20 years ago my family took a trip to Australia. We went here and I was memorized by the coaster track and the lore. It had 0 business being where it was. It made no sense. It had been ongoing or 20 years. It was beautiful.

Thankyou! I've been obsessed with this thing for over 30 years now, I was sure I saw it as a kid. I told my parents, they don't remember, no one remembers, but I recall seeing it when I went on holidays once as a kid with my parents. Now I finally after all these years can connect a distant series of fragmented memories which are more akin to fuzzy fading screenshots in my mind with what it actually was. I given up years ago on looking for what it was, because all I knew were memories in my head, then suddenly this shows up in my feed. Thankyou. I knew I wasn't imagining it!

I'm honestly pretty sure I'm in the same boat, weird memories but I was too small to remember more and this looks like it!

Man, I've always wondered what this coaster track was for. It always creeps me out when I see it.

For Context, the property where this is located has an operating "sky way" (Basically a Gondola over the valley) & an Old Mine cart railway that you can ride (& is apperantly the steepest railway in the world ) ..... Anyway if you grew up In the Sydney / Blue Mountains areas, every kid remembers seeing this track for the first time. Look Im 40 years old now and I still want to ride it !!!! Also 3:07 check out the Old Gondola for the old sky way ~ still remember looking down off the edge of that thing when I was 5 or 6 years old ~ only 270 metres to the valley below !

Named after Orphan Rock which is a large rock feature on the cliff just below the tourist park.

That thing always looked home-made and overly ambitious - a dangerous combination.

My dad was a welder by trade and had a stint doing maintenance at that tourist facility. He told me if the Orphan Rocker ever opened then NEVER get on it given the quality of the welding!

Visited this venue 5 years ago and asked about the coaster. Was shown where it was parked up and they helped with some photos of the carriage.

a lot of the very little footage we have of it was sped up for effect on TV.
