Colossus
Colossus is a racing coaster, but Magic Mountain rarely, if ever, operates both trains at the same time.

Colossus was significantly reprofiled after just one year of operation.  It was tamed down even more when it was modified again in 1991.  That year, the camelback dip was covered over by a straight section that includes a set of block brakes.  In the foreground of this picture, you can still see the original dips if you look very carefully.  Sadly, most enthusiasts believe that the changes to Colossus over the years have not helped this coaster.
