Kennywood Park is in a class of its own when comparing it to other theme parks. It's not nearly as large as Six Flags but many of the coasters have been featured on television specials for their age, design, or thrill-factor. The park is a Pittsburgh landmark as one of the city's premiere trolley parks, which has since evolved into a large amusement park with several wooden and steel coasters. There is an emphasis on history here, as the entire part (in addition to several rides) are national historic landmarks. I'd give it 5 stars, but the cost of admission has been steadily increasing to rival Six Flags and Cedar Point with only a modicum of ride improvement to show for it.
