Discover Xpress: Platform 13
Our tips:
- Pay attention in the queue
- Are you very tall?
- Consider Fast Lane
Xpress: Platform 13
Xpress: Platform 13 is the launch coaster on Main Street. After a thrilling walk through an eerie, abandoned metro station, you board the train. You're then launched to 90 kilometres per hour in 2.8 seconds.
The concept
The coaster was built by Vekoma and used to be called Superman The Ride. Many visitors still call it that. During a major renovation in 2013, the station, the brake section and the queue were given a roof. The queue was also themed as the fictional Glenbrook Station at that time.
The Experience
Straight after the launch you shoot into the track, through the Sea Serpent and the Corkscrew. The coaster is known for its high G-forces: you'll experience up to 5G. The track is 1,040 metres long and 26 metres high. The ride lasts about 1 minute and 15 seconds.

Pay attention in the queue
The queue is an abandoned metro station: Glenbrook Station. Have a good look around, as there's plenty to see along the way.
Are you very tall?
The park warns that the ride may be less comfortable for guests taller than 2 metres.
Consider Fast Lane
Want a shorter wait? With Fast Lane you reserve a slot digitally and enter via the Fast Lane entrance. You can buy it in the ticket shop or in the Walibi app; park admission is not included.
Visitor information
You must be at least 1.20 metres tall. The ride is not suitable for pregnant women. With baby switch, parents don't have to queue twice: one parent rides, while the other waits with the child at the exit and then boards via the exit. At Xpress: Platform 13 you can also buy a photo of your ride. If you use the accessibility scheme, report to the exit via the Till Ya Drop Shop.
Off the platform, fast
