    Long live the memory of The Orient Express. I miss that damn coaster.

      I couldn’t have said it better myself. That roller coaster should be rebuilt.

    You know the only ride on this list that I can't understand why they removed it from the park is Zambezi Zinger because it was a great family ride and the park doesn't really have anything like that nowadays, it would have been the best ride to keep around. Luckily it still operates in Colombia, so it's not completely lost, but I still wish it was in Worlds of Fun

      Zinger really was/is a maintenance nightmare, I believe the park (WOF) budgeted on fixing it but when the price tag went over $2 million they decided to invest in.a new attraction instead. Knowing what we know today they should have budgeted more to save Zinger. I think some of that was based on the fact that they had just bought the park so did not fully realize the impact that taking Zinger out would be.

    Screamroller's double barrel corkscrews.

      The Screamroller was already gone apparently before my first visit there as a kid. It looks very similar to the EXT. Can you shed some light on this? Was the EXT just a new or different version of the Screamroller?

    Miss all of these coasters especially ZZ. I was very young when I rode Schussboomer but I remember it being pretty intense for what looked like a small coaster.

    Luckily, the creators of Worlds of Fun and Oceans of Fun were not stupid and thought that a 168 foot tall water slide was a good idea.

    • @extremeroller
      @extremeroller  Před 3 lety

      It didn't have any specific IP theme, it was more generic asian themed. The name of the Express came from the Agatha Christie novel "Murder on the Orient Express"

    While the Orient Express was an impressive coaster I do not miss it one bit. First ride and it wrenched my neck on the one odd turn [half corkscrew followed buy a turn] that I'm sure injured others as well. Ruined my visit that day.
