Scenic Railway Roller Coaster

About

Roller Coaster – also known as Scenic Railway or The Scenic – is a wooden roller coaster at Great Yarmouth Pleasure Beach, Great Yarmouth, UK. The ride was built at the park in 1932 and has been operational since. It is the only scenic railway still in operation in the UK and one of only seven in the world.

In common with most scenic railways, an operator rides the car. Traditionally referred to as a 'brakesperson’, the operator applies brakes on the car to control its speed and to stop it at the end of the ride, as there are no brakes on the track. It is the second tallest and second fastest wooden roller coaster in the UK.

It is also a Grade II listed building.
