After almost a year of teasing "#TheyreComing" on social media, the Cedar Point Steel Vengeance roller coaster trains are here. The trains for Cedar Point's new roller coaster, Steel Vengeance, recently arrived.The story of Steel Vengeance will be told through three new fictional outlaws who have banded together to "unsaddle" the reign of Maverick, Frontier Town's low-to-the-ground, double-launching roller coaster.Jackson "Blackjack" Chamberlain, the trio's leader, is tall, demanding and a master of the old deck of cards. Soon Blackjack will be joined by his partners, Chess "Wild One" Watkins and Wyatt "Digger" Dempsey.Steel Vengeance will offer riders unmatched intensity through a relentless series of dynamic movements on this innovative coaster:• Riders will board one of three trains and climb up 205 feet.• When they crest the lift hill, they'll stare straight down a 90-degree initial drop and a 200-foot fall to Earth.• Multiple airtime hills follow, including the world's fastest airtime hill ever created on a hybrid roller coaster.• A 116-foot-tall outer-banked hill places riders on an outward tilt while moving forward.Steel Vengeance will also debut the first-of-its-kind "twisted snake dive." In this new maneuver, the coaster's train will enter a half-barrel roll, hang upside down for a brief moment and then turn back in the direction of travel, not completing a full roll.The coaster's figure-eight layout will create a fast-paced journey with multiple airtime hills, twists and dives, over-banked turns and surprise maneuvers.The entire ride will last approximately 2 minutes, 30 seconds.Steel Vengeance is expected to start testing in March or April, weather dependent.Get your tickets for Steel Vengeance World Premiere Weekend on Saturday, May 5, and Sunday, May 6 at cedarpoint.com.
