I hope all the other moral choices come across in a way that you can read your helper as trying to convince mickey of either option depending on your read. With the constant warnings I wound up reading that with some serious Gene Wilder Willy Wonka vibes.

So the tubular roller coaster is referring to the piece of track the coaster connects to. As visible here
you can see the wheels ride along a steel cylinder as opposed to a flat rail like in older rides. The big benefit to this over flat rails is that the wheels can slide along the rail to roll the car back and forth, allowing the ride to be banked without having to properly place and maintain the proper rotation of the track. This produces a smoother ride and greatly reduces room for error, especially so back when the bobsleds were first built and everything was designed and manufactured without the precision computers allow. I'm not an engineer, just a dude who likes coasters so take all of the above with a grain of salt.
