Disaster Transport                                       Thrill Rides

In the Dark!I'm losing control! Passengers on Disaster Transport are taken on a dark journey through action-packed twists and unexpected turns in a completely enclosed structure. This unique ride is the only coaster at Cedar Point that does not run on a track. Instead, Disaster Transport runs in a steel trough, which gives it a special feel and one-of-a-kind bobsled ride experience. Disaster Transport has given more than 19.5 million rides since 1985.
