For the first 5 minutes I thought wow, this Tait does not whine as much as I remember them. I am glad to see (and hear) it get going with the noise after that. I used to ride them when I was younger and in my early teens from memory (I am pretty sure they were still going in the early 80's ?). I missed them and the Harris trains when they were gone. Even the Hitachi's had a bit of personality but to me it all got a bit bland after that (but no doubt more comfortable). Thanks for posting it, it would be great to see a view from inside that shows the controls. From memory they are quite interesting.

That whine is very characteristic of the TAIT'S, that's for sure. Follow the link below for a video showing the driver at the controls of the TAIT. Glad you enjoyed the ride. 👍 😀 kzitem.info/news/bejne/0oCGtmyriGl2eawsi=KwnrlqNyx6krkuMm
