Excalibur is a wooden roller coaster at Funtown Splashtown USA in Saco, Maine.[1] It was built by Custom Coasters International and has since seen retracking by Martin & Vleminckx.[2] It is 100 feet tall (though its largest drop is only 82 feet), 2,700 feet long, and runs at top speeds of 55 mph.
It is the only wooden roller coaster in the state of Maine, and was the first wooden coaster in Maine since 1948 when it opened in 1998.[1]
The ride runs with a single Philadelphia Toboggan Coasters train. The ride's name is taken from King Arthur's sword, Excalibur.
