There’s good news for roller coaster aficionados.
Weeks after Kiddieland Amusement Park closed in Maywood, Six Flags Great America has bought its famed wooden roller coaster — The Little Dipper — and hopes to have it running by next summer.
“It’s a piece of history for ChicagoChicago reviews
, and we
wanted to keep it local,” Six Flags president Hank Salemi said.
The roller coaster will still be called The Little Dipper as it joins 13 other roller coasters at Six Flags Great America.
the roller coaster was built in 1950 by the Philadelphia Toboggan Co.
It sold for $36,300 at an auction at Kiddieland this past week.
