Todd who is also known as "the mouth from the south" was
having such a good time hanging out under Mr. Freeze that he was
quiet for a little bit.
Here is Amanda "Coasterjedi" and her husband John posing for a
picture. They weren't posing for me but I figured I would snag
a shot.
What goes up must come down with the assistance of a bunch of linear
induction motors to give Mr. Freeze enough speed to get back around
and into the station.
It was great getting to get close to the coaster and really see the
expressions on the faces of everyone riding Mr. Freeze as they sped
past.
Here is a nice photo to get all technical about. The fins that
stick out from the car slide through the linear induction motor and
are pushed/pulled down the track from the electromagnets as they are
fired off. The LIM's are used to launch Mr. Freeze as well as
being used as brakes to slow it when the train heads back into the
station.
