From 1972 to 1998 "Le Cachot" (The Dungeon) was a favorite darkride of many, many people who visited Kennywood Park. Here is a slide show of photos from the ride, as well as pics of it's demolition.

  • Fear not dark ride fans! The ride was NOT destroyed at Bushkill park... the building was.... but the ten cars and the track CAN be saved. I know this because I now own this ride. I've been collecting Pretzel rides in order to save them from vanishing into history. My web page is sinistershadows .... click on my face book page and you can see us picking up the ride 4/10/2010.... I'll keep her safe till it's time for her to run again!

  • I understand that change happens, and that rides come and go at Kennywood, but getting rid of this one was unforgiveable. Who makes these decisions?

  • like remember ride le lcacot frans little girl ride. but

  • @yorkmiss wow really? cuz i love the le cachot..... well plz keep a fellow pittsburgher posted whenever u get it up and running again (or something of that nature)

  • @DCGamingVideos I agree 100% with you. I would have to include video games too. There are too many re-makes nowadays and they have run out of ideas for good stuff.

  • ATTENTION ALL LE CACHOT FANS ! ! ! RFlyer01 has just posted VIDEO of the INSIDE of Le Cachot ! ! ! Check out his channel to watch it ! ! ! :-)

  • Kennywood needs to do another ride like the gold rusher, one that captures Bill Tracy's style, because Ghostwood Estate is too....... well lit.

  • Kennywood has made a lot of bad decisions in the past regarding it's rides. Some examples are turning the Old Mill into Garfield's Nightmare, The Gold Rusher into Ghostwood Estates, and now the removal of the Pitt Fall. 

  • FYI, the Bushkill Park Pretzel was far older than Le Cachot. The cars from Le Cachot were purchased by Bushkill Park.

  • check out this video - it's a video recorded in 1998 of a bunch of rides at kennywood, towards the end, there is a small clip thats just the lines and cars of le cachot... check it out... watch?v=dOqdZzMxvZw&feature=re­lated

  • Why is everything so much better in the past!?!?! Great amusement park rides... Great music... Great tv.... Great movies... The music, TV and movies i can always find online, but i will never be able to ride kennywood's great old rides....

  • @Disneygirl556677 Yes it was. And also next to the gold rush, which is gone too. :(
