UK park tries something unique with Gold Rush

July 26, 2024, 7:29 PM · We've got another roller coaster debut. Britain's Drayton Manor has opened its new Intamin family coaster, Gold Rush.

With a 39-inch [1m] height requirement, Gold Rush features a tire-propelled boost as well as forward and backward sections. The trick is that you won't know which route the train will take after you board. The park called it "the world's first-ever roller coaster with two unique multi-directional experiences."

Here is the park's official POV video, which shows one of the route options for Gold Rush.
