The Green Dragon was a wooden roller coaster located at Lake Compounce in Bristol, Connecticut. It opened in 1914 but was later replaced by the Wildcat. It was the first electrically-powered roller coaster at the nation's oldest continuously-operating amusement park.

This roller coaster was demolished in 1927 to make way for the Wildcat.
