But I was impressed with some of their older coasters and their rocking Noah's Ark funhouse Pennsylvania has a couple of other nice smaller amusement parks, which feature pre-World War II coasters - Idlewild, near Ligonier on Route 30, and Lakemont Park, in Altoona, which features 'Leap the Dips,' the oldest operating coaster coaster (1902) in the U.S. Vern
