The Queen of Dreamland, she reigns supreme over the beachfront and is the oldest rollercoaster in the UK.

Although she escaped major damage during World War II, a spate of terrible fires destroyed crucial parts of her structure in 1949, 1959 and again in 2008… along with the workshop, which – devastatingly – housed her original hand carved trains.

Overview ( Mathew Wells)

The devoted local community worked together with Sea Change and the Heritage Lottery Fund to raise funds for her stunning renovation. And now, Dreamland’s true sovereign has rised once again.
