JEFF! They are *NOT*. It's a coaster, and you can see the nylon-coated steel
running wheels underneath the carbody. The big technic wheels do not rotate.
Yes, it gets boosts from kicker tyres in the station to move it from offload
to load, and then onto the lift.
And, for what it's worth, I've riden about 7 linear motor powered coasters.
