tells the Springfield News-Leader that the Branson Coaster doesn’t have a
specific opening date but it will be “sooner than August.”
Mountain coasters, or alpine coasters, are installed on steep hillsides so
that gravity can give riders a thrill as they descend along an established track
in carts. Branson’s first mountain coaster, The Runaway, opened last August.
Wheeler says the newest coaster will have two downhill tracks to carry riders
down side-by-side. Riders will start at the top of the attraction, and descend
in two-person carts on both tracks.
Wheeler didn’t specify pricing, but says it will be comparable to other
coasters in the region.
