rcdb_number= 1074 Pikajuna is a roller coaster located at Linnanmäki in Helsinki. It was known as City Express during 1990–2003 seasons, but when Linnanmäki started a new naming policy in 2004, using only Finnish names for its rides, the ride was renamed Pikajuna. Pikajuna means Express Train in Finnish.

Some roller coaster fanaticsweasel-inline consider this ride as non-roller coaster, because the train has an engine that pulls it forward, whereas "real" roller coasters are not powered.
