Kind of looks like the Flitzer that used to be a Flamingoland.

It has been all over the country and was apparently in storage for the past two years. It operated in-

 

 

Trentham as 4 Man Bob

Alton Towers as 4 Man Bob

Pleasure Island Family Theme Park as Four Man Bob

Flamingo Land Theme Park & Zoo as Flying Trapeze

Grove Land as Thunderbolt

Loudoun Castle as Gold Rush

I remember that when it was the 4-Man Bob at Alton. It was actually kind of a big deal at the time, situated close to the Mouse and the Beast. It used to get some pretty big lines.

 

Is the Space Invader inside the building at Blackpool or did that get yanked out and sent somewhere else too?

I am not sure. Whenever i was at Blackpool Pleasure Beach it was ALWAYS closed. It lookes untouched so i would guess it lies dormant inside that "crater" or whatever it is!

Space Invader 2 has recently been constructed at Brean Leisure Park. It's going to have a building built around it so that it's indoors by all accounts.

 

Here's a photo from my recent visit:

 

With regards to Goldrush, it's cool to see some pictures of it actually open! It couldn't have been opening more than a few weekends by the looks of things. Hopefully it shows up at another park soon!
