Leviathan

This is how trains reverse direction midway through the ride.  A 45-meter-tall (147-foot) hammerhead turn is used to get trains headed back toward the station.  To add to the drama, the turn is overbanked at a 115° angle.

The flags at the bottom of this picture are the Canadian flag and flags from seven Canadian Provinces.  From left to right, the flags visible are: Canada, Prince Edward Island, British Columbia, Manitoba, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Quebec, and Ontario.
