The courses of 640 meters in a kind artificial ice channel concern drive a roller coaster in that. The special to this from recreational parks already it admitted attraction is that the drive is usually made not as by means of a chain elevator, but by a new LIM system. The manufacturer explains: "a conventional elevator system requires large space requirement. Around the course in addition, on smaller terrains(space) to install to be able we use an electromagnetic drive; Similarly in principle that of the Transrapid." To the company Kinzler comes now still some at work. Because the decoration elements and vehicles for the loading of the plant are manufactured in self-direction. Scarcely 20 truck transportation will be necessary, in order to transport "Bobslide" from a festplatz on the other hand.
