simon8899 Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 Rutschebanan (1914) at Tivoli Copenhagen here also oldest wood coaster ever ridden. The oldest steel would be the Matterhorn Bobsleds (1959) and the Schwarzkopf Wildcat (1964). All are still in operation - the Wildcat even travelling on german fairs.

GigaG Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 Oldest - Thunderhawk @ Dorney Park  Oldest Steel - I don't know, Cedar Creek Mine Ride probably.
AstroDan Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 Big Dipper, Pleasure Beach Blackpool 1923 although parts of the Nick Streak opened originally as the Velvet Coaster in 1909. Â My oldest steel is probably Steeplechase, Blackpool (1977) or Thunder Looper, Alton Towers - which originally opened 1977 at Kings Dominion as King Cobra. Â
The49er Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 Oldest Wood: Giant Dipper @ SCBB - 1924 Oldest Steel: Matterhorn Bobsleds @ DL - 1959 Â Newest Wood: Roar @ SFDK - 2000? Newest Steel: Tatsu @ SFMM - 2006
galindoverhere Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 Blue Streak at Cedar Point, and that ride STILL packs a punch!
niiicolaaah Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 Leap-the-Dips. Eat it everyone! Â Meeee too.
kcjensen Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 Cyclone (Astroland): 1927 Cyclone (Lakeside): 1940 Runaway Mine Train (SFOT): 1966
GigaG Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 Scratch what i said about CCMR being my oldest steel, i think it was the Texas mine train
cfc Posted February 19, 2012 Posted February 19, 2012 For me, it's the Scenic Railway at Luna Park in Melbourne. The park has been operating it since 1912. Â
MayTheGForceBeWithYou Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 Giant Dipper at Santa Cruz (1924)
The Angry Darren Mullins Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 Leap The Dips at Lakemont Park.
djcyberlegend Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 So far - Thunderbolt at SFNE, operating since 1941. Wild One at SFA (1917) is on my bucket list since I never got to ride it as a kid when it was Giant Coaster at Paragon Park.
Jivo Posted February 20, 2012 Posted February 20, 2012 For me: Â Leap the Dips @ Lakemont Park (1902) Big Dipper @ Blackpool Pleasure Beach (1923) Â I think they are the oldest I've ever complete
