A gift from my wife at Christmas and the kids gave me the add-on entry/exit platform. Got it in kit form and it was easy to assemble and paint. I'm going to add an LED sign on the front spelling out the name - BIG DIPPER. The restraining bars do raise and lower in each car but do not lock in place. I placed a figure in the first car and he took a spill after the first dip. Fatal. I guess I will have to glue the people in. Great addition to my growing park. You can see construction has begun on the Monorail system in the background as I won't be able to access it later as rides will block it.

Picture of the cars that look neat.

Yes it is a little on the big side - 7 ft 8 in long with the loading/unloading platform at the one end and around 14 in deep. They do offer a smaller footprint model called the Comet that is around half the size.
