seems that it should work given the spring-like lift. I suppose a slight problem would
arise with supporting it, but this would give you a lot more speed in your models....

has anyone tried a vertical lift in Coasterdynamix? it
seems that it should work given the spring-like lift. I suppose a slight problem would
arise with supporting it, but this would give you a lot more speed in your models....

well, the problem is, that the lift doesn't curve
out, meaning that you have to make the drop tight enough so that the train will fall
after disengadging the lift, but wide enough so that the wheels and stuff don't
bind. But, if the train was long enough, it would work, in theory. I did experiment w/
mine w/ a vertical lift, but nothing realy came from it.

How long would the train need to be?

Well, if your like one of those crazies on the CD website with the 20 car trains, it would definately work. I only have 7 though. It wouldn't work.

I don't like vertical lifts and a 20 car train would just look stupid....I think Vertical lifts on CD just dosen't work out...
