they wont re-open dreamland, its been closed for years! and it wont be the same again.. somthing does need to be done! margates a ghost town now

[xtremecoasters]

You never know whats going to happen. There is no reason at all why it could not re-open and be a success. There are a lot of people like myself that would travel hundreds even thousands of miles to ride the Scenic Railway, and the kids of Thanet and the surrounding areas would have nothing else like it near by, so I think you underestimate the kinds of crowds this park could still pull in if run and maintained correctly.

Man, that park looks awesome. What happened to it? Why was it closed down. I do not understand?

[xtremecoasters]

A different owner took over the park, and then greed took over him !! Please do your bit by visiting the Save Dreamland campaign website and help by showing your support as and when you can. Dreamland will open again as the proposed first in the world heritage park, and the damaged section of the Scenic Railway will be re-built and thrill millions of new riders over the coming years. But everyones help is needed to make this happen.

@MrVinalmagic Sorry mate the big wheel if I remember correctly was either scrapped or sold to a company in Germany but the fact of the matter is it will not be coming back to Dreamland (a big shame in my opinion)

[DJGaryGold]

@MrVinalmagic As far as I am aware mate, it is a nice little selection!

Here is the official website and the rides that have already been purchased are all on there at the moment: dreamlandmargate(dot)com

watching Only Fools and Horses on their outing to Margate, made me miss this place, thanks for the video!

Its a shame that the new heritage park will only occupy 50% of the original site with the other half going to houses shops etc. They allways struggled for space originaly.
