Looping Star at RCDB |
Looping Star is a steel roller coaster located at Codonas Amusement Park in Aberdeen, Scotland. It was built by Pinfari and is the only ride at the park with an inversion. It is built on top of the mini-golf and restaurant. It replaced the Galaxi roller coaster, which was moved to Loudoun Castle amusement park (now defunct).
The ride used to have three trains, but after 2010 the ride operated 2 trains, then some point in 2017 The coaster operated just 1 train (the other two are sitting on the transfer track). They use the newer Pinfari trains, which can be seen on rides built from the mid 1990s onwards.
In 2019-2020 the Looping Star was removed from Cadona’s and moved to Clacton Pier. No details have been released as to what will replace the roller coaster.
