Memphis Kiddie Park and the oldest steel roller coaster still running
10340 Memphis Avenue, Brooklyn, Ohio
Stuart Wintner, who owned a chain of movie theatres, opened this park for small children on 28 May 1952 and he and his son ran it until they died. Its Little Dipper is recognised as the oldest continuously operating steel roller coaster in North America still standing where it was built. Admission and parking are free and you pay by the ride.
