Launched coasters
Motors or hydraulics replace or supplement the lift hill for rapid acceleration.
Flywheel launches
Store energy in a spinning mass, then dump it into the train in one burst — classic hydraulic acceleration feel.
How launches work
LIM, LSM, hydraulic — different ways to shove a train from rest to serious speed.
