Silver Comet (roller coaster)

Silver Comet is a wooden roller coaster with a hybrid steel frame at Fantasy Island in Grand Island, New York.WalkthroughA short drop is encountered immediately after leaving the station, quickly followed by a slight turn to the left. There is a short, straight section of track that is then followed by a u-turn to the left, leading to the 82foot lift hill. The largest drop on the ride comes immediately after the train reaches the top of the lift hill, which is then followed by a slight turn to the left. Two small hills are encountered, before a large ascent that is followed by a wide-banked turn to the left and a small drop. There is a slight turn to the right followed by a large drop. There is another ascent that leads into a large u-turn to the right. There is another drop and ascent, followed by another turn to the right. A third grouping of a drop and ascent is encountered, followed this time by a turn to the left. A large drop is followed by a series of small hills, which lead into a rough turn to the left that includes changes in elevation. There is another series of drops and rises, followed by a slight turn to the right and the brake run, parallel to the lift hill. A small drop follows the brake run, which in turn leads into the station.StationThe Silver Comet station uses a similar design from the former Comet station at Crystal Beach. It is a wide building with a few comets on its facade. Both it and the old Comet station have a tower saying "comet" in five colors.
