I can remember in my much younger days riding on an electric car type ride under the Scenic. This was replaced in the early Seventies by the hall of mirrors. Cant remember much about the ride other than this big bulb that came on while the ride was in operation? Are there any pictures of it about or any further info would be good?

I did remember seeing picture quite recently of a tracked/possibly indoor ride underneath the Scenic, I think where the empty cafe is now. Unfortunately I can't for the life of me remember where I saw the picture. I will have to see if I can find it.

Turns out the ride I was thinking of was the Journey into Space ride that seemed to go underneath the Scenic (though may have just sat beside it) The picture was taken in 1980 which is much later than the ride you mentioned.

Maybe someone else can provide some information on the ride you are talking about.

Thanks very much for the picture , the ride i was looking for was in the entrance that goes through the Scenic Railway. It was replaced by a glass walk through type thing which all became the Continental cafe to this day. i have no memory of the Space ride and guess it was replaced by the Musical fountains in Bemboms days?
