  • This was my favourite 'death trap' ride. i still miss it and would go on it in a heartbeat! I remember going on that all the time!

  • @PolishKuva

    Hi I have some good news.

    I think I met this man he ressembled a lost woodland animal?

    He said he was working on a model off this train in the kenilworth area.

    If I come in contact with this man again i will put him onto you.

    One thing he did say when I met him is that people keep shouting on him?

  • My bruvver Jacek went on ride and he never return to Poland. We still looking for him. I hope he not get hurt. This is great ride for Poland, can you bring over to Polish Disney Land?

  • @Beefy2203

    Ok so what happened then,did a wheel fall off or something or did a lion run out lol?

    Or i was saying I was there that day then the next day the Coventry telegraph had a article about it saying it had turned over or something and someone had got hurt?

  • @powerbggoods Your commenting on what your GUESSING happened, not facts! The "driver" wasn't "going like mad" and the driver wasn't procecuted for any "human error"!

  • @linda198020

    thats right I was there the day the accident happened.i read about it next day it turned over or something |I know someone broke there arm.

    the ride looks like nothin but because you were relying on the driver(human error) it was scary.

    i thought that day this is going to turn over or im going to fly out.

    the driver was going like mad around the track im not surprised about the accident and the ridse was closed.

    all good fun though.

  • @Beefy2203 do you remember the accident ?? i was there the day an accident happened not sure if its the same one though.

  • @Beefy2203 'Retired' ?! and I know exactly why! Because I was one of the unlucky few (incidentally the unluckiest) to ride the snake train for the last time in 1995.

  • @Anyatasia The guy your talking about was Cyril Cox (park foreman) sadly Cyril died in the early 90's

  • I loved the Snake Train, best ride at Drayton Manor when I was a wee nipper. Plus what great fun this would have been to drive!
