RollerCoasters

A place to talk about roller coasters and parks that have them. Everyone is welcome here to both learn and to celebrate these magnificent machines designed to scare you.

Here are some important resources:

  1. RCDB
  2. Thrill Data
  3. Coast2Coaster
  4. Terminology and Abbreviations

Images are welcome if they are of high quality and it doesn't get out of hand. Please use PostImages to upload your image and then use that link in the URL field of your post (other image sites are permitted but Post Images has the best policies and compatibility).

Some basic rules:

  1. Opinions, theories, and facts are all welcome – but be clear about what you’re saying.

  2. Back up facts with sources as much as possible

  3. No spam or sell-promotion. Linking to your own media or site is permissible only if it’s specifically related to a topic/post that someone else created.

  4. No photos or videos taken on the rides. This is dangerous and shouldn't be encouraged.

  5. Limit political discussion. When discussed it must be park related.

  6. No fictional coasters (models, no limits, planet coaster, etc)

  7. No posting personal information.

  8. No shaming of anyone. We all can continue to learn and not everyone knows everything -- and that's ok.

I'm still curious how this and the one coming to BGW are going to ultimately look. There is some evidence (more so on the BGW side) that we could actually see some sort of a new train though it is strictly at rumor level right now.

Hmm yeah I wonder what they will be like. BGW is my home park so I'm sure I'll get to ride that one before I get to ride the one at BGT. Hopefully they're better than Vekoma's family suspended coasters.

I was really hoping for the first RMC Wild Moose to take Sand Serpent’s spot but I’m looking forward to seeing this one too

Yeah that would've been cool.
