History

The ride was originally called Poison Ivy's Tangled Train; however, for unknown reasons, it was rethemed to Catwoman in 2007.

There had been confusion over the coaster's actual name due to conflicting information from different sources. The park's website and map information usually named it Poison Ivy’s Twisted Train, but the sign on the roller coaster itself used the Tangled Train designation. The Six Flags website had apparently corrected this for 2006 and used the Tangled Train name until the name was changed to Catwoman's Whip in 2007.
