- Originally built in 1920, the Scenic Railway, UK's older roller coaster located at Dreamland Amusement Park in Margate was partially destroyed by a fire in 2008, and then fully rebuilt, restored, and reopened in October 2015.
Footage by Craig Knight
Built in 1920, yet the lifthill is still faster than a Togo...
+Silvarret HA! That's a good one.
+Silvarret Sick burn
Wooden coaster which has a faster lift hill than a Togo looks to intense for me
+ross kaszta Wooden coaster which has a faster lift hill than a Togo 1* looks to intense for me!
+Silvarret but this lifthill was built in 2015
I am glad they did the right thing and preserved this piece of history.
It wasn't preserved, it got burned to the ground
I normally hate wooden coasters because they are rough as fuck but this one actually looks really smooth and I like how it uses a rope lift too
It's great to see that Dreamland Margate was able to re-open again this year. It is really great to see that the Scenic Railway was completely restored after being destroyed by a fire and sitting idle for quite a few years. Congratulations goes out to Dreamland Margate for their efforts and dedication to restore and re-open such a historical park and coaster. Nice video Theme Park Review. I hope to experience this historical coaster one day! :-)
Who needs chain lifts and cable lifts when you go ROPE LIFTS
For a roller coaster built in 1920, This thing goes FAST
See the roller coaster from Tivoli in Copenhagen, it's from 1914 and goes way faster!
Eva H, according to rcdb, it only goes 2mph faster.
It was rebuilt
@@benjacobs574 it has more speed during the turns tho and it has stronger G forces
If you think for a old roller coaster this is fast check out the scenic railway in Luna park Melbourne built in 1912 it’s top speed is 60kmh. This one in the video has a max of 56kmh.
Very rarely do I see a wooden roller coaster that smooth. This roller coaster is incredibly smooth.
My Dad took me on this...around 1957....!!!....Memories...until sadly WE become the memories...!!!!!
Nice! This is now the Uk's oldest operating coaster, it used to be The Big Dipper at Pleasure Beach in Blackpool. Big Dipper looks a bit more exciting but this looks like a great heritage ride.
Sam Williamson it's not the oldest because it was fully rebuilt
Christian Moss depends if the foundations and original features were used. The only original piece on H.M.S Victory is the keel but that makes it the original ship even though the rest of it isn't
The entire ride was totally replaced, even the footers. I don't think any of the hardware was reused - what was left was damaged. It's a *very* close copy and a brilliant job all the same. I'm yet to sample it. I'd say it's down to personal preference in this case as to whether one counts it as original, the geometry is certainly very close. You'd struggle to find a genuine original part of the Blackpool woodies (if any) but the difference is that this was all replaced at the same time. Original drawings didn't exist and they reverse engineered the missing portion very well, measuring what was left of the original before starting fresh. The design is certainly the oldest in operation in the UK, that can't particularly be disputed.
Swings and roundabouts, as they say... :)
This looks like an RCT2 Park!
Scenic Railway Wooden Roller Coaster looks too Intense for me.
Just looking at Scenic Railway Wooden Roller Coaster makes me feel sick.
Damn that things sounds Smoooooth.
I went on it in the 80's. Brilliant!
Wow. That looked absolutely pleasant. :) I'd love to ride that someday.
Agreed
I went there on a school trip today , I went on that , the motor bikes , the swing ,the halter skelter and the barrel of laughs
And I did roller skating aslo I went on the Ferris wheel
Should try the scenic railway in Great Yarmouth it's old very old and still man driven worth a visit.
Rode the Scenic at great Yarmouth two years ago and the second drop is still impressive for a coaster of its age.
i remember the old one and it was a lot bumpier,ive been on it when the cars literally jumped off the rails when the break man forgot to break,this one sounds nice and smooth,very tame but the nostalgia is bliss must go down one day and have a time warp
steve adams no big dipper, no mary rose no looping star... but still I'll go for the time warp,
trouble with going back to margate dreamland may be there albeit not all of it but the bali hi wont be there
It's been health and safety fied
I’ve been here! It’s actually smoother than expected and a fun ride! The wait for it is always super busy cause it’s one of the most popular rides at Dreamland
Brings back memories. I used to go there in the eighties and early nineties as a kid. I don't live all that far so will have to go back :)
Anyone noticed the Top Spin?
Ridiculously clear video ! Coaster looks like it's brand new.
Looks good for a heritage ride. Brings back memories of when I was a kid.
wow never knew it would have a fast chain lift and 2 lift hills
I love scenic railways. Love the one in Great Yarmouth. Yet to ride the one in Margate.
Great Yarmouth scenic is twenty miles drive from me. Second drop is still impressive for a coaster of its age.
I like that roller coaster it's not too fast it's nice and calm I would love to ride that roller coaster I think it's a very good roller coaster I would ride that one then any of them
This actually looks fun for being 100 years old!
Just goes to show you, something doesn't have to be new to be entertaining.
ZOOMBIRD it's only 2 years old because it was fully rebuilt however it's using the original design
Looks like some solid floater
Very beautiful. Great video. Bucket list coaster.
For a coaster built in 1920, it still looks smoother than a Togo...
I remember a time when the brake failed (probably due to overheating and 'brake fade' ) the guy was hollering ' i cant stop it!' 😮
This coaster looks fun
Looks incredibly smooth
Cool family coaster!
The colour scheme reminds me of golden oreos idk why
The original twisted colossus! 😂😂
Uhhhh......how? That doesn't make sense.
+Tommy Carr Yeah, I don't get what he meant either. A lot of rides have two lift hills. This one doesn't duel or race or anything like Twisted Colossus. *shrug*
+Theme Park Thrills The Racer at Kennywood
He said that because on both ride you get to experience the ride once and then you go on the second lift hill. After that you get to experience a slightly different but still the same layout over again before going into the brake run again. Am I the only one who actually got that joke?
+Theme Park Review The joke is that it has the two parallel lift hills. If they had installed and extra block brake it would have allowed for dueling.
One in Melbournes ( Australia) opened 1912. Oldest in the world then by just three years
The Scenic Railway in Melbourne is older. It's been there since 1912 and it's still going
Interesting, we have a coaster called the Scenic Railway at Luna Park in Melbourne. It was built in 1912 and seems pretty similar in layout.
I'm amazed, after the original one, caught fire. They've completely rebuilt it, and for a ride design, over a century old..There is some speed to it.
I suspect the first Victorian riders, where treated for asphyxiation, light headiness, and possibly regarded, as a sin before God...blah blah blah!.
Excellent footage, and there is a little evidence, that it is lit for night time..that I'd like to see.
+gallimead Wait the whole thing burned down? If so then how is it still considered Europes oldest?
+Fury325 Doug Half of it burnt down, This coaster is an exact replica of the original one as the original one was damaged beyond repair, Its a grade listed structure which means it cannont be removed or demolished, it has to be restored to what it originally was, which is what they have done.
+Fury325 Doug I agree. If something is fully rebuilt then it is new not old. Even if it is an exact copy of the original.
Just saying but it was built in 1920 the Victorian era ended in 1901
+Fury325 Doug its considered oldest in Britain, oldest in Europe is the scenic railway at Tivoli in Denmark
This looks fun to ride
That looks very very smooth!
hmm, perfect name for the ride. It looks smooth and has nice pacing. From the looks of it this entire park is a time capsule.
Crow Migration That's the whole idea, vintage fairground rides :)
I've been on this and it was amazing
I would love the job of the operator, riding all day!
For its age its still smooth
Wow I wish I was there when you were there cos i live 5 minutes away and I watch all your vids for Florida rides
Dang that things smooth
I've been on this. This is my favorite ride at dreamland. :-)
1:00
AHHHHHHH!!! IT'S THE ROLLERCOASTER TYCOON SLIDE!!!
nice! i didn't realize that it had two lift hills!
I have never ridden a side friction coaster. Poor break man, he would get so bored of the rise. :P
It's an old racer where it is really just one track to go around twice! Now I know where they got the idea for Twisted Colossus!
I like the one in adventure island, Southend-on-sea.
1:00 That's honestly the first time that I've seen one of these slide tower lighthouses ever in an actual park. Before that I've only seen them in RCT and they seemed cool, but I wondered why not many parks I was in had them. Maybe they are outdated or too expensive to maintain, idk. But I was genuinely suprised when I saw that.
It's called a helter skelter :)
Helter Skelters are common in parks and fun fairs in the UK.
When I get to the bottom, I go back to the top of the slide where I stop and I turn and I go for a ride 'til I get to the bottom and I see you again. 😉
Great ride so good
Those slabs of wood in various parts of the track - brakes?!
I kind of like the scenic railway
I live near this coaster and it's always running 1 train or 0 trains. This is such a forceless coaster that feels really slow. It's glossy smooth except from the wooden trains, but it shouldn't be the standout attraction for this park. It's really just a kiddie coaster.
Oggy3000 ffs. It IS a family coaster and dreamland is a herratige park so it's not going to Nemisis or the grand national
I have very fond memories of this attraction from the mid 60's. It whetted my appetite for coasters in general which lasts to this day, but not the intense white knuckle rides though. This was and still is pure fun!
looks great
How does the lift hill work?
Its like a catch car on a rope.
I remember going on the original at margate looks much safer now 😅
This would look cool at night with all those lights
Did anyone else notice the guy wearing gloves and applied what looks to be a lever to help control the ride???So that guy has to ride the coaster every time and apply the breaks?
the Ferris Wheel was awesome..
Oldest is in Luna Park Melbourne. Aust 1912
This shit is always closed though they really need to fix it
its requires a lot of maintenance
I went the first day it was open there was many queues and the crazy mouse wasn't working and the scenic railway wasn't either, very disappointed.
Just a quick question..
I can definitely recognize you guys use a gopro to record the rides. What mount or mounts do you use? Do you use one of the sticky mounts and put it on the front of the cars? Or a chest mount? Thanks
+Jake Seyda We have our own proprietary way of mounting the camera.
.
CoasterProject can you give me a link?
+Theme Park Review AKA Duct Tape
If I did not like the videos that are posted, I would have not subscribed because I found the replies back to people rude. Then again, that is my opinion.
Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarn to Margate!
Which one is better this one or Blue flyer at pleasure beach?
how does that lifthill work? what latches on to the cable?
That crazy mouse is at Fantasy Island Skegness Know
I live in that grey building next to ferris wheel
Wait what manufacture is this and do they have other coasters in the U.K.
in my opinion this isnt the same coaster its pretty much a clone in the same spot
That's the tamest looking RMC hybrid I've ever seen.
@Natasha McHattan ......you're really going to comment on a joke I made four years ago????
At 0:35, Is the stick thing the guy is holding onto a manual break?
Matthew Moran yes, it is.
I assume they have to push the train back to the station?
I like these scenic railways for some reason. Is there even one of these left in the US?
+Japorty We have Cyclones and well yeah we have wooden Twisters.
+AJ Babe The Pony Nope all our Scenic Railways are sadly gone.
+AJ Babe The Pony Ghost Rider is a modern wooden coaster.
woww cool
OMG I SEE ME IN THIS VIDEO, Wait... I go there every day
Is it a smooth ride?
ugh, its not britains oldest wooden coaster, it's britains newest...
if you get a house, and you knock it down, and a few years later you rebuild the house but you use the same front door, it doesn't make it the same house, see?
Can u do screaming condor or mayan adventure ? It's located in Taiwan
Lift hill: still faster then most coasters of today
I've went on this on Monday it's changed again the drops are bit higher and there is no rope
too bad roller coasters aren't that long anymore lol
Go look at the Beast, Voyage, and Steel Dragon just to name a few.
For being the oldest coaster I bet it has barley any of the original wood.
This place is called Dreamland? Whoever designed this thing and thought he had a winner was dreaming.
Umm moron this coaster was built in the 1920's... I swear TH-cam should up their age registration minimum to 18 to stop dumbasses like you from spreading everywhere.
bullshit. I bet you haven't been there it's an amazing park and I go there every week this is one of the oldest coasters in the uk shut up and go back to playing minecraft or what ever the duck you do in your spare time.
+Shovel grump fuck not duck. auto correct
It's OK. The arcade us quite good but most of the rides aren't for me as they are based around children. The scenic is still good though.
It looked like it wasn't going to make the station
Are these the original trains? or where they destroyed by fire
They are new because the old ones were destroyed in the fire
is there even any original parts being used? because if there is not then it is not the oldest.
Supports layout station. Some things.
What was the oldest still standing today rollercoaster?!
Was=is
+KarateGiraffe Leap the dips, a coaster out of 1902 that is still running.
The oldest roller coaster that is still operating is the scenic railway at luna park Melbourne built in 1902, theme review have done a video on it
+Ishan Viv That was 1912 - it's the oldest continually operating coaster.
it is the rollercoaster in de waarbeek,Hengelo,Netherlands
When did that came out? It looks so old!
did you see the very beginning? there is time travelers on the coaster O.O Well im sure even show performers need coaster breaks between each of their shows/acts. lol
how is it the oldest? its all brand new
@Natasha McHattan its all been rebuilt after it burnt down
Was this the only ride operating in the park that day?
The park has just been re opened after years. faze one is just finished. The work is and will carry on for a further 3 years
What about Big Dipper and nickelodeon in Blackpool
oh wow its got a break man
cool
