  1. So many Arrow-designed roller coasters seem to be on the rumored chopping block this off-season. It's a sad list to browse.

    But even as more and more Arrows fade into distant memory, there are some Arrows we feel will never leave us. Here's our top 5 list of Arrow-designed coasters that we don't see hitting the scrap yard anytime soon. Any you'd add to this list??

    This legendary coaster was ahead of its time in design and appeal, and remains a popular ride at the park despite its 44 years of operation.

    I'm a sucker for Arrow coasters and racing coasters, so this will always be a favorite of mine.

    There are basically two standard opinions with LNM - those who love it and those who hate it. I am firmly in the former camp. I love this old gal, no matter how rough she rides sometimes.

  19. The Dragon is a defunct #ArrowDynamics roller coaster that operated at Ocean Park in #HongKong from 1984 until 2021. You can just feel your head slamming off those OTS restraints, can't you?

    This ride went through several paint jobs over the years. The best might be the absolute kaleidoscope of a paint job it received in its final years.
