	Phantom's Revenge Roller Coaster - Kennywood \| Ride Review
		Kennywood is a traditional amusement park with a rich history dating back more than a hundred years.
		In the early 90's the park opened a ride that many would not have expected to find at a traditional amusement park, the Steel Phantom, a modern steel roller coaster so large that it would remain one of the tallest and fastest steel coasters of its kind for its existence.
		Kennywood Park decided in the late 80's and early 90s that they needed something big and fast in their park, so they contacted Arrow Dynamics the leading steel coaster designer at the time.
