Switchback Railway (jan 1, 1892 – jan 1, 1907)

Description:

A wooden roller coaster with a height of 25 feet (7.6 m) and a speed of 10 miles per hour (16 km/h). Switchback Railway was Cedar Point's first roller coaster. It was different in that it did not have a powered lift hill so the cars needed to be pulled back to the station by hand.
