Re: How many defunct roller coasters has you ridden?

I've had a quick look through RCDB at the coasters defunct in the UK, there are about 8 that jump out at me but without carefully cross-refrencing all 600+ of my coasters, it's hard to put an exact number on it.

At a guess I'd estimate that between 5-10% of my coaster count are defunct coasters.
 
Re: How many defunct roller coasters has you ridden?

I'm pretty sure for me it's just the spinning mouse thing that was on South pier in Blackpool.

I have ridden windstorm and the big Apple at Old Town but I believe those have just been relocated rather than scrapped.
 
Re: How many defunct roller coasters has you ridden?

Just Disaster Transport for me.
 
Re: How many defunct roller coasters has you ridden?

Corkscrew, AT
Super Dragon, Drayton
Big Apple, PBB
Circus Clown, PBB
Family Ride, New Brighton

I think that's it, anyway.
 
Re: How many defunct roller coasters has you ridden?

Corkscrew, AT
Python, BGT
Clown Coaster, Chessington (?)

And if we're including SBNO (with pretty much guaranteed closure for good) then Gwazi Lion and Tiger. I think that's it. I haven't counted relocations otherwise black hole and a couple of others would be on there too.
 
Re: How many defunct roller coasters has you ridden?

I can name a few defunct manufacturers if that helps?
 
Re: How many defunct roller coasters has you ridden?

I think Corkscrew at Alton is only one on my count that has been destroyed.

Though I guess Gwazi will soon be joining that.

Dragon Ride - Needles Park
Rollercoaster - Peter Pan's Amusement Park

Re: How many defunct roller coasters has you ridden?

Re: How many defunct roller coasters has you ridden?

I've never ridden a defunct roller coaster, I usually ride the ones that are operating. :p

Joking aside, though my count is low, I've ridden 2 coasters that are now defunct:
Keverbaan - Slagharen Edit: I should've done my research, it's relocated and SBNO, not defunct. (Thanks Gavin)
Tornado - Speelstad Oranje
 
Re: How many defunct roller coasters has you ridden?

Defunct isn't the same as relocated. Just saying.
