    This is the kind of thing I absolutely love! How hard they work, how everything packs up so small, has a specific place during transit, but turns into a whole attraction. Plus, they do it all kinds a weather both setting up and tearing down, day or night multiple times a season! It would be great to see more videos like this! Thanks!!

    Great to see an insight to what work they do to get the fair up and running. Keep going... Love your style of filming. Thanks.

    @Polysixchick 3 года назад

    Love your build-up videos, hopefully you can do more for 2021, love the Gardner diesel generator on the left, best generators ever! Those gnat things are horrible, they hatch out of the grass, they use to spawn like that when I was at high school and cling to the walls. A showman once told me: "it's better to build-up when it's raining then have the fair open when it's raining". Showmen are legends, they are acrobats (balancing and climbing on beams and ladders to build-up rides), engineers, electricians, carpenters, welders and painters and awesome lorry drivers, they don't get the credit they deserve, this video shows the skills needed to be a showman

    Reece is very patient and really good at teaching the young lad how things are done, he looks out for his health and safety, encourages him and jokes around. I really enjoyed watching this video, thanks for filming it... I don't know how they managed to built this without injury haha you two mucking about all the time distracting them loool nightmare. Love to come and watch one of these builds if you're ever near the north london/ essex area.

  • @flavxer7345
    @flavxer7345 3 года назад +1

    I used to work on a ride similar to that ghost train here in the states, ours was two sections on two trailers(wagons) so it was obviously twice the size called "Elm Street". Yep, I've been punched before. Lots of fun, really hard life.

    Thank you for this video. My local Agricultural Fair has a similar ride called the Haunted Mansion. Pretty much the exact same trailer and set up. Just diffrent scares and theme. I've noticed diffrent ride companies tend to customize thier haunted house ride as they see fit. This one is a ghost train theme.

    Hey guys. i am a fluorescent light enthusiast. Most fairgrounds are now ripping the old coloured coloured tubes out of waltzers and similar rides, and replacing them with these more modern strips of individual bulbs with coloured bell-shaped plastic shades, and also much more modern LED types.
    On your many interesting travels, have you come across any rides or attractions that still have these "Old School " coloured tubes still in use. I think I noticed some on the Rifle Range at Burseldon, but not sure as it wasnt close enough.. Great video by the way. I can see you have an interest in old school methods etc..
