A look at the ride's wheel assembly. Of note is that the wheels are fixed rather than spring-loaded as on many modern coasters. The spine down the centre of the car is the brake fin for the friction brakes. Maurer Sohne use a box-style brake style similar to B&M whereas most friction brakes use thin fins of metal down the centre of the car.
