Another difference is that Steel Coasters can have a~~ ~~ lift hill with chain lift later in the ride~~ ~~ while the LIM ~~can~~normally ~~not~~cannot have chain ~~lift at all~~lifts. ** In OpenRCT2, both coaster types can be made to either pass through the station or not pass through the station. * This ride is called '''Steel Roller Coaster''' in the original [[RollerCoaster Tycoon]]. * The first and second games have different roller coaster train designs. ** In OpenRCT2, since the 0.4.2 release, the RCT1 Steel Roller Coaster's trains are available for use, most commonly being found in RCT1 scenarios. If these trains are added onto a scenario along with the RCT2 trains, the RCT1 trains will take priority on the build menu when grouping by ride types. == In Real Life == This ride is called '''Steel Roller Coaster''' in the original [[RollerCoaster Tycoon]] The Looping Coaster closely resembles the coasters designed by Schwarzkopf and Hopkins. This track type is also useful for making shuttle [[roller coaster]]s like the popular Shuttle Loop model manufactured by Schwarzkopf. ~~===In Real Life===~~ The Looping Coaster closely resembles the coasters designed by Schwarzkopf and Hopkins.
