Below is a work-in-progress list of current rides. See the Extinct Rides page for a list of former rides no longer operating.
Links in red are pages that have not been created yet. The templates used for these pages are still evolving, so I am waiting to do the bulk of the pages once I have a better idea of what a ride page should contain. Currently, it will be a description of the ride, information box, trivia and external links. It may make sense to include more information for specific types of rides. For example, a roller coaster might include top speed, track length, number of inversions/loops, etc. while a kiddie ride might not. :)
