Jet Coaster (Japanese: ジェットコースター) was a steel roller coaster previously located at Biwako Tower in Otsu, Shiga, Japan.

Design

The ride is listed as being manufactured by Meisho Amusement Machines on most sources. Inspecting a picture however, reveals that the coaster train and track are identical to Togos SL Coaster.[1] While Meisho does feature a coaster model named SL Coaster which also includes an steam engine themed front car. The track and train design is noticeably different,[2] prompting Coasterpedia to list this coaster as build by Togo instead.

Colour scheme

Baby blue track and supports.

Trains

6 cars per train. In each car, riders are arranged 2 across in 2 rows, except for the front car which has 0, for a total of 20 riders per train.
