Dreamland of old in Scotland

Postby stuart » 07 Jun 2006, 09:11

I was having a look at Loudon Castle's website last night and they now have 4 (?) old Dreamland/Bemboms rides in operation.

:arrow: Virtual Map with video clips when you click on the rides


The Captains Wheel (to the left of the map) is the Enterprise
The Black Pearl (to the right of the enterprise) is the Mary Rose
The Twist & Shout (next to Mary Rose) is the Looping Star
The Apollo/Heatwave has been added to the park (right of map)

Is the Flora McDouglas the Bounty with a revamp?

I believe the RAT TRAP is the old Wild Mouse from Margate also

I did hear a rumour that the roundabout at Dreamland with the boats that went up and down (Rhegatta?) went to Loudon Castle, not sure whether it did though.

Hardly surprising as Loudoun Castle is operated by Benbom Bros.
