Six Flags America
Largo, Maryland
This park is just off the Beltway east of Washington, D.C. It started in 1982 as Wild World. Water rides were the main attraction in the early years, but thrill rides began to dominate. However, the park went bankrupt in 1990 and remained closed until it was purchased by the Tierco Group in 1992. It's name was changed to Adventure World in 1993. Six Flags purchased it a few years later, and in 1999 it became Six Flags America.
In 1993, they acquired from Six Flags Great Adventure one of the two Arrow shuttles operating as Lightning Loops. They renamed it Python. It was put into storage at the end of the 1998, but was scrapped in 2005. In 1998, the Cannonball, a kiddie coaster from Molina, left the park. Ultra Twister, the Pipeline coaster from Six Flags Astroworld, was moved here in 2006. It has remained in storage, and is not expected to be rebuilt.
