Kennywood West Mifflin, Pennsylvania June 2000 Page Six
This is the coaster I've been dreaming about since 1988. I first heard about the Thunderbolt since reading an article on Popular Science that basically described it as a coaster turned backwards.
Basically you do not start off by heading to the lift, you don't even get to the lift until after two good drops. Here's the train headed out of the station....
...Right down into a ravine! The other reason that the Thunderbolt is backwards is that the largest drop is the last...just the reverse of every other coaster out there.
