Instead of having a guide wheel and an up-stop wheel this mouse would have a part of the car come down between the two middle rails to hold the car to the track.  What I find interesting is the chain for the lift is outside of the track.

If I had my way I'd get this coaster back up and running but I'd leave as many of the trees in place.  Just imagine zooming back and forth under this canopy of leaves.

After zigzagging back and forth on the top level it's time for some drops and hills but before that you have to go through this big turn before heading on down.

Here's a close-up of the track on one of the hills.  It's a bit easier to see where the up-stop would fit into the middle rails.
