Angle O. Descent Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 ^ Definitely a cool train design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beenagins87 Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 Lighting Rods trains look amazing in person. Also I love B&M hyper and giga trains with the clamshell retrained, Also love Millenium Flyer trains. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rcjp Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 Some favourites from this past summer's visits: Mack's trains are really good. I have to say I'm not quite a fan of the way they look but they ride amazingly. Super comfortable and with plenty of freedom. I'd love to try the ones they used on lost gravity as they look like a comfortable version of skyrush's (which, apart from that issue, are also great) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prozach626 Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 (edited) I'm a sucker for Diamonback's trains, look and feel. I also like the corny wheel covers on Afterburn, especially the redbirds with teeth.

Henry M Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 I do love the complete feel of the old B&M dive machines. They seem so mechanical, and as if they are purely there to drop you into a hole. They feel RAW! The color scheme of black and orange is also really nice. They just look so cool.

TheCoasterKid211 Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 ^ Agreed, the old SheiKra cars were really cool-looking. I personally love the color scheme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yay101 Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 THESE. I miss X at SFMM so much. With SkyRush being my favourite coaster, it also has an amazing train (as does Flying Aces). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ytterbiumanalyst Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 Pony Express at Knott's Berry Farm. It's the only coaster I've been on where the train was the entire point of the ride and the entire reason it was fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michaellynn4 Posted September 19, 2016 Share Posted September 19, 2016 I don't care for any ride that requires a seat belt across two sides of a restraint, connecting them in the middle (see: X, Vekoma Flying Dutchmans). I see it as shoddy engineering and a sure sign of a painful experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ride of steel Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 Worst: Ride of steels old trains with the metal bars, and clunky seatbelts. Best:Kumba's with that awesome looking zero car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLCHeadache Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 (edited) Most of the coaster trains at BGW. Can't go wrong with the look of classic Arrow trains, and Loch Ness Monster's trains are lovingly maintained. Alpengeist is the ultimate expression of the inverted coaster, the skis push it over the top. Apollo's Chariot has the best-looking B&M hyper trains, that design on the zero car is just so classy. For all of the faults Verbolten has, the trains are not one. Working headlights set it apart. InvadR's trains are the best fate for the old Gwazi trains.

Nrthwnd Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 (edited) I probably posted this earlier, on another page, but it's definitely worth repeating.... (Found it. Bottom of Page 21.) Easily the one that still resonates with me, child and/or adult, is the Alice In Wonderland cars at Disneyland. I still equate it, as the "non-flying" version of Peter Pan! From that dive into the rabbit hole, thru to the Un-Birthday Party! And, repeating my usual "suggestion," these could be turned into awesome trackless vehicles, like those Hunny Pots at TDL, for a really original Alice 21st Century attraction, complete with multilevels, trackless vehicles, and a LOT of audio-animatronics, real scenic designs and screen-mapping technology.... Just a suggestion. (And I also repeat - NOT based on the Tim Burton movies. ONLY on Disney's Original.) Perfect for a trackless vehicle conversion! (o: (Photo from the net.)

thrillseeker4552 Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 I absolutely love Manta's trains (at SWSD). Not only are they super comfortable and free (and high capacity), but they have an awesome color scheme and the Manta ray on the zero car is awesome.
