  • Some old footage from 1996 I found of Nutty Jake's Mine Train dark ride at Oakwood Theme Park in Pembrokeshire, Wales. This ride is where the current Brer Rabbit train ride currently is. www.themeparkreview.com - / themeparkreview

    Thank you from the bottom of my heart for putting this up. This was my favourite ride at Oakwood and my fav ride ever.
    My grandfather and i used to go on this when we went on holiday every year. Was so sad when went there in about 2003 and they had then replaced it with slot machines. Was last time i went.

      Just went to Oakwood yesterday and I couldn't even find anything that resembles it now. They had a spooky area being set up for Halloween and alot of area closed off for development.
      Felt like there was far less there now than back in the 90s and early 2000s.
      Still enjoyed ourselves though.

    Bruh I'd never even heard of this ride until now and the thick welsh accent makes it so much better

    For those that dont get whats going on in the vid. The ride takes you through an old gold mine set in the wild west and nutty Jake has gone ... Nuts and thinks your out to get its gold and blows up the mine.
    I remember when he blew it the driver would say on mic " lets get out of here ! "
    Such great memories. Thank you :)

    The last time I went on this ride was in 1988.. nearly thirty years ago! I still have a coffee mug with Nutty Jake on it that I bought from the gift shop. I can't see that ride coming back anytime soon, very dark and surreal.

    Omg can't believe I've found this. I got kicked off this ride when I was a kid because I touched the wall in the tunnel and the lady operating it had clearly dealt with enough annoying kids that day. She stopped the train and made this assistant kid walk me back to the ride exit. It was the funniest thing in the world at the time and a random trip down memory lane got me searching for what ride it was and where, and I ended up here! What a wonderful thing TH-cam is. 😂

    Its interesting seeing how far this ride has come.. but it's still very very weird.

  • @ashscott6068

    The tunnel is still there, and the train is stashed inside it. It's just rotting like the rest of the place. Some of the worst management you'll ever see

      It became the brer rabbit ride which then was left to rot too

      How do you know the train is still in there? You’d only know that if you’ve been inside

      @@starletep8281I have. But that's not the only way. You can see the back of it just inside the entrance as you walk down the hill from the train station

    They are redesiging the area so If you want jakes mine back then phone them and ask. If enough people do that then I'm sure he will return

    This kinda reminds me of the old Mine Train Thru Nature's Wonderland ride in Disneyland.

    was it ever blown up? I remember a damaged plank and jake pointing a gun at the train but I didn't think it ever blew up.
    Now that it is infested with brer I would personally love to push the plunger
