Yea, there not gonna put the cars tougher or anything.

5 trains, 4 cars each.

That is one of the most beautiful rides I have ever seen. Sure, it's no Boulder Dash, but damn!
Boulder Dash was the only good roller coaster.

Well, because the train is getting pulled through...the track is obviously complete, an update that was missed on this thread. So, here is some video of the completed track! WHOO! [:D]

Final Piece of Track Installed:

How heavy is a piece of track like that? (First video)
So, my friend came up to me the other day and asked if I wanted a frozen banana, and I said no, but I want a normal banana later, so... yea.
