This was a very good, classic, PTC, John Allen coaster. On its own in park with 10+ other coasters, this still would be have been a solid addition to that park. Being where it was at Bell's, it was truly a gem. This was the only coaster and by far the main attraction of the wonderful little park. I went several times over the course of just a couple of years. I had a blast each and every time. The coaster had manual brakes. You literally got to watch the ride operator pull on this 5ft tall wooden lever to apply the brakes as the train comes into the station. The ride experience was more than decent. Classis wooden shakes and rattles with excellent pops of air. The first drop into the Joker's mouth was fun and a bit of a head chopper. It was very, re-ridable. The coaster community lost a real treasure when Bell's closed.
