Other Information

• To give the feeling of flight, the passengers ride in a lying-down position. The track can twist to allow the riders to travel face-up with the track below them, or suspended face-down with the track above them.

• The station platform can be suspended (upside-down). To do so you have to build a track piece 1 space above the ground, build a in-line twist, and select 'Station Platform' in the special track piece list.
