niiicolaaah Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 Wow, that is a cool video. I love seeing how things were "back in the day". Those River Caves boats in the video made me a little nervous because they tipped over so far! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

verticalzero Posted April 12, 2007 Share Posted April 12, 2007 The 1920's - 1980's were the best time for parks before all the stupid "Health and safety" laws arrived. Why add "seatbelts" to Rollercoaster when it has been doing it's layout with no deaths for over 50 years. I sat across the seat when I went on this ride last time, great fun There is a Park in Linconshire which has a ride with "tubs" simular to the virginia reel. A Park needs to be brave and rebuild a "virginia reel". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
