The Ultimate (roller coaster)

The Ultimate was a steel roller coaster located at Lightwater Valley theme park in North Yorkshire, England.

The Ultimate was built from an investment of £5.2 million, designed from a concept created by the park's original owner, Robert Staveley.

Park owners clarified that time and effort was devoted in consideration of the ride's future.

They released a statement saying, "The ride has been out of service for some years now and the process of assessing the viability of bringing it back into use was a long one.

[5] The Ultimate began by exiting the station on a short straight track, followed by a slight curve to the left into the first lift hill.

After another slight curve to the left, the train traveled through a long stretch of straight track that cuts through a patch of woods.

After a series of small airtime hills and slight curves, the train cut through a short tunnel, followed by a helix up and to the left.

Following the second helix, the train continued on a long and slightly curved track into the final brake run, followed by a short lift hill back into the station.

Ultimate was recreated as "The Storm" in the "Katie's Dreamland" scenario in the original RollerCoaster Tycoon PC game.
