Silver Streak, Steel roller coaster at Canada's Wonderland in Vaughan, Canada
Silver Streak is a steel roller coaster at Canada's Wonderland featuring a track layout spanning 342 meters with three helix elements throughout the course. The ride uses a booster wheel lift system and accommodates 20 riders per train across 10 cars.
Construction began in 2000 and the coaster opened on May 6, 2001, standing as one of the first family-oriented steel coasters of its kind. This opened a new category of rides designed for mixed-age groups at the park.
The name and design of Silver Streak draw inspiration from Canadian trains, visible in the blue track and support structure. Visitors notice this railway aesthetic throughout the ride's details and overall appearance.
Each ride lasts about 76 seconds, and the ride operates at a capacity of around 650 passengers per hour. Visit early in the morning or late in the afternoon to experience shorter wait times.
The coaster reaches speeds of about 42 kilometers per hour and climbs to just under 15 meters high. Despite its more modest proportions, it delivers a swift and entertaining ride without any upside-down elements.
