This article is about the RCT1 variety. For the RCT2 and RCTC equivalents, see Junior Roller Coaster and Mini Roller Coaster.
The Steel Mini Roller Coaster is a roller coaster type in RollerCoaster Tycoon. It is a combination of the Junior Roller Coaster and the Mini Roller Coaster. For this reason, it was split in RollerCoaster Tycoon 2. This move has not been without controversy, as this roller coaster type is very cheap, easy to build and versatile. In addition, it's usually available at the start of RCT1 scenarios.
This coaster type was reintroduced in OpenRCT2, now called the Classic Mini Roller Coaster, in order to avoid confusion with the Mini Roller Coaster. Since the v0.4.1 release on July 4th, 2022, the Ladybird, Log, and Rocket vehicle types are available, with the Spinning Cars planned for future inclusion.
