Giga Coaster

Overview
The giga coaster is a steel coaster which can go over 300ft. The most special part of this coaster is that it has a Cable Lift. A cable lift replaces the chain lift ( Note: There can only be one cable lift on each coaster). It starts from the highest point of the first hill down to the station. Then it carries up the train to the top of the inittial hill at roughly 15 mph.

In Real Life
The Giga Coaster is made by Intamin. There are only two "giga" coasters made by Intamin (both in the US). Although the name in RCT is Giga Coaster, it bears a resemblance to Intamin's Mega Coaster cars and track (which are also user on theirr Giga Coasters). There are 8 Giga/Mega coasters in the world built from 1999 on (the first was Bizarro in Six Flags New England, Formerly Superman: Ride of Steel). 7 of these coasters were built from 1999 until 2003 and the eighth wasn't built until 2010. In 2000, Millennium Force is the first Giga Coaster to be built. Intimidator 305 is the newest Intamin Giga/Mega coaster but features a different train design from the other 7. The ride features over the shoulder restraints and the train is themed to a stock-car. The Giga coaster was featured in RCT2 in Six Flags Holland (Goliath). Interestingly, in game the ride is only 120 feet tall while in real life it is 153 feet tall.
