K-9 Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 I love the Space Patrol Scout Ship! I may take a look to see it in person as Vintage Coin-Op Restorations is not far from where I live in the Chicago area. Ozzie, is this the restorer that's working on a couple of your projects? The Space Train is currently available on eBay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Space-Train-Amusement-Park-Ride/153432301007?hash=item23b9471dcf:g:NJcAAOSwhilZZTqA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian.. Posted December 18, 2019 Author Share Posted December 18, 2019 A few miles from me is the Blackpool Rocket Ride, or "Flyers". About 115 years old and still going strong. I went on it as a child. Sorry, Oz, they have historical listed status, so you can't have one. The owners have wanted to redevelop (destroy) them for decades, but the law won't let them. Their loss, our gain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
