The Grand Exposition Coaster is a steel roller coaster located at Silver Dollar City in Branson, Missouri[1][2] that opened in April 2006. It is believed to be a replacement of Runaway Ore Cart. The Grand Exposition Coaster was built by Zamperla[3] of Italy as part of an area of the park dubbed "The Grand Exposition".[4]
The ride consists of little more than a small drop and upwards helix, traversed by the train three times for each ride cycle. Guests go through a short walkway, takes a left turn and into the station. The ride immediately starts with a small incline. After the crest, riders go through the small drop into the helix. Riders then make a right-hand U-turn into the station. Trains complete three laps of the coaster's track each ride.
