip old school rides and they are building a new wooden coaster not sure when it is going to be open to ride though.
