Other Information

Observation Towers have lower excitement ratings, unless they are built to very tall heights and have a lot of scenery around them. They make a

good alternative to outdoor rides and guests will flock to them in the rain. See also Double-deck Observation Tower.

Trivia

The strategy guide for RCT1 lists it debuting in the Added Attractions expansion pack, but it actually debuted in the default game before installing expansion packs.
In RCT3, if the ride is started without any ending part (just the station), it will fly off and crash after a while.
