The S&S Axis coaster would be perfect to create an insane but legal sucessor to Orphan Rocker - they should call it "Orphan Roller"

“I don’t know… maybe that would’ve been good if you didn’t ram into a tree…”

Not even Ron Toomer would approve of those transitions.

Those transitions look like something you’d see on a realistic planet coaster video

This remains one of the greatest coaster names of all time, and I'm being serious. The fact that it's located near Orphan Rock, and the cars themselves ROCK, means that "Orphan Rocker" is the PERFECT name, even though it is quite funny when you first hear it. It's up there with Circuit Breaker, Steel Eel and Boardwalk Bullet for me. More coaster names should be this clever.

The Duquesne Incline is one of two incline railways across the river from downtown Pittsburgh that take passengers from West Carson Street to Mount Washington and back. I wouldn't call them thrilling (especially compared to the one in this video), but they're very unique and scenic.

It looks like the kinda of roller coaster you make in Planet Coaster before spamming the smooth button 😂

We were at the park in the early 1980s and actually saw the Orphan Rocker cycling. We enquired about the ride and were informed it would be opening very soon. So sad that day never came. I know that the family who owned the park had all ridden it hundreds of times but it became very political, and the local council were never letting it open. RIP OR

@@stevenbrock899 thanks to your link I found the one I watched a couple years ago kzread.info/dash/bejne/qKikqdOvfdGuhZs.html which had parts in the link you sent.

There was a video I saw of a guy going through the dense woods much closer to the tracks, a few years ago. He showed the closed station where the carriages are forever parked.

Orphan Rocker is like a 80's version of Seven Dwarfs Mine Train.

They should build an alpine coaster here, potentially on Orphan Rocker's footprint if it's big enough of a descent. On the picture of steepest railways you were looking at visualised, the Duquesne railway is in Pittsburgh so the next time you go to Kennywood it might be something you check out. Although it's no where close to as impressive as the one you did looked to be.

lol, this video makes Scenic World look like a failed RollerCoaster Tycoon scenario.

It's like roller coaster tycoon come to life! Complete with lost segments in the woods!

I had no idea about the abandoned coaster. I should go back there to see for myself. Also, really glad you two rode the railway!😃I loved it, glad you did too. Didn’t get to experience the rest of the area, so a good reason to return one day (but in winter instead of summer 😅).

I did the Scenic Railway Cliffhanger mode a few years ago. It was so much fun. Glad you liked it too.

Some people want to cut corners thinking they are going to save money by doing it themselves and it ends up costing them a lot more than if they had contracted a real professional to build it.

Such a cool experience!! 🤩

I wonder if this roller coaster could be re-created in Roller Coaster Tycoon or Planet Coaster. Also, are you aware of Toboggan at Bendix Woods in the state of Indiana. That was an in-house made roller coaster and nearly beat Wiegand to the Mountain Coaster punch by over 20 years. It never opened though because it was too dangerous.

2:37 is that an actual tree that grew through the tracks? But anyways, it looks really cool, it was probably pretty fun for the people that did ride it. So much terrain interaction.

scenic world was so fun when I was there!

Reminds me of the toboggan run in the Bendix Woods County Park in Indiana.

I remember when Theme Park Crazy talked about this ride. It still fascinates me that this was pure wasted potential.

the duquesne incline is in pittsburgh! you could def check it out on your next kennywood trip

Dude the orphan rocker was the first coaster with rocking cars and WOULD have been fun because of that, and why there is no or very little banking. I am surprised you guys didn't mention the unique rocking. There are some videos of it in operation testing floating around the web. It's actually a shame it never opened as it was quite fast and the location is what would have made it. Plus track had already been removed before your visit.

I was thinking that if you liked that you should come to Pittsburgh and ride one of our two inclines, and sure enough, they put the Duquesne Incline on the sign! Props to you for pronouncing it correctly lol, seriously check it out after your next Kennywood trip!

Really intresting !

The rarest credit

orphan rocker is an amazing name

It is a pity that they did not get the Orphan Rocker running. From the little bit of footage available online it seems like a good attraction for the park with a little bit of thrill in a very beautiful setting. The idea of having rocking cars is not bad either. However, the execution of the build was absolutely sub-par. Should have asked someone who knows the business. Too bad.

its so cool I love that its still there!!! how dare you call it stupid

Rocking orphans no more. 😢

I might actually recreate this in RCT3 because this guy had a swinging car ride CTR

Sharper triangle hills than magnum 😮‍💨

Duquesne Incline is in pittsburgh, Pa.

I took my dad there to ride the train on the way to the Bathurst 1000. I wanted to ride the roller coaster when I saw the track!

Not on the list of steep railways is the Lookout Mountain Incline Railway in Chattanooga, TN, which has a 35 degree / 72.7% slope.

Does this coaster qualify as an example for the Dunning-Kruger-effect? Knowing so little about amusement ride design that you think "eh, I could do that". Transistions? G-Forces? Who needs that. I know it was built 1988, but at that time, for example Schwarzkopf and Arrow were putting out roller coasters that you could actually ride way before that.

The Profiling is just RCT3😅😂

Actually, the steepest railway is Stroosbahn Railway (listed as the second steepest on the chart) in Switzerland is at 47.7 degrees. The Katoomba Scenic Railway is steeper at 52 degrees, but despite the name, it is technically not a railway at all. It’s an inclined lift. These are facts I felt the need to share, but that no one in their right mind cares about at all.

@manbearpig900

The difference between inclined lift, and railway are not really hashed out. So a lot of people seem to grasp at whatever claim they can get. How is this not a Railway if the Stroosbahn is?

Oh for Pete’s sake it’s an inclined lift not a railway because it uses a winch system instead of a counterbalancing carriage, which funiculars use.

The segment was presented on an afternoon show called Just For The Record in Sydney in the 1980's. kzread.info/dash/bejne/mqN-lqaKgdTVoqQ.html As a regular visitor to the Blue Mountains we were waiting for it to open in the mid1980's. It never passed the official inspection and was never allowed to open to the public. When you see it in person you can understand why. Even when it was brand new it had a backyard vibe about it with dubious footings, track and home made trains. The fact that it hugged a cliff made it all the more terrifying.

I am SHOCKED that thing isnt running......... I mean........... Have you ever seen smoother transitions? Nope. You haven't. This puts RMC and B&M to shame.

We do when we have proper permission from the park. A lot of channels film illegally and we don't want to ruin our relationships with the parks by doing that. Plus, it's unsafe. So we only do it when we are allowed to. There is a whole playlist of on-ride reactions if you want to watch them!

You lose so much credibility when you say right at the start "It was pretty dangerous, they lost some sand bags." So????? SO????? Sand bags are to weigh the trains when they are going around the track for testing. If the missing sandbag myth was even true, all that tell us, that is you have no arms or legs, the restrains might not be effective. So no triple, or quadruple amputees, got it.
