Medusa1861 Posted July 19, 2006 Posted July 19, 2006 Thunderhawk: 1923 Does that count even though they pretty much rebuilt it?
Rollerholden Posted July 19, 2006 Posted July 19, 2006 Giant Dipper at Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk - 1924 And it's in my top 3 woodies.
phazan Posted July 19, 2006 Posted July 19, 2006 Giant Dipper at SCBB. 7th oldest operating coaster, built in 1925. Don't quote me on those facts...
Thrillrider15 Posted July 19, 2006 Posted July 19, 2006 The High Roller at Valleyfair!. Opened in 1976 (ACE's are fun ).
Finrock Posted July 19, 2006 Posted July 19, 2006 Vuoristorata at Linnanmäki, opened 1951, and it's still one of my favourites:)
waterviper Posted July 19, 2006 Posted July 19, 2006 Giant Dipper at San Diego's Belmont Park. 1925 This historical classic went through 3 names (Rollercoaster, Earthquake, Giant Dipper) and a devastating fire but it survived!!! Technically it had 4 names. Its first name was Giant Dipper before it went through the identity crisis phase!!
vjgx Posted July 19, 2006 Posted July 19, 2006 Dragon Coaster at Playland Park (Rye, NY). It was opened in 1929... and is still running. I rode it a couple weeks ago, and it's still amazingly smooth. Heck, it's about 20 times smoother than GhostRider at KBF... and that opened in 1998!!
