  • Roller Coaster (also known as Nightmare in its later years) operated at Joyland in Wichita, Kansas, from 1949-2004. It was designed by Herbert Schmeck and John Allen and built by Philadelphia Toboggan Coasters.
    It was one of the last coasters with original trains that had only a stationary bar as a restraint. It did not have seat belts or buzz bars. It only had a single metal bar. It closed in 2004, though the park operated sporadically for a few years after. Roller Coaster was torn down in 2015.

    Nice! I don’t think the paint ever looked that nice in real life.

      I considered making the paint peeling, but I did find a few relatively recent photos of it looking freshly painted. I don't know what year they were taken, but they were in color and the surroundings looked similar to when it was sitting closed.

    A classic out and back coaster, with really well executed "air time" hills are hard to beat. I like the dog leg at the far end, in place of the normal 180 turn back. It's a nice twist.

      haha, thanks. My computer crashed, so I had to deal with that. Thankfully everything was backed up, so the only thing I lost was time

    This looks like a fun coaster.

    Shame what happened to the only notable coaster in Kansas. If this was still operating I would be able to claim coast to coast every state I would have credits in was touching by the end of next year. I'll be exploring the site of Joyland in February, I believe the equipment for this is still there like the flywheel and the trains with glorious buzbars (oh how I would've loved riding it, this looks to be one of Schmeck's best coasters and I really like Phoenix and Great Escape Comet so that's a compliment).

    It looks almost like the Bumbly Beach woodie in the old RCT games. I am currently working on a coaster in Planet Coaster that I built recently and some of the layout is remarkably similar to this. As a matter of fact alot of it is so similar it is almost scary.
    I was not even thinking about your recreation here when I built my layout.

      Did you see Wichita’s plan to build a hyper gtx by the river near the new base ball field

    Maybe a bit faster than real life, but still very well done.

      I've added that to my list, but I haven't done much research to see what photos and videos are available yet.

      I haven't ridden Thunder Eagle, but I loved it's larger Coaster Works cousin Dania Beach Hurricane. It was loaded with airtime. My most underrated coaster; now just a memory.

    Do the whalom park flyer comet,and the Lincoln park comet

    • @RaptorAlex
      @RaptorAlex  Před 2 lety +1

      I've thought about both, with Lincoln Park Comet ahead. I'm currently working on Mountain Dips at Rocky Glen. It was Miller coaster similar to Jack Rabbit at Kennywood.
