Six Flags Magic Mountain Announces The NEW Revolution for 2016 World’s First Looping Coaster Gets Makeover Including Newly Designed Trains  VALENCIA, Calif. — September 3, 2015 — Six Flags Magic Mountain, the “Thrill Capital of the World,” and voted by USA TODAY readers as America’s Best Theme Park, today unveiled plans for 2016 to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the world’s first 360-degree looping coaster. The New Revolution, featuring newly designed trains, special ride effects and a new look, will highlight the Valencia theme parks’ 45th operating season. The New Revolution, the beloved steel roller coaster that has thrilled over 45 million guests in its 40-year reign at the park, will be repainted a brilliant white and blue color, while newly designed trains will be fitted with lap and calf bars, and feature Americana red, white and blue colors with a silver eagle hood adornment.

With the new trains and beautiful paint colors, The New Revolution is certain to be around for many more generations of coaster fans to enjoy,” said park president Bonnie Weber. With its new trains and makeover, The New Revolution will also feature: · The world’s first giant loop – 90 feet high and 45 feet in diameter; · Fast and furious dips and dives, built into the park’s lush hillsides; · Speeds of 55 mph; · Two minutes of thrills on 3,457 feet of track. The original Revolution steel coaster opened on May 8, 1976 as the Great American Revolution, in honor of the country’s bicentennial celebration.
