Steel coasters operate down to about 32-34 degrees, and i am sure wood can go down to about 35-40.

Wrong... You'll never see a steel coaster at PKI run at 32 degrees. Wood coasters have a higher tolerance for cold weather but I'm not sure on what their temp range is.

its only due to the steel on the tracks, the wooden coasters would still be a little brittle, but big steel, it gets mighty brittle at bout the freezing temp, actually, at like 18 degrees, and actually it is because it gets harder and has no "give" in it.

think this way, if its warm, then its softer, and therefore absorbs some of the stress, but if it is soo hard cold and brittle, then it can simply snap! its terrifying!

yes, it was another class, Methods and Processes in Manufacturing, which has a large portion of Metal Strengths and weaknesses.
