Mr. Freeze Reverse Blast

Like several other coasters built by Premier Rides, Mister Freeze's trains were modified in 2002 when "over-the-shoulder" restraints were replaced with lap bars.

Two 20-passenger trains are able to run simultaneously thanks to a sliding platform in the station.  When a train is ready to launch, it is moved to the center of the station in order to align with the launch tunnel.  This unusual arrangement allows either one train to unload or load while another is running the course, or two trains can unload or load at the same time.  This greatly increases hourly capacity compared to a traditional shuttle coaster limited to one train like a Boomerang.
