Trivia: Unlike other Superman - Ultimate Flight roller coasters built after this one, this Superman is unique in having two stations with switch tracks. This was done to improve the rides capacity knowing the load/unload time would be slower than traditional roller coasters. Later Superman - Ultimate Flight roller coasters dropped the second station and added an 8th row to the trains.
