2 Beloved Rides To Be Demolished At Six Flags Magic Mountain

Six Flags Magic Mountain is planning to demolish two of its classic rides — including one that originated at the theme park that inspired Walt Disney to create Disneyland.

Six Flags has filed permits to demolish Magic Flyer, a kids roller coaster, and an unnamed "steel swing ride," which is believed to be Tweety's Escape, KTLA reported, citing Los Angeles County records.

Magic Flyer was originally located in Beverly Park, a former Los Angeles theme park that served as an inspiration for Disney's Anaheim resort. The 70-year-old roller coaster was relocated from Beverly Park before Magic Mountain opened in 1971.

The steam engine-themed ride climbs a 10-foot hills before dropping into gentle turns and returning to the station. It tops out at 10 mph.

Tweety's Escape, named after the "Looney Tunes" character, features kid-sized bird cages that sway in a circle. It opened in 1985.

Earlier this year, Six Flags announced it would permanently close the troubled Superman roller coaster at Magic Mountain.

“We understand that saying goodbye to beloved rides can be difficult, but this change is part of a much larger plan to enhance the guest experience for families. We look forward to sharing the exciting details soon," a Six Flags spokesperson told Patch.

At a corporate level, Six Flags has been undergoing changes following an investment from NFL superstar Travis Kelce and an investment firm. The company reported a $31 million year-over-year loss in its most recent quarterly earnings report, SFGATE reported.

The company is planning on closing under-performing parks, including one in the Bay Area: California’s Great America.
