Jazz Railway, Wooden roller coaster in Moosic, Pennsylvania, US

Jazz Railway featured a steel-frame structure combined with wooden tracks, spanning 1,200 feet in length and reaching 26 feet in height.

Built in 1925 at Rocky Glen Park, this roller coaster operated for two years before closing in 1927, representing early innovations in amusement park rides.

The name Jazz Railway connected with the music trends of the 1920s, marking a period of entertainment development in American amusement parks.

The prefabricated steel support structure allowed quick assembly and dismantling, making it possible to relocate the coaster between different locations.

This coaster introduced a specialized jump track design that created rapid side-to-side movements for riders during their journey.
