Join me for a detailed look into an attraction planned at Blackpool Pleasure Beach in the 1990's. This was never built, and would have been located outside the parks boundaries.
Hi, this could possibly be the von roll cable car from Barry Island resort which was closed at that time, due to storm damage, this also had 3 towers. Purchased for this project. Would have been amazing to see this happen!
That was so interesting. Thank you. Each week you educate us more with history. Great filming too.
Wow! Even with all the Pleasure Beach historical books I have, I never knew about this proposal. Very interesting, but agree with the councils refusal decision.
That was interesting thank you very much
Really interesting, heard of the planned proposal of the rollercoaster that went out into the sea and back, think you covered it previously, but this one is truly new on me
Fascinating stuff.A cable car ride over a train track what could have gone wrong? A great vlog.
Fascinating stuff
Sometimes wonder what could have been if it went ahead!
Great video as always Darren, looking forward to next video!
You would give Sherlock Homes a run for his money, how you find out about all of these things really amazes us. Best History lesson Ive had!
Thanks haha
What a genius idea this would’ve been. And what an amazing video!
Fascinating Darren you learn something every day about Blackpool
Really interesting video Darren I do love thses blackpool videos I can't wait for next video I hope you and your family and friends are well and safe
I hate to say it, the council probably did them a favour. Great video and insight!
Yeah on this occasion, I think they did.
Wow i never knew about this planned attraction!
Never knew this proposal existed and I worked at the pleasure beach for a few years in the 90s
Great and interesting video as always Darren. Thank you 🙂
Smashed it again! great editing really enjoyed this video thank you for sharing👍
Excellent and very interesting Darren.
No naked sunbathing in the garden then if it did go ahead 😂😂
I still would. Give them an eyeful lol
@@AdventureMe 😂
darren you are becoming the google of you tube
That was really interesting!
I can completely see why it was turned down, but it would have been pretty cool!
I can see why it got knocked back,a heck of a lot construction, and disturbing residents for the sake of basically a short walk to the Pleasure Beach.
As always Darren a great video mate
Another great find Darren
I knew about this as I used to live right next to the Lytham Rd bridge as a kid, a few doors up from the house you pointed out on the bridge. So there would have been a pylon at the back of our flat and people would have been able to see into our lounge and kitchen. 😂
Yeah not ideal
If you can get access to back issues of the Lytham St Annes Express I recall there was quite a bit in the paper at the time with emphasis on the loss of privacy. Not sure how much was driven by the news or residents!
Another great video Darren 😊
Who’d of ever thought it cheers and thanks again 🚡
Imagine the chaos if this was built and then ever broke down peak season 😂 that’s quite a fair walk to the park
I also thought it would be a retoast of the top thrill dragster style story (we live and hope) but good to see this is something different!
You absolutely need to do a video on the ‘Bigger One’ worlds tallest coaster out over the promenade. Legend has it the footers are there by the tram tracks!!
Already covered it Barry
There is no bigger one. They never built it.
Interesting video mate 👌🏻👌🏻
Thanks Andy.
BPB also tried to get permission to run a Noddy type train from the car parks direct to the park, but this was also refused due to objection from busness owners because loss of trade from passing visitors.
Very interesting Darren. Never knew about this. Thanks for showing 👍🏻😎☀️
Thank you for the early morning video today. Often wonder how this project would be today. Unfortunately, that will never be known, at least at the population level. Enjoy your week ahead, and see you on the next. Cheers Darren! 😊
Back then the park had free entry hence it had 7 million visiters so it might have made business sense back then. This isn't the first time that the pleasure beach has tried to break out of its boundaries as it tried to create a giant launch coaster that would have gone out to the coast and theres still three concrete markers where the pylons were proposed (not sure if it was yourself in a previous video that pointed that out or one of the rollercoaster vloggers)
Yeah it was my video
When I was a kid back in the 90s, I’d heard they were planning to buy the Solaris centre plot to build a hotel and run monorail from there to the park, this was either refused permission or fell through hence the Big Blue in its current location. I don’t know if there is any truth to this (or if it was somebody getting the plans for a hotel mixed up with the plans for this cable car system).
Brilliant video, as usual. Many thanks AM.
Hmm, Seems Intresting.
Not heard of this one.
But the comment about the 5 min walk to the main entrance, there wasn't one in the 90s, you could wander in and out at many different entrances. So it probably ended somwhere near one of those.
Yeah that's right. But there were no entrances at the back. The nearest was where it is now or on Watson road. The rollercoasters block the back end.
Danke Darren.👍
Nobody thought of some sort of underground tram system? From that car park straight into the pleasure beach?
Great video what a shame it never came off
I never knew about this! You're starting to really show off with your drone lol. If that did go ahead it would be rack and ruin now if I'm honest 😔. Another great video though 😊
If they were to do that now, why don't they just build two new park entrances with one outside Bond Street with multi-storey parking & another one being where Blackpool Pleasure Beach Station is? With entrance plaza where Big One circles overhead? Using railway already in place with if not Bond Street, parking at Blackpool South Railway Station, build up with Multi-storey parking? Or council could do this for guests accessing to the Pleasure Beach itself? Its what I would do. Also, ok idea, but yeah agree with residents wanting no one looking from above below into their gardens aswell hearing the noises of the operations & guests talking or shouting especially if operated in evening? So for that glad it didn't happen involving the railway clearance, also could of gone with a longer one I think. By the way, now that monorail has been removed, wouldn't say no to them maybe bringing Cable Car back to park? Like Alton Towers Resort type? Offer good views of park. But interesting video, really enjoyed and look forward in future seeing more. 😀👍
Good afternoon Darren how are you very interesting vidio I remember the pleasure beach cable car sky ride but I never went on it I have been on the Modal railway they use to have have a good bank holiday weekend much love and best wishes take care stay safe xx ❤❤❤❤😊
Ohh no didnt know that !!
Wouldn't be good if nude bathing in your garden, but given the people riding the cable cars something to talk about.....lol. Always find your videos so fascinating.
That's assuming it's big enough to be seen from 50ft up lol
@@AdventureMe surprising what a phone camera can do now! LOL
How on earth did you get to find out this rejected planning application, Really interesting.
Lots of digging and contacts
Great video and presentation. Never heard of this before.
Do you have any information regarding the proposed "Bigger One" rollercoaster that would start at The Millennium Bug, propel down the line of Watson Road and shoot across the promenade and rise vertically above a unique section of the prom? Maybe it was just a myth.
I covered the bigger one in my part 2 hidden secrets of the pleasure beach
@@AdventureMe thank you. I subscribed. Loved your video on New Brighton Tower and Royal Gardens.
Hi Darren, it might have been a viable financial option at the time but on hindsight it was always going to be a nono? Cheers DougT
more on local stuff please
I'm an international jet setter don't you know.
@@AdventureMe spot on 😊✔️ Cheers DougT
Have you done one on the tram that went between the two peers? I think it was a Victorian or Edwardian thing.
Not yet
Very interesting video Darren didnt no about any of this ty 😊
Born here and never knew this but I wasn’t born until 91!
Always wondered why BPB didn't connect to the car parks. Now I know.
Question Darren.
Was there going to be a rollercoaster ride that went from the park out over the sea on a purpose built pier and back into the park. Have your park contacts an info?
Yes there were plans. I did a video about it.
I will have a look at the back catalogue. thanks for the quick reply
Frontier land had something VERY similar if my childhood memory is accurate?
Yes it did. But it didn't stop. Just a scenic ride.
Had it have been around now you probably wouldn't even be able to pay with cash to use it knowing the way the Pleasure Beach is run now.
Interesting project, but I doubt it would have justified its expense and as the Council noted, would have had a detrimental impact on neighbouring households and workplaces.
Darren you say twelve videos from Blackpool
No from Yorkshire lol
a tram way be good littel extra tram system be atraction in its self could use heartagge fleet
🤟
Plastic coated steel sounds like somewhat of a fire hazard. When / If I make it to the UK, Blackpool will be close to the top of my list of places to spent time. Maybe a tram going south on Lytham Rd and then west on Watson Rd to the Watson Rd car park, just thinking......
The plastic coated steel is what the Valhalla warehouse is made of now.
@@AdventureMe Isn't that something similar to what was used on the Grenfell Tower that caught on fire in West London?
@@jetsons101 Nope. That was a form of quick and easy to fit (or add on in this case) polystyrene type sheets. Which we've all set fire to as kids.
ADDENDUM.
Polyethylene filler between the twin aluminium sheets of cladding. So I wasn't quite right and you were more so, in fact. I was confused by the burnt pieces of Cellotex insulation panels which landed in my garden.
Apologies.
Sanctioned by many, many countries, made in, ahem, the US.
Nobody comes out of that horror with any credit apart from the emergency services.
@@JP_TaVeryMuch As a kid, WE never set fire to polystyrene......... "Really" lol
Darren brilliant video again .long time since I've been over there not a great fan of blackpool.had honeymoon there .was a dump then and ever since never changed.youreclong over due in god's own country.where history was born .don't be long getting here.
Long overdue lol. I've just done about 12 videos from there in a row. Keep up. Haha
@@davidnorman7761 As soon as they get back to me to do what I'm planning to do. I've been waiting a while for them. It's not me, I'm good and ready to go.
I get why it was never approved.
