Obsure Coaster & Thrill Ride Records

I've quickly updated the Records page to include a few extra milestones: http://www.coasterforce.com/coasters/records

Can you think of any other records worth including?

The goonier, the better. One I'd like to include is "Most relocated coaster", but I haven't a clue. I'm guessing it's an apple coaster or some kiddie oval.
 
The oldest operating coaster you posted is incorrect. I'll fix it. :wink:
 
About the most relocated coaster, I believe this one would take the crown.

At least of those on rcdb... But maybe there is some Chinese knock-off Wacky Worm, which changes its location every second year and none of foreigners have ever hear about
 
^Had to be a Schwarzkopf, didn't it? :)
They seem to last forever and are so easy to relocate.
 
^That's exactly the kind of thing Ian's looking for Dan. :)

^^I've changed the most expensive coaster. Thanks Hammer.

I remember Mark being on the train that broke the record. Was a strange morning in the park lol.

Not that I'm doubting you Dan, but please could you post an official source to prove it. If we're going to have this page, we have to make sure it's correct. Unless ECG confirmed by checking different sources before he updated the page...?

Longest lift hill? Coaster with most lift hills? Highest coaster in the world (which I think is that one at Colorado Springs)? The list is endless. I really need to get my goon on.

Re: Obsure Coaster & Thrill Ride Records

^ It entirely depends on whether you want to include theming in the cost of the coaster. If it's a record for most expensive coaster - as in the actual ride and not all the guff surrounding it - then SD2000 is the most expensive.

Could we maybe have two records?

It's also in Aidan's Guinness Book of World Records as the most expensive coaster ever built.

Myself personally would say most expensive including themeing because it is part of the ride but that's just me cool)
 
I agree. The theming is really what makes that ride a ride- without it, it would just be a boring mine coaster.
