S&S Worldwide has introduced RailRyder, a brand-new single-rail family coaster—and ACE got an exclusive look at both the prototype in Logan, Utah, and the official vehicle unveiling at IAAPA Expo 2025.
In Logan, ACE’s Tim Baldwin spoke with S&S CEO Jason Mons and COO Preston Perkes about the design, the ride experience, and how RailRyder draws inspiration from the classic Arrow Dynamics Steeplechase coaster.
At IAAPA Expo 25, ACE Podcast Host Jessica Gardner met with Trever Dyer for a first look at the RailRyder car and the new “mine train” themed vehicle that highlights S&S’s Arrow heritage.
RailRyder launches with three sizes, from a compact family-thrill model to a large two-lift version capable of more than 1,100 riders per hour.
Could this be the next big family coaster category?
