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 one of only two scenic railways still in operation in the UK (the other being the Scenic Railway at Dreamland Amusement Park, Margate) and one of only seven in the world. In common with most scenic railways, an operator rides the car. Traditionally referred to as a 'brakeman’, 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.

  • Der Roller Coaster, auch bekannt als the Scenic oder Scenic Railway Roller Coaster (engl. Achterbahn), ist eine Holzachterbahn vom Typ „Scenic Railway“ im Great Yarmouth Pleasure Beach in Great Yarmouth. Die Bahn wurde dort 1932 aufgebaut und ist seitdem in Betrieb. Er ist einer der letzten acht Scenic Railways der Welt und der letzte in Großbritannien. Eine Besonderheit ist der mitfahrende „Bremser“, der statt auf der Strecke montierten Bremsen, mit einer am Zug befindlichen Bremse jederzeit die Geschwindigkeit senken kann. Die Bahn ist außerdem die zweithöchste und zweitschnellste Holzachterbahn in Großbritannien. (de)
