Orphan Rocker in Scenic World ( Katoomba , New South Wales , Australia ) is a steel roller coaster built in 1988 by an Australian company. However, due to numerous problems, the railway was not opened. Since the 1990s, parts of the track have been redesigned and rail segments have been replaced. In 2006 it was announced that the work would be discontinued. Even if the rails have not been dismantled, an opening is not planned.
The 840 m long route takes advantage of the surrounding rainforest . This also includes a curve on the edge of a cliff over 200 m high. The car should have the ability to swing from side to side while driving.
