Looping Roller Coaster

There is one moment every thrill seeker remembers: the pause at the very top, when the whole park goes quiet and the only thing left to do is hold on. This towering amusement park centerpiece captures that feeling in brick form, from the slow climb up the elevator tower to the rush through two full vertical loops.

The gravity-driven coaster includes a train and a boarding station with opening safety barriers and a control panel, so you can lower the bars, release the brake and send the cars rolling toward the base of the tower. The elevator lifts the train to the top of the structure, then physics takes over through the spiral curves and both loops. A full cast of 11 minifigures brings the midway to life: a ride operator, a balloon seller, a pretzel seller, a hot dog seller, a grandmother, a young boy and five riders, six of them with reversible faces so you can switch a nervous grimace for a delighted grin. Ground-level details round out the scene with a park bench and map, a balloon cart, a pretzel cart, a hot dog stand and a height marker.
