Why did they call the roller coaster a roller coaster?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The first roller coaster was actually a coal mining car in NY in 1895 that ran 18 miles down hill and would hit a 100 MPH. People came up to the hill where it was located and rode it down. Roller coasters became popular after WW1 and there were over 2,000 built in the United States in the early 1900's. In 1927 the Coney Island roller coaster opened. The early roller coasters were very dangerous and many people got hurt on them. They are called roller coasters because wheels are used for them to coast on a track. It is all done with gravity.

How long is the Tower of Terror ride?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Generally between 35-40 MPH. It would go a lot slower if not for the fact that it's actually being pulled down by a machine as it "drops" to make it go faster. This machine also helps the randomized patterns, too, so no two rides are exactly the same.

What kind of roller coaster is top thrill dragster?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Not quite sure what you mean by "what type" but IntaminAG (the builder) calls these types of coasters "Accelerator Coasters".

It is not a roller coaster- it is a flat ride- as are real dragsters. the dragsters run on a track and it is believed to be connected to something like the feed rod- threaded in a worm pattern and under power- of a lather. thus, the cars cannot get out of control Such a lengthy feed-rod would make for an expensive ride to engineer and concievably maintain, they are not a very common ride. I have never seen them.
