This is the second LEGO coaster I've seen AFAIK.

What about the first? Could you post a link, plz?



Could you be thinking of this site:
http://www.lugnet.com/cool/site-075.html
Unfortunately, if you follow the link you get an error saying the site owner has
exceeded his bandwidth for the month, but if you check back in a few days maybe
it's there.  I do remember that there was someone from several years ago who had
a Cool Lego Site of the Week that did very cool working Technic models,
including a roller coaster.  I suspect it was this one.

Iain hangs out on rtlToronto these days so he may be able to supply more info
about his rides from that era.

As for working roller coasters, PNLTC member  Matt Chiles built one using 12V
track which I was lucky enough to see in 2002 when I was in Portland. SWEET!

This post might get you more info on it:

as will this gallery:

Hope that helps
