over the last few weeks as we await the deadline for opening the tenders for the rebuild
of the Scenic Railway. Scaffolding could start going up within the month, which is very
exciting. The Corbicre Wheel has now arrived on the Dreamland site from lhc yard of
Carters Steam Fair, where it was in storage, and a company called Ganncndalc is being
appointed to lay out tiie Adult and Junior Whip rides and to place the Caterpillar in a
watertight container. The two whips will be stored ready for work to be carried out.
