^No...
Can't remember which park Silent Hill 2 is being filmed at. I do believe it is abandoned though.
Go watch Hannah, the final scene takes place at some abandoned German park with a wolfs head on a train track. Looked pretty creepy imo.
Switching between the hideouts'...

Soooo sad!
What really gets me is how great coasters lay abondoned when they are in perfect working order and could be sold to a small park (eg pleasurewood hills)!

I found these Flickr pictures of the old Frontierland at Morecambe (or rather, the log flume - which is all that's left)

I think this ones quite interesting, it's a VERY old and unusual duelling Intamin rollercoaster that has never operated. The track is complete, however it doesn't have an electrical system, it's also quite large and features some really nice air-time hills.
It's remained SBNO since 1983: http://www.rcdb.com/1506.htm

It sucks that SFNO was left abandoned, but it will have one last shine in the light at least.
It will be featured in the new Pery Jackson movie. They brought in several flats due to them not being able to get them up and running, but they did get Mega Zeph running for one last circuit.

Major topic bump, but whatever. Probably one of the coolest/creepiest abandoned theme park pics I've seen yet:
It's from Nara Dreamland, the Disneyland ripoff in Japan that closed in 2006. Rollermonkey posted a link to some excellent pictures of it a few pages back, but here's a different one with some more great pictures:

There's a lot of Disney rip offs in Asia.Martyn B said:
Nara Dreamland was built right after Disneyland opened and had many elements that were directly copied: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nara_Dreamland
The unfinished one is outside of Beijing and actually doesn't look like a Disney rip off outside of the castle: http://www.theatlantic.com/infocus/2011 ... nd/100207/
There is also Shijingshan Amusement Park (also in Beijing) which made news because of copyright infringement on Disney characters: http://www.japanprobe.com/2007/05/02/di ... -in-china/
