Patent of one of Traver's Cyclones
Patent diagram of Giant Cyclone Safety Coaster "Jazz Track"
- ... that presaged by Jazz Railways and the Sesquicentennial Cyclone, Harry Traver’s Giant Cyclone Safety Coasters (patent drawings pictured) included such notorious rides as the Crystal Beach Cyclone, Revere Beach Lightning, Palisades Park Cyclone, and Oaks Park Zip? Source: can be verified from a number of sources, but best is Munch (1982) Harry G. Traver: Legends of Terror
- ALT 1 ... that Harry Traver's Jazz Railways, Sesquicentennial Cyclone, and Giant Cyclone Safety Coasters (including the notorious Crystal Beach Cyclone, Revere Beach Lightning, Palisades Park Cyclone, and Oaks Park Zip), all included rapidly undulating "Jazz Track" (diagram pictured)?
- Reviewed: Counting first 5 of the 11-article hook at Template:Did you know nominations/Sumitra Bhave–Sunil Sukthankar
- Comment: I've added a second, clearer image that goes with the ALT1 hook. The file is not in the article, but the entirety of the image is. Generally we allow cropped versions to show on the Main Page, correct? If anyone has an issue, I'm happy to add the cropped file into Giant Cyclone Safety Coasters.

These five articles are new enough and long enough. They do not have duplication of text between articles to any extent. Either hook could be used, the hook facts being basic to the articles. The images are from the patent application and are in the public domain. The articles are neutral and do no appear to have any copyvio issues. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 08:56, 19 July 2017 (UTC)
