    The correct answer is subjunctive.

    Explanation:

    Subjunctive is used for wishes and desires that are either unlikely to happen or completely impossible. Usually, the verbs following the verb wish/desire/hope, etc. are used in their subjunctive forms.

    As you can see in the sentence above, the narrator wishes the wooden roller coaster were still in use; however, unfortunately it is not. He or she is expressing their dissatisfaction with this through the use of the subjunctive.

    Non-subjunctive, or indicative form, is used for facts rather than wishes.
