Twisted Sisters Roller Coaster

Steel structure and wood track coasters, which were extremely popular at the beginning of the century, fell out of favor due to the expense and inconvenience of maintaining painted steel. A new twist on an old theme, according to the architect/engineer for Lola and Stella, Kentucky Kingdom's notorious Twisted Sisters, describes its choice of galvanizing to protect this beautiful, unique coaster. Because of this choice, Lola and Stella will enjoy many decades of maintenance-free life.
