Meteornotes Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 Been trying to think if I have any "rare" credits and can't really come up with one, though the boomerang they welded back together for us to ride in South Korea comes close! dt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jew Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 The Intamin half pipe on the roof of a building in the Roppongi district of Tokyo would certainly qualify as rare, since it never actually opened and is still just sitting there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Clinksalot Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 Percy's Railway. I literally begged on my knees the last time and I still didn't get to ride it. See, that ride has been there for so long that I don't consider it rare. I have the credit (when I was about 5) and have a picture of myself on it for proof. It was Clown Coaster then though.

Jerrykoala2112 Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 I was able to visit this random park in Sweden in 2003 and in 2009, so I have both defunct credits as well as the one still operating. I wouldn't consider this credit as amazing, but it operated from 2009-2011 and not many people have ridden it. Ölands Djur & Nöjespark: http://rcdb.com/4913.htm The rare credit at the park...

805Andrew Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 I would say the coasters at the Funfair parks in Pyongyang, North Korea just because the access to the country is so restricted (even though they allow certain tours now) and is even more restricted if your American. Even you managed to make it to DPRK, I would imagine it would be hard to get all the credits in one trip, as all the planets would probably have to aligned to have the all the coasters operating at once (not even including the SBNO ones) or to be granted access to all the parks. http://coolthingsinrandomplaces.com/?p=265 http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=d74_1226206457 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EquusStorm Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 Well there was a tiny, ancient, rough as hell Schiff truck-mount kiddie coaster that (according to RCDB) only operated from 2002-2004 in a tiny, now defunct park in Gulf Shores, AL, that was made a thing of the past by financial troubles and Hurricane Ivan in '04; my brother and I rode it in probably 2003, being small enough at the time to fit, but that's hardly even a half-credit if a credit at all, and I'm sure there are tens of thousands of other kids who had been on it. That's about all I got. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henry M Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Post below any coaster you have been on that you think of as being rare (not many people have been on it) and if you are on Coaster-Count check to see how many enthusiasts actually have been on the coaster. Please post pictures if you have some, so we can all see what they are like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FSUFanChris Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Both are no longer there... Flying Super Saturator at Carowinds and Dania Beach Hurricane at Boormers! in Florida. I only miss Hurricane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K1ngdaKa88 Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 My rarest "coaster" is an alpine coaster in Switzerland which no longer exists. It's Bob Run at Heimwehfluh, Interlaken, Siwtzerland. (6 riders on cc) My rarest real coaster is right now the Drifting Coaster, but just because it is so new and doesn't had many riders yet. (20 riders on cc) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coasterbill Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 (edited) The kiddy coaster at Rye Playland. It's a classic coaster with a strict policy on adults riding, but I got the credit when I was a kid. Also, I don't ride kids coaster anymore unless the front car looks like Shamu so my girlfriend makes me.

Genx24 Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Viper @ Great Adventure. Not so much the credit itself, but when I got it. 2004 was its last year of operation, and it was almost always SBNO at that time anyway. Somehow I was able to be at the park on one of the few days it actually opened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickenbowl Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Dare Devil at the Boomer's in Upland, CA and the Zierer kiddie coaster at Darien Lake. I rode both of these coasters in 2001 when I was 7. The Boomers coaster was removed shortly after that. Next are some random traveling credits I rode at the SD County Fair. I also have ridden the newish kiddie spinning coaster at Silverwood, which I think is rare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michaellynn4 Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 According to Coaster-Count, my rarest coaster is Jet Star at Casino Pier in Seaside Heights, NJ. No, not Star Jet, the coaster that infamously fell into the ocean after Superstorm Sandy, but Jet Star, the coaster that Star Jet replaced. It was removed back in 2000. rcdb.com/344.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FLIPDUDE Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 (edited) There's two The first is Rakevet Harim at Luna Grand in Haifa. It's such a rare credit only one other person is registered on CC as having ridden it, and even the managment of the park it's in doesn't know who the hell built it. The latter one is a weird little coaster I rode while it was traveling around the country in a dinky little excuse for a traveling fair (I could probably fit the whole thing in my car's trunk). CC lists it as nobody else having ridden it. Edited June 6, 2016 by FLIPDUDE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
technfxrick Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 For me it is Mining Coaster at Taman Safari Indonesia, Gusanito de Esquilania at Esquilandia in Guatemala and Harvest Time at Jungleland in Indonesia. I then have 8 more that only have 3-5 riders, mostly in Indonesia, Guatemala and Japan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
