Worth a ride. I remember that during its opening season (Im giving away my age), the train on one side would regularly get stuck between hills and maintenence crew would have to emergency rescue the riders and then wench the train over the hill. Allegedly, the ride designers had forgotten to take into account the strong winds off Lake Erie and when the wind was blowing the right way the cars couldnt get over the hill. I wonder if this problem was ever totally fixed as the ride got stuck again (at a different spot) when I was at the park in 2006. This was the worlds largest coaster for one season -- The Beast at Kings Island surpassed it the next year.
