Locomotion is a family roller coaster at Steel Pier on the Atlantic City Boardwalk in New Jersey. RCDB classes it as a family coaster with a twin-helix layout.
History
The coaster was built by SBF Visa Group, an Italian ride maker, and opened at Steel Pier in 2013. RCDB lists the model as a Double Coaster (MX605) with a single train of five cars and no inversions. In early 2017 the ride was taken down while the pier's observation wheel was built, and it later returned to the pier.
Riders must be at least 42 inches tall to ride with an adult and 48 inches to ride alone.
