I miss Truma Towers and I just heard problems with "River Caves" (My favourite childhood ride). I hope it survives and reopens!

@CoasterConnections Месяц назад

I don’t think I would ever recover from that! I miss the Wild Mouse but I think I would cry if River Caves closed!

@dclxvi.tattoo Месяц назад

I have a piece of wild mouse that I bought from the gift shop by Valhalla last year! And trauma towers was one of my faves!!

@Alb_01 7 дней назад

I loved the hip bruising Rainbow Ride. Esp on quieter days when you could sit on your own in the seats and they would crank the speed up and let the ride last longer. The air time was insane!!

@CoasterConnections 7 дней назад

They are great rides! I can see whey they have such a following!

@rebbell308 17 дней назад

Got stuck on the cable car, stuck on the Ferris wheel and the Mouse!!! Aaahhh the Joy of a day in Blackpool!!!

@CoasterConnections 16 дней назад

Sounds like you got stuck on half the park! 😂😂😂

@jetsetter797 28 дней назад

Wow. I remember most of these. How old am I?!! 🤣🤣 One of my all-time favourites was the "Wild Mouse" rollercoaster. Why did they get rid of that? The Wild Mouse was truly truly fabulous! 🤔

@CoasterConnections 28 дней назад

Probably as old as me! 🤣 The Wild Mouse was one of my favourites too. Check out my original Blackpool Lost Rides video. The reason for removal isn’t really known, but probably a combination of increased maintenance and safety concerns.

@thekitkatshuffler 11 дней назад

Great video and nice to bring back some memories. 🙂 One thing you didn't mention about The Whip is that each car had a pedal in it that operated a brake and allowed the rider to control the severity of the whipping around the ends. I remember my dad getting it down to a fine art and flinging us all over the place.

@CoasterConnections 10 дней назад

Even more fun - I love rides that have a bit of rider control. Especially if you can master it!

@jennybates Месяц назад

The Turtle Chase, The Water Chute and The Whip were my fave rides. I miss them.

@CoasterConnections Месяц назад

I only ever rode the Water Chute. If I knew what I know now I would have made sure I experienced EVERYTHING!

@G4RY1159 16 дней назад

Such a massive shame how the Town & Park have declined, some new hotels and tram stations falls waaaay short on what Blackpool really needs. Sad times.

@CoasterConnections 14 дней назад

It’s the same at many seaside towns, not sure what can be done.

@naarahjanemorris3121 Месяц назад

I hope there's a museum at Blackpool for all the rides from the earliest to recent as the fair rides are part of our history thanks for sharing this video.

@CoasterConnections Месяц назад

Unfortunately there isn’t. I’m sure many people would love there to be one so they can learn more about the history of the park.

@brantnuttall 22 дня назад

9:47 didn't remember the whip until I saw it here. Now I know why. I did it once and it gave me the dizzies like you wouldn't believe.

@CoasterConnections 22 дня назад

So dizzy you forgot 🤣

@jayneknight2675 24 дня назад

I miss so many rides from years ago if they aren't careful it will lose its appeal

@CoasterConnections 23 дня назад

I know parks have to evolve, but I miss them too. Especially when things are closed for nothing to replace them.

@cashonly8385 Месяц назад

Another great video! Thank you!!

@CoasterConnections Месяц назад

My pleasure! Thank you for the support. I couldn’t do it without everyone who watches!

@donkeykong7777 Месяц назад

Wow, that brought back some childhood memories from the 70's. One ride comes to mind, mainly because at the time it seemed so sketchy, was a ride where you sat on a horse which went round a course on a single rail. I think there were two rails side by side, and there were long drops if for some reason you fell off. I'd like to see footage of that to see if it was as I remember.

@CoasterConnections Месяц назад

Thank you! That’s why I do it, I love looking back at the history of parks and unlocking old memories. It may have seemed sketchy, but it’s still there! The ride you are thinking of is Steeplechase. You can still ride it today!

@MeMe-mq4zu Месяц назад

That was steeplechase went on it once with a girlfriend years ago in my youth never again haha just didn't feel safe

@katyann73 Месяц назад

I loved Tokaydo Express and The Whip 😀

@CoasterConnections Месяц назад

I hope the video brought back some good memories!

@davidbowie2046 18 дней назад

This is fabulous! I lost my watch on Monster in 1994. Did anyone come across it? 🤣 Was never aware that it had been there that long. Tokaydu Express was great. You could feel the G force when it went into that bend

@CoasterConnections 18 дней назад

Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed! If anybody found the watch… get in touch! 😂

@G4RY1159 16 дней назад

No waaay, I found a watch on Monster, I put it On then went on the Ghost train and lost it.

@davidbowie2046 16 дней назад

@@G4RY1159 It was a Rolex 🤣 Nar it was a Casio, but had it for years.

@milesthehousecollection4153 26 дней назад

Wow where on earth did you get that footage of the Rainbow from? There's hardly any video footage of that ride anywhere? Only pictures. Blackpool definitely needs to get that ride back. It was absolutely stunning.

@CoasterConnections 25 дней назад

I spend way too much time watching old videos of parks! I found that rainbow rides have quite a following, there are still a few out there.

@user-pn7us7qw9n Месяц назад

Damn I feel old now 😂😂

@CoasterConnections Месяц назад

You and me both! 😂

@Charlzey1998 Месяц назад

I didn't know that the cableway station was turned into Lokis Bar! 😱

@CoasterConnections Месяц назад

Crazy isn’t it! I had always wondered why it was it was such an unusual shaped building.

@Charlzey1998 Месяц назад

And the other station is now Nickelodeon Lands bogs 😂

@Fishsta 11 дней назад

Do you think they called it Loki's because it was slightly less work to change from "Fodi's"?

@brantnuttall 22 дня назад

didn't do rainbow but did Starship Enterprise which I think was there before it.

@CoasterConnections 21 день назад

Great memory! The Starship Enterprise was at the park in the early 1980’s before moving to Flamingo Land. 😄

@brantnuttall 21 день назад

@@CoasterConnections thank you!

@davidlewis6475 Месяц назад

Was that Fred Dibnah on the water chute at the beginning?

@CoasterConnections Месяц назад

It is indeed. Filmed during the early 1980's.

@katashworth41 Месяц назад

I’m sure that the workers on Trauma Towers would dread the school trips as we would get somewhat rowdy on it. I say we, I actually mean the rest of the people in my year, I was a saint.

@CoasterConnections Месяц назад

I can only imagine what went on! 😂

@katashworth41 Месяц назад

@@CoasterConnections the worst/best thing that happened on one of the trips was being evaced off Valhalla opening year. We got loads of extra ride tokens. For the good stuff too.

@CoasterConnections Месяц назад

Ohh the good old days of ride tickets! When the park had an incentive to run rides with fast operations!

@katashworth41 Месяц назад

@@CoasterConnections I remember my first ride on The Big One and my dad paid cash (a fiver if I remember correctly, it was 30 years ago. Yes I feel ancient). I did also win a fiver for drawing it at my local horticultural show (I grew up, and still live about 10 miles from Blackpool) for my drawing of it, I was 7 and beat some of the adults, I think it contributes to my fondness for it too this day.
