Coasters A-Z

I thought Ultimate was just "Ultimate" anyway? It is on RCDB...

There IS a chance I could have all 26, because there is a chance I rode AA's Mine Train in 96, (I'd been and ridden prior to Oblivion's opening, but that means it MAY have been 97...), but, I can't in good conciousness say yes... :(
 
I'm only missing Y if Ultimate is missing the "The".
There's only 3 coasters currently operating that begin with Y as well (Canobie, Benyland and Yahoo! Park), and the chances of me getting any of these are low. :(
 
RCDB's database drops the articles (A, An and The) from the beginning of any coaster name. The official name may begin with these words, though.

According to RCDB, there are only 4 coasters in the world that begin with the letter Y:

Yagiyama Cyclone - Benyland
Yahoo! Mountain - Yahoo! Park
Yankee Cannonball - Canobie Lake Park
Yun Xiao Fei Che - Jin Jiang Action Park


So quite a limited number really.

In an embarrasment of riches, I've been on two of those.
:oops:

Oh, and I only just completed the alphabet this summer when I rode Quicksilver Express at Gilroy Gardens.
 
You don't count the 'The', same as you don't rank it under T because its got 'The' in it.

I've got missing H, J, P, Q, Y Z

E
G
H

Ditto.

I visited AA a few times as a kid, the last time in 1998 (didn't go to the live or anything), so the chances are I rode the Mine Train in 1996, but I'm not sure, so i'll leave it as a no just because I'm not 100%.
