Ghost Train Build Video - Burtons BIG Ghost Train from Start to finish (3 hour build)

[@j.conyard1957]

Love buildup videos, especially yours. No pounding, repetitive synth music, no time lapse, no lengthy video of trucks pulling onto the grounds, and you feature one ride being built (with a few extras thrown in). Can't wait until you get a big roller coaster build-up 🦥👍 Fantastic Job Dave and Simon, Thanks!

[@johnkelly1083]

Whoever designs these rides to fold up like that... it's genius.

[@rosiew1952]

the young lad is absolutely amazing, ghost trains have always been my favourite , as they stay mostly at a nice level , and not hundred,s of feet up in the air lol

[@Robert-jf5oi]

I went on a Ghost train just a couple or so weeks ago at aged 63 in Pelsall near Walsall. England 😅🎉

[@jackiesimmons2321]

Really enjoyed build up vlog that young man what a credit to his dad proper showman I hope they get well supported

[@BURRITO44]

Awesome

[@mrgroosumthasandman8046]

Ok.... I'm gonna say what a lot of us Yanks won't... you guys take so much more pride in your fairs/carnivals! From the quality down to teaching and showing the young ones how it's done! That's definitely on my list of things to do! Experience a fair/carnival over seas 🌊.... much RESPECT!

[@SlothyVlogs]

Thank you so much ☺️

[@davefroman4700]

Yeah over there a lot of the rides are individual owner/operator deals. Family outfits. And everyone is always competing to offer the best experience. Some of the bigger fairs its not uncommon to see 2-3 identical ride systems, but they all look differently and a lot of the times they are operated differently as well.

[@monicatyler2580]

its so interesting how they put up the carnival rides, and take down,

[@Lucas-os4vx]

Great to see his son helping out at such young age

[@drumlover1687]

Just found your channel and I think it's just great. Love it!!!

[@wilsonslegofunfair_]

I can hear si ranting on to the showmen as usal 😂😂😂

[@stephenkelly1887]

Terrific vlog. The engineering and the knowledge and skills never cease to amaze me.

[@Kudos1799]

Excellent build. Takes me longer than that to put together a family size frame tent.

[@itsjerianson7220]

Slothy vlogs should visit Brent Cross fun fair it’s amazing

[@1blondied]

Was just as good on phone..I couldnt tell the difference.. Thankyou x

[@CoolhandLuke552]

These build up videos are great to watch back Dave, just watched both of Gravity Rotor pull through and build up videos with John Lock. Hope you may get do some more this season 👍

[@CoolhandLuke552]

Really enjoyed this, i met Edward at Reading Charter Fair and at Beaconsfield a couple of years ago such a nice showman and welcoming when i filmed his fantastic Ghost 👻 Train at both venues.

[@UnkleHeavy]

This was so fascinating to watch. Not only how every little part fits into that trailer, but the fact they are able to assemble it completely from memory like that with out a manual. It takes me over 3 hours to put together a piece of furniture from Ikea! Well done.

[@Wildlifesupernannyfan]

TRUE PERFECTIONISM!!

[@Maarten00001]

Interesting video, enjoyed it. Greetings from the Netherlands!

[@Avgeek_8272]

Let’s all admit the people that make these rides and design them are genius

[@philroc9191]

What a fun video. Very satisfying watching all of the smart design to get it all to fit in a single trailer and how the mechanisms work to snap it all together. Thanks for sharing !!

[@TCBulldog2016]

As a 70's kid l love ghost trains. The engineering efficiency of this ride is so impressive it puts a transformer to shame.

[@carny1865]

Awesome video! Thanks for posting!

[@rollernerdmadness2100]

It's amazing how they make that into a ghost train it's kind of like a transformer!!! 🖤

[@richardsundown2175]

It still amazes me how much work goes into the build up and tear down especially for those one day street fairs. These deserve every dollar they can get

[@adrianbuchwald6103]

Brilliant build up video .Big thankyou to the Showmen for letting you film it.really compact build.thanks🦷👍👍👍👍👍❤❤

[@weirdchristmas6752]

THESE PEOPLE ARE ABSOLUTE GENIUSES ..DO THEY MAKE ANY MONEY THOU? BUT A 3 HOUR BUILD UP BLOWS MY MIND. AND THE KID TOO...HOPE THEY ARE MAKING ABIT. WHEN'S YOUR NEXT VIDDY ANYWAY? 😎✌❤

[@vpena6626]

Love Ghost train.....much love

[@elleryparsons5766]

What would Be Awsome For Halloween to have As Many Ghost Trains Together in One strip I think that would be Awsome.

[@alyssabradley7671]

Awesome video simon reminds me of how i feel when i wake up early in the morning lol

[@heartsmindsmedia]

Thanks for showing all the hard work behind the scene's

[@GHOST-mi4jh]

❤️, haven't been to that fun fair for over 25yrs, oh well, maybe next year, it's difficult as I now live in the north, 😞.

[@ockiyaostylespictures]

this is creative never this kind in africa...thumbs up team

[@paulinetinsley68]

This was very interesting. Its amazing hiw all that huge ride fitted on a trailer

[@karencorcoran2198]

Ghost train Looks really cool machine

[@tomstickland]

I love a good fair ground. The best Waltzer in the UK is Carter's Steam Fair.

[@aleccole994]

That was so Awesome, Thanks Guys enjoyed it

[@Ukfairgrounds]

You should do a build up video for a Matterhorn or booster

[@johnparr2037]

great to see buildup its best part of it

[@dave1135]

I've just discovered videos of carnival rides being assembled and it's amazing how such a huge ride can fold and be compressed into such a small package. I know it's a semi trailer, but still that's a huge ride

[@Dake-gj2nz]

Wow thats so cool great video! 👍

[@GhosterStudios]

Fantastic video Dave, I always wondered how the spiral lifts folded out!

[@SlothyVlogs]

Very clever design isn’t it

[@GhosterStudios]

@@SlothyVlogs Yeah definitely! it's amazing how well everything interlocks

[@arizonaalchemy7572]

Nice Ghost Train and fun to see the build up !

[@lazaruslaser]

Absolutely Outstanding

[@CoasterCollectorUK]

Ive found myself loving this channel. Found it a few years ago, only just started really watching it, absolutely love it!

[@SlothyVlogs]

Thank you so much, much appreciated

[@keithjohnson1931]

that's awesome thanks for sharing

[@karencorcoran2198]

I love the lights on the ghost train good vlog Dave

[@Littlefreetime]

Oh ! The young one knows how this thing goes together. Lucky, what, 12 year old? I wanted to set up rides when I was 12. What a machine! Thanks for the Vid.

[@georgeh-w5041]

I literally just rode this exact train!

[@laurawhite1679]

I love seeing funfair rides being built up it’s very interesting to watch

[@SANITIZEDINC]

Love vlogs like this. Also interviews with showfolk. Cheers!

[@daiseelee26]

It's always great to see the build up videos and really appreciate the hard work and effort that goes into the build up of a fair. The showmen and women definitely don't get enough credit for all the work they do so we can have our fix of fun fairs. #2Tokens

[@keiranhyre750]

Loved the build hope to see many more maybe the waltzer next

[@timhart7607]

Awesome vlog Dave can you do a build up vlog of a Round up please

[@oddsandwindsocks5905]

Hi Dave, what a superb piece of kit that ghost train is, amazing to see how it all folds in to each other, and only 3 hour to build up, that's super quick. I thinking these rides aren't cheap either. Please do more of these mate.

[@MCREXPLORER]

Wow looks amazing

[@dulceteteoficial]

Madre mía... esa atracción esta para tirarla a la basura... esta todo que da pena, oxidado, roto... yo a mi hijo no le dejaría montarse ahí sinceramente.

[@ladybird2222]

Really interesting 👍

[@alfnsue]

Fascinating watch Dave and Si, love watching a ghost train build, this one was awesome 👍😎😎

[@angelicaburns6724]

I have been on it

[@stevenking8688]

Mate when are going to this fair...it looks like it's going to be a top one!!. Bensons waltzer😜🤪

[@harrylenehan617]

I went to Hull fair yesterday and to my surprise. chadwicks ghost train was there so I rode on it

[@Robert-jf5oi]

It's good to see a UK based build up fairground video ,as I'm from the UK 🇬🇧- Subscribed

[@stuartmckelvie446]

Very interesting lads. Looks a very good line up there.

[@justforfun9704]

Brilliant build up vlog nice one lads thanks for getting up early to bring us this one appreciated 👻🎡🎠👊🏻👍🏻

[@louisthetravelspotter]

Amazing video David

[@LiftHillsandThrills]

Incredible video dude, love this exclusive look at how they're set-up. Whoever made that is a genius.

[@ChazzCoombes]

What a wicked build video, really good to see how it all goes together from the trailer. Nice one Dave and Si

[@ernestmchugh3132]

Oh Simon!

[@izaakz12]

Nice video

[@JLT_MEDIA]

these videos are wicked love to see how these machines transform, fantastic engineering

[@Dylanb06]

Love the Buildup videos Dave! Great video mate :)

[@newyorker3766]

Excellent video. Nicely filmed. Great to see the young man working so hard to help. He shows a lot of willingness to work hard. Once again you are filming very interesting things to see. Thanks mate!!

[@eternylbliss2151]

I keep telling everyone I know I want a dark ride in my backyard - they probably think I am a loon but I am obsessed with these things.... I would need a fold out poster manual for that. Not sure if the neighbors would appreciate it though.

[@shaneabbott.]

You should build nightmare express for the next ghost train!

[@jefftomashunas7913]

I'm so happy you did another build up video. Always interesting on how rides are built. Thank you

[@egonrhoodie2745]

Fascinating behind the scenes the effort and hard work!🦁🦄🐱🐵

[@RodrigoJacks1]

Parabéns pelo conteúdo... top!

[@Polysixchick]

Fantastic video, lovely to see the showman's young lad helping with the build up, he's quite a character. 13:01 "what's behind door number 1"? Some props and the paybox, love the young lad telling you what's behind the door, he's good with the hydraulic lifting mechanism too while building up the ride (I'm sure he's done that a squillion times). So important to get the ride level and get the feet propped up (had to do that with our speedway ark, check and check again each base strut was level!). Great thing with these modern rides is the ease of build up compared to the old wooden ones I've worked on. We had nothing modern on our fair and it was a long job painting and varnishing everything and putting it all back together for the spring. Love the skeleton bike prop, he's brilliant! Lovely to see these videos Dave, showing us what showmen have to do to put food on the table and pay the bills, it's hard work and rely on paying customers to keep their livelihood going. The rides have to be in tip top condition and the generators otherwise the money flow stops if they break down. I use to be an part time attendant on Gray Brothers fair years ago on their Skydiver (a Maxwell Paratrooper, sadly they don't have it any more), it was fun to get people to come on the ride and you use to have to shout "wanna go?", "come on guys, try the skydiver, the best ride on the fair" (in a cheery voice), stuff like that. Love that you got a free go, "testing it", lol, love the sound of the ratchet on the car clicking away, it's to stop it rolling back into other cars if it has a power failure, works like a brake.

[@tiffanylehan1971]

I love watching these build ups. They remind me of the Polly Pocket playsets my daughter had. 😂

[@Dazza1969]

Can’t believe while you were filming your mate didn’t help with the build 🤣 brilliant vid mate
