Dollywood to Debut Thunderhead Coaster in 2004
Thunderhead is the name of the new wooden coaster set to debut in 2004 at Dollywood, Pigeon Forge, Tenn.

The Great Coasters International woodie reaches speeds of 55 mph and will have a maximum drop of 100 feet. Designed by Mike Boodley with the help of the GCI staff, the coaster is a twister with 3,230 feet of track. It's built on the sides of two mountains and makes use of the valley between them.

The coaster will feature what officials are calling the world's first "fly-through" station. About half way through the ride, the trains come back through the station on a track eight feet above the exit platform, but still under the station roof. It will be traveling at 40 mph at that point. The ride will be the centerpiece of a new themed area of the park called Thunderhead Gap.
