Toboggan, Steel roller coaster in Hersheypark, Pennsylvania, US
The Toboggan features a vertical lift tower where two-passenger cars climb to a height of 45 feet before spiraling down around the structure.
Chance Industries manufactured this steel coaster model from 1969 to the mid-1970s, with Hersheypark acquiring two identical units during this period.
The Toboggan represents a generation of compact steel coasters that brought mechanical innovation to smaller parks and traveling carnivals across the United States.
The roller coaster ride extends over 450 feet of track and completes its circuit in 70 seconds, operating with a specialized rubber tire brake system.
Each vehicle contains a hydraulic clutch braking mechanism that controls descent speed by engaging with a center rail midway through the first spiral.
