Siren’s Curse construction reaches new heights with installation of tilt track

Walt's avatar

Cedar Point’s record-breaking Siren’s Curse tilt roller coaster is one step closer to bringing even more happy screams to the famed amusement park destination. Crews today lifted the ride’s signature element – the tilt track – to the highest point on the roller coaster. This 45-ton, 61-foot-long section of track is the ride’s signature terrifying element, teetering the coaster’s train into a 90-degree vertical position before locking into place and releasing riders into the 2,966 feet of twisting track below.

Meh. I'm more looking forward to the new bathroom over by the train station. Ping me when they top off the new toilets by installing the seats. Those tilt as well. I will definitely tilt those seats into position, and release my riders into the twisting pipes below. Happy screams all around ;)


Sit tight fellas ;)

"American Standard" will have certified flush inspectors on hand during testing, need to see if they need to shut things down to retro-fit the seats.

Glad to hear that it is American Standard, not Zamperla. The seats should be properly designed to withstand all expected forces (which are considerable in this case). ;)


Sit tight fellas ;)
