Excalibur is a wooden roller coaster at Funtown Splashtown USA in Saco, Maine. It is the tallest and longest roller coaster in Northern New England.[1] The ride runs with a single 2-bench Philadelphia Toboggan Company train.
It is the only wooden roller coaster in the state of Maine, and the first wooden coaster in Maine in 50 years when first opened.[1] The ride exists as the only ride in the Nottingham Forrest section of the park.
