Just found this and it took me straight back to the 70's. Loved riding the Water Chute whilst staying in a caravan at Sandy Bay during Miners fortnight with my mam, dad and older brother. Great memories, thank you...

@coffee with two sugars please I remember it being made from wood and some steel. The Figure of 8 rollercoaster was the same too if my memory serves me right. The old gas mantles for the lighting did have a certain smell.🙂

Thanks for sharing. Always ended holidays at my grandparents in North Cornelly with a ride on the water chute in the 70s and 80s. It would scare the bjesus out of me. Remember the “clunk, clunk, clunk” as the carriage went up, raising the anticipation. Fond memories. Coney Beach fair ground never the same without it. Shame what happened.

I used to go on this as a kid in the 1980's. My other favourite was the Santa Fe Railroad.

its a shame what happened on this ride and that it was then torn down. i can always remember this dominating the front of the fairground as a child. i dont think i ever went on it.
