OMG, Rebuild it now! Looks great. I love the small tubs ride at Joyland. That just looks plain cool. Who needs the big coasters? Build a wheel PBB.

I've put it on a few places on the internet and plan to add it to a few more coaster-themed Facebook groups, such as I love old wooden coasters etc.

I had a look at the hit count this morning and almost 300 people have watched it.

(I work for the same company and have access to the basic hit count software for all the newspapers in the group, so nothing sinister).
