This ride was built by Hayes Fabrication in 1961 for Tom Smith & Sons of Leighton Buzzard. In 1978, the ride had not been used for many years and was sold to Gerry Cottle who travelled it briefly in 1993. During ownership Gerry Cottle had the ride redecorated
in 1992 by Bobby Ayers. The original decoration had been undertaken by Fred Fowle. Carters purchased the ride in 1993 and undertook a restoration in 1994, which focused on the mechanism. This ride has general maintenence performed on it over the winter months each year.
