Answer 1

There are several different manufacturers out there. Some steel coaster companies include Intamin (Kingda Ka, Superman:Ride of Steel), Vekoma (Boomerang, T2), Schwarzkopf (Mindbender, Shockwave-Six Flags Over Texas, lots of Shockwaves out there!)  Bolliger and Mabillard (Batman the Ride)and more.

S&S produces tower rides such as Scream (Fiesta Texas) and Superman Tower of Power (Six Flags Over Texas).

There are too many companies out there to list here, but do some surfing! I will include a few websites:

Answer 2

there is really not one company. there are several companies that develop thrill rides. you can go to any of them (providing you have the money) and you can look through a catalog and pick the ride you want. they can customize the ride or if you have an idea for a ride, they can adjust one of their existing rides to fit the idea. example, the rock and roller coaster. it was modified to be an indoor coaster, fit in the space provided and cars were modified to look like stretch limos.

go to the roller coaster database (www.rcdb.com) and you can see who makes all the different coasters.
