my first is on wittingslow's superloops 1986 while i was aged 6!

Has anyone have any idea on the new HUSS Rainbow we got? I'm hoping it will hit the shows soon as it seems likely that O'Neill's Rainbow is pretty much defunct, shame really, since it would be great if we have two HUSS Rainbows operating over the number of lacklustre A.R.M. Ali Babas. As for the HU...

For me the PIRATE would look better how Wittingslow originally had it.... i'm not all for over the top ridiculous unnecessary theming.... Same with Rainbow it's also a shame we don't have ANY photos from Lygon St! I never got any, or found any online! :( I'm second with you the best being original ...

Would love to see Pirate and of course Rainbow back on the show circuit. Did Wittingslow Amusements ever own Python Loop and Splash Canyon? I thought they did but I could be wrong. I'm also thinking they owned the Yoyo before it went to Tomteland with OFA. Does anyone know for sure? No Wittingslow ...

In my old time 1990s working at Lygon Street Festival in Carlton set up all lots of old Wittingslow's major rides on Argyle Square which very amazing organised all the ride are squashed each side in small park with lots of trees! The rides which are need the crane to loads the booms are very hassle ...

If I owned a HUSS RAINBOW, and yes, one day my dream is to own one... haha this is how it would look (with the Hawaiian Girls on either side, and the original Huss artwork on the backdrop) Can't beat the classic! http://www.joylandbooks.com/themagiceye/images/870721_rainbow_lr.jpg http://ride-index...
