Originally the rails were pink and the supports were pink-red. The track was repainted for the 2006 season. Now both the rails and the supports are white. In 2008, the runway was rebuilt for 1.2 million US dollars . This included new trains. Fly - The Great Nor'Easter has two trains with ten cars each. Two people (in a row) can be seated in each carriage. Originally the trains were equipped with shoulder bars. As a safety system, the new trains have lap bars and elastic vests that hold back the upper body.
