Pikajuna, Powered roller coaster at Linnanmäki amusement park, Helsinki, Finland
Pikajuna is a powered coaster at Linnanmäki that winds through the park along a spiral track layout. The train features 10 cars carrying 40 passengers on a ride lasting roughly one minute and 35 seconds.
The ride opened in 1990 as City Express and received its current Finnish name in 2004. This renaming was part of a broader effort to give the park's attractions local language names.
The name Pikajuna reflects the Finnish language integration in Linnanmäki park, representing the direct translation of Express Train in the local tongue.
The ride offers a quick experience, making it suitable for visitors seeking brief fun without spending much time. It sits in a central location within the park and is easy to locate.
The track passes beneath sections of the Taiga roller coaster, creating an interesting overlap with another park attraction. This is one of the less obvious details visitors can spot while exploring the park.
