What is this Ride? (Gandy Dancer)

(1/4) > >>

MattPaasch:
I have found a picture of my brother and I ridding a ride at SDC around 1986-1988. It was located behind the Carousel Barn, across the tracks from the Train Depot, near the old petting zoo (where the Carousel is today).

I can't remember the name of it. Anyone want to help me?

Copper:
I want to say it is called Gandy Dancer. I am not 100% on the name. The track is still there under a lot of weeds and grass.

shavethewhales:
That is indeed the Gandy Dancer, and we have a couple of pics here on the site of what's left of it as of this last fall -> http://www.sdcfans.com/galleries/sdc_sept_07/sdc_sept_07_gal.html

Do you have any memories of what it was like? I never got to ride it.

Coaster:
I wonder why they ever quit using it. It'd be great if they brought it back.

Swoosh:
Wasn't that like a sit-down version of a "pump cart"?  KBF has one similar called the Huff and Puff Railway
