As I was sitting playing RCT and picking color schemes for some of my coasters, it dawned on me that I've never seen a rollercoaster painted black. X-Flight looks like it *might* be, but I cant really tell. I used to think B:TR @ SFGAm was, but if you look up close it's really more of a midnight blue. Just wondering if any of you know of a black painted rollercoaster.

Here's a few I think are black, or at least near-black:
Vortex @ PKI
BTR @ SFStL
Katun @ Mirabilanda (sp?) in Spain
and Oblivion @ Alton Towers
Dale
I think the Demon at SFGam is along with Ninja and River King Mine Train at SFSL. T2 at SFKK is as well. I'm not sure on all of these but these are the ones off the top of my head that I have ridden that are black.
Vortex @ PKI is blue.
Double Loop @ (Geauga Lake) was all black
I think big bad wolf @ BGW is black as are
Iron Dragon @ CP
The original Steel Phantom was black\
I think Anaconda @ PKD is black, but i'm not sure
Demon and Top Gun at PGA are black.
dalep-Katun is in Italy.

4/11/01 First snow day for BVSD schools in 8 years!
Great Adventure's Lightning Loops was black.
Coasting_Ohio, Iron Dragon is red, and BBW is red also. A true black coaster is Ninja at SFStL. B:TR at SFStL is navy blue if you look closely.

Black and blue would have been more fitting!
The Viper over at Six Flags Darien Lake was pure black... black track and black supports up until the 1999 season when it was given a new paint job since it converted to a Six Flags park. Now it's a green track with black supports.
It was getting rather old with black & black... so this kind of breathed a new life into the 5-looper.
Also in the area... Dragon Mountain at Marineland, Canada has black track with black supports. I think that rather fits well with the layout.
...And of course the track on the Flight of Fear rides is all black. For a time, all of the FunTime looping coasters...Viper at Darien Lake, Corkscrew and Double Loop at Geauga Lake...were all black. T^2 at Kentucky Kingdom used to be red, but now it is black. Also at Kentucky Kingdom, the Starchaser was black...that's now the Nightmare at Something or Other at The Great Escape, and I'm guessing that it is still black. The inside of the track on Cedar Point's Disaster Transport is black, as is the steel on the Cedar Creek Mine Ride.

First of all I'm not sure what your saying, second of all I think your saying that Shockwave@PKD is black, then your wrong it is rainbow colored (this is not a good thing BTW).

Flight of Fear at PKD, Tornado at a fair in Nags Head.

Good Question.

The track on the old Steel Phantom was black, right? The rails were white though.
