Jetline in Gröna Lund ( Stockholm , Stockholms län , Sweden ) is a steel roller coaster that was manufactured in collaboration with BHS-Bayerische Berg-, Hütten- und Salzwerke and Zierer Rides and opened in 1988. Due to the optical proximity to older Schwarzkopf systems, it is often assumed that the train was also produced by Schwarzkopf. The similarities can be explained by the consultant position that Anton Schwarzkopf took on after the bankruptcy of his company at Zierer. An almost identical system called BMRX was delivered to the Japanese Kobe Portopialand and equipped with a mountain range that was reminiscent of the landscape of a model railroad. Such a mountain massif was also planned for Jetline , which explains the oversized support structure of the railway. Since the railway was very well received by the public even without decorative elements, the mountain range has remained history to this day. For reasons of space, the park decided in 2003 to run the Vilda Musen roller coaster through the existing steel structure from Jetline, using the structure that was once designed for an additional mountain massif. In 2002 and 2003 she drove under the name Berg-och Dalbanan . The 800 m rail length was built on a very compact base, similar to the mobile roller coasters from Schwarzkopf . A technical special feature here is the lift hill is that and is not the same features despite curve over a chain lift usual via a friction wheel drive.
The original first drop followed by a steep curve was rebuilt in 2000 by the Stengel GmbH engineering office in collaboration with Maurer Söhne so that the first drop is higher and steeper than before. After its departure, the train drives into a tunnel within a restaurant, followed by the steep curve that has also been modified. After the renovation, the total height is 30 m and the trains accelerate to 90 km / h on the first departure. Accelerations of up to 4.5 g are effective .
