Other Information
An exciting ride, as the riders feel vulnerable sitting so high above the track. Corners have no banking, so be careful to avoid high lateral G's.
In both RCT2 and RCT3 each vehicle counts as a separate ride.
In Real Life
Only one Steeplechase coaster is left in operation, which is at Blackpool Pleasure Beach.
In 2018, S&S Worldwide revealed a new concept coaster of the same name, with redesigned trains.
