    Underrated classic. I'd give it a solid 7.5/10. It does have a few decent airtime spots, and its very rerideable. It always surprised me that Rye Playland was not more popular, given that it's roughly an hour north of NYC. If you're in the area it's worth a trip up there, the Dragon Coaster is the standout ride but Ye Olde Mill is also a classic (even if kind of cheesy lol), and the park has nice architecture/landscaping. I don't live in the NYC metro area anymore but when I did, I'd prefer to go there over local parks like Coney Island or Adventureland.

I'll have to go back and experience this again now as an adult enthusiast. Such a classic.

      Johnny Depp nearly lost his head on it. They shot an episode of 21 Jump Street on the Dragon were Johnny Depp's character was strapped to the track. I didn't see the "Do Not Stand" sign on the crossbeam. Did they paint over it after the guy lost his head in the mid-80's?

    Back in 1998, when I was at an age to truly be impressed by this park, it was my first coaster ride. Sadly it's probably the best ride at this uniquely government-owned park. Do you think Six Flags should buy and expand it?

    The Dragon Coaster is definitely a classic. It is one of only 3 Prior & Church designed roller coasters still operating. The other 2 are in California. 1 in the Los Angeles area and the other in the San Diego area. None of these coasters operate their original trains. They all have Morgan fiberglass trains. There has perhaps been some thought of replicating the original wooden trains for the Dragon Coaster. At this time, nothing has come of it.

    • @CoasterGuy95
      @CoasterGuy95 6 месяцев назад

      I can say firmly that standard amusements take care of the park very nicely, they’ve added new rides in place of old ones and they are trying to restore the park to its glory days by refurbishing buildings and entrances.
