Flying Dutchman

I thought it was being moved, they wouldn’t do all that just for maintenance. They’ve took the whole ride apart

Structure may have needed maintenance - or the internal parts. They did the same to the carousel the other year, totally stripped it down.
It's not uncommon to do with small rides like this.

Looks like it is staying put for now, has needed a new cabin for a while so thats nice to see investment securing the future of a unique ride like this.

They kind of themed the booth and the motor room to suit to the western theme. In the long term the ride doesn’t fit the theme.

They started to put it back together

Maybe they won’t move a ride, never know

Perhaps next year? On the website it’s listed on the full ride lineup but not part of FF - let’s come back here next year and see

It’s probably too old to move I can imagine it wouldn’t be a simple job and is probably more cost effective where it is.

It was never confirmed that anything would move These plans are subject to change until confirmed/happens.

I know how it feels.
