www.ukrides.info / UK Rides, by Colin McWilliam.
It started with my love of all things listed above! Long before the internet, it was really difficult to watch roller coasters as there weren't many programmes on TV, or video releases. So whenever rides were shown on UK television I would record them on VHS, and watch them over, and over, and over! Some of those clips are the first few videos on this channel. One of which, was a programme called 'Wild Rides'. Produced in 1982, Wild Rides was hosted by Matt Dillon, who introduced a series of music videos, each of which focussed on particular roller coaster, and *that*, was the inspiration...

    Awesome ride is the Tip Top originally build back in the late 1970s first one I went on was at Dreamland Margate in the year of 1981 the Tip Top ride was green in colour and you can still find pics of it on the Internet just ask Google 👊

    Hopefully Looping Group will renovate and modernise this ride and re open it. They could do wonders with new audio, special effects and some screen scences and some upgrading of the movement in some of the scenes and some new bits of scenery or characters.

    The workload and attention to detail that went into building this, plus the planning and discussion that contributed to its origins culminated in a truly ridiculously pathetic, in fact there are no words to describe the truly crappness of this experience. I cringe for those poor am dram actors that have to perform around it . Whoever dreamed up this poop and actually got the idea off the ground must have some clout. But also needs to be violently sacked and prosecuted for wasting everyone’s time.

    Hi, yes, the Gold Mine here went through the Magnolia Cafe, with the River Caves also passing through the same 'grotto' scene. The cafe had a balcony where you could sit and watch both rides passing.

    What i liked about this ride was that you were high up on concrete supports and the log flume track was actually over a pool of water the entire time, so when you looked over the edge there was a large drop into what looked like deep water. They should have refurbished this ride and kept it going. Blackpool had always had a tradition of having vintage rides but more recently they have been removing these older classic rides and IMO spoiling the heritage of the park. Grand Prix is the latest casualty. Its only a matter of time before they tear down one of the classic coasters, you watch. Alton did the same removing their log flume which i also used to enjoy. Not thrill rides like coasters but log flumes are nice to take a short break from all the noise and hustle and bustle and all of the family can enjoy them.

    Blackpool have always taken out thier classics! Reel, Mouse, Whip, Turtle Chase, Water Chute, Flume etc I enjoy a flume or rapids as much as a coaster, especially a scenic ride. I don't see why Infusion couldn;t have sat on higher footers, retaining the flume and Tom Sawyer ride underneath! lol

    Fault was caused by operator error. If you watch the off ride footage at the start, the operator starts the nod before the boom has reached its maximum. I am guessing similar happened with the on ride footage, the glitch on camera was probably caused by an illegal ride action causing the rides safety to kick in. Wasn’t a power failure, the lighting and sound system was still active, just poor ride operation.

    Who’s watching in 2024? Speaking of 2024, the ride is now called The Wave and it a sit down coaster now. When the wave opens, you should do a video of the ride to the song ‘sit down’ by James because it’s a good song for it now you have to sit down
