Filmed at Leisure Island Fun Park, Canvey Island on October 24th 2017.

This tractor was one of the first ever rides to be made by Jolly Roger Amusement Rides, released in the late 1980s. It was a very popular machine for many years and came in several colour variations.

Unfortunately, the motor on this ride was very loud and totally ruined my audio recording! Hence I decided it was better to leave the original audio from the video rather than dubbing with a very noisy hum! I don't believe the audio on this model was original to the ride anyway.

I am currently working on a website about coin operated rides, particularly those made (or at least commonly distributed) in the UK during the 1950s-90s. Please visit http://www.coinoperatedrides.weebly.com! If anybody has old photos/video footage that they wouldn't mind sharing with me, please e-mail me at [email protected] or leave a comment below. I would be eternally grateful. Thank you! :)
