MattyMoo Posted March 14, 2011 Report Share Posted March 14, 2011 Just found this on Youtube:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VPD4CAa61V0It's labelled as 1980s but the Vampire opened in 1990 of course Very interesting footage - including a bit of the 5th Dimension. The Runaway Mine Train is noticably faster, and it's amazing how exposed the Vampire looks compared to how integral it looks now, 21 years on! Also shown is Dragon Falls, and you can see they have the "year" sign on the drop so that it shows in the photo - remember those days?

MattyMoo Posted March 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 14, 2011 Ooops, sorry! I assumed it'd be in the "past" section if it had been posted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peep Posted March 14, 2011 Report Share Posted March 14, 2011 Wow. Firstly..LOL at 1990s Halfords randomness.Vampire looks so different and bare back then but Bubbleworks looks so new and amazing. The zoo looked so much more epic too with polar bears and elephants. Glad the food has improved since as whatever that was in that white plastic didn't look very nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weeksy Posted November 2, 2011 Report Share Posted November 2, 2011 Don't even ask how I found this but....http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oKXzde54HVY Mark9, Coaster XTREME, Fred and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phill Pritchard Posted November 14, 2011 Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 Don't even ask how I found this but....Oh dear I had forgotten just how awful that single was. And as far as the video is concerned it’s nice to see the little bits of the park featured but with such a great filming location they certainly wasted lots of opportunities. A great find there though Weeksy, thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
