Scenic Railway Roller Coaster, Wooden roller coaster in Margate, United Kingdom
The Scenic Railway features a traditional double-loop track layout with two cable lift-hills, reaching notable heights throughout the course of the ride.
Opening in 1920 at Dreamland Amusement Park, this roller coaster received Grade II listed status in 2002 and was upgraded to Grade II* listed status in 2011.
The coaster represents a traditional form of entertainment that influenced British amusement parks throughout the twentieth century, marking the evolution of mechanical attractions.
Visitors can access the roller coaster during Dreamland's operating hours from spring through autumn, with height restrictions and safety requirements in place.
A brakeman travels with each train to manually control its speed, maintaining the original operating method from the early twentieth century.
