The '''Stand-up Roller Coaster''' is a steel-tracked roller coaster type introduced in the original ''[[RollerCoaster Tycoon]]'' game.
Track has a tubular steel spine, connected to the inside edges of tubular steel running rails. Supports are large tubular steel posts. Trains are held on the track by wheels above, below and outside the running rails.

*This ride is called Stand-Up Steel Roller Coaster in [[RCT1]] and Stand-Up Roller Coaster in [[RCT2]] and [[RollerCoaster Tycoon 3|RCT3]].
==
In RCT1, the Stand-up Roller Coaster has a shallower banking angle at 30° instead of the usual 45° that the RCT2 rendition uses. Subsequently, this makes the RCT1 Stand-up Roller Coaster unable to use banked helixes. However, it also has access to the powered launch and reverse-incline launched shuttle operating modes, which the RCT2 version does not have. In [[OpenRCT2]], as of the v0.4.10 release, the RCT1 Stand-up Roller Coaster makes a return, now named the '''Classic Stand-up Roller Coaster'''..
==In Real Life==
*This type of Stand-up coaster is made by the defunct Japanese company TOGO. This company made the first stand-up trains and also made many other revolutionizations to the coaster industry. The rides were notoriously rough and were driven away from being built due to the introduction of the much smoother Intamin stand-ups, Those Intamin Stand-ups paved the way for the even more unique [[Twister Roller Coaster|Bolliger & Mabillard Stand-Ups]]. Both the Intamin and the B&M stand-ups were used in Six Flags parks but were not apart of the parks in RCT2. Riddler's Revenge was in Six Flags Magic Mountain (still operating).
