Silver Comet, Wooden roller coaster in Grand Island, New York, US.

The Silver Comet extends 2,800 feet in length, reaches heights of 82 feet, and accelerates to speeds of 55 miles per hour.

The Silver Comet began operations at Niagara Amusement Park in 1999, replacing the former Comet roller coaster from Crystal Beach Park.

The roller coaster design reflects traditional American amusement engineering with its wooden structure and hybrid steel frame construction techniques.

The coaster train contains six cars with individual lap bars and seat belts, accommodating 24 riders in two rows across.

The Silver Comet underwent a color transformation from its initial purple scheme to a metallic blue finish with red, orange, and yellow accents.
