Kanonen

You can see two steel plates jutting up from the track on this little hill before the vertical loop.  These trim brakes interact with magnets mounted on the bottom of the track to slightly slow each train.  This simple system doesn't require any power and just uses magnetic forces to control the train's speed.  You can also see two blue rails that would have allowed more fins to be installed if required.
