adj
-
(slang)A roller coaster or other ride at an amusement park which is assembled, and not formally defunct, but not operational or open to the public.
“After 2 years of maintenance, the dark ride is still SBNO.”
“The Blue Streak did not operate for a few years in the 1990s; in fact it was added to a list of endangered coasters, classified as SBNO (Standing But Not Operating) by the American Coaster Enthusiasts.”
“For a bit of background, the original Gwazi was a dual-tracked wooden coaster - the only wooden coaster at Busch Gardens Tampa Bay - which became increasingly rough, causing the Tiger side to be closed in 2012 and the Lion side to be SBNO since 2015.”
“Built in 1995, this coaster was listed as standing but not operating (SBNO) from 2010-2014 when the park was closed and then reopened in 2015 when the original Vekoma trains were replaced by a single new train from KumbaK, and later a second train in 2016.”
