The Classic Coaster's trains are named: Ol' Yeller, Blaz'n Blue and Or'nry Orange. |
The Classic Coaster was originally built as a side-friction roller coaster in order to accommodate the trains from the former Scenic Railway at Oaks Amusement Park in Portland Oregon. In 1950, the track was updated by Walker LeRoy and trains from the former Giant Dipper at Happyland Park in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada were utilized. |
