Silver Comet is a wooden roller coaster with a hybrid steel frame at Martin's Fantasy Island in Grand Island, New York. The coaster can be seen from Interstate 190, which runs by Martin's Fantasy Island. The coaster is an "out and back" design, finishing in a helix. The coaster was designed based on The Comet from Crystal Beach. The Silver Comet uses trains from the Philadelphia Toboggan Company.
