FeelTheFORCE Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 I searched for a similar thread and came up with nothing. I apologize if this is spam, already posted somewhere, or in the wrong board. The recent news about Geauga Lake got me thinking. Was there ever a roller coaster that was relocated to a different park, but then relocated again back to it's original park? Just curious. Note: Not counting carnival/fair coasters.

IceDragon Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 Does having a ride removed then replace a year later? If so, The Flying Fish was Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbalvey Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 There are many examples of a park removing a coaster, putting it in storage, then replacing it a few seasons later, but I really can't think of any coaster that was removed from one park only to resurface BACK at the original park after having been other places. --Robb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sticky Nicky Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 Well-Cedar Point's origanal Wildcat was sent to Valleyfair(Before being taken out for MadMouse). But a few years later they got a new one with the same layout that is still there today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete4winds Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 ^ The question is about coasters RETURNING to their ORIGINAL park/spot/etc. after moving to other parks. Your example of a coaster taking the place of an earlier identical coaster isn't exactly the same thing. And, eeerrmmm...nope. I can't think of any examples offhand.

307 Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 Well, SFFT sent SFNO Joker's Revenge aka Jester when SFNO opened, and now in 2007, SFNO is sending BTR to SFFT. So does a trade count? It's really the only thing I could think of. Horrible trade for SFFT. I'd think SFNO would need to add in a 1st round draft pick to make it a bit more even.

Carnage Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 Seemd really unlikely. Typically rides are relocated for reasons like park closures or removing an unpopular ride,etc. The reasons a park would get rid of a ride, would probably prevent the park from wanting to get it back again. Wouldn't make sense to rebuild some crappy ride that was demolished. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeemerBoy Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 Horrible trade for SFFT. I'd think SFNO would need to add in a 1st round draft pick to make it a bit more even. And the proverbial "player to be named later." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanjonesbath Posted August 31, 2007 Share Posted August 31, 2007 Brean Leisure Park in Somerset, UK sold their Crazy Mouse spinning wild mouse coaster in 2004, then bought it back for the 2006 season. Now they've sold it again, but has been replaced by another spinning mouse coaster! No idea who had it in between though, or where it's gone now!
