Brakeman (Roller Coaster)
A rare type of coaster feature where the ride operator actually rides on the coaster train, and uses a lever to manually operate the brakes as the coaster travels the circuit, and to stop it when it returns to the station. Such coasters - generally old models - have no automatic brakes like those found on more modern rides.
