A historic rollercoaster in Britain, believed to be the oldest in the country, has closed after more than 100 years.
The Scenic Railway, located at Dreamland in Margate, Kent, will no longer be operating.

However, the rollercoaster will remain at the park in a different way for people to enjoy.
Dreamland is seeking bright ideas for the future of the rollercoaster, which first opened in 1920 and is made mostly of wood.

The Scenic Railway is considered an essential part of British history and is officially protected from removal or alteration without special permission.
In 2024, the rollercoaster stopped running due to a fault being discovered, with experts deeming it the end of its working life.

Dreamland is now exploring long-term plans to 're-invent' the Scenic Railway so that it can be enjoyed by future generations in a different manner, without people riding on it.
Despite surviving fires in 1949, 1957, and 2008, the Scenic Railway was restored in 2015 as part of a major project to reopen Dreamland after a 10-year closure.

This year, a special exhibition about the rollercoaster's history is planned at the park, with the public invited to share their memories of the ride and suggest ideas for its future use.
Dreamland has encouraged individuals with creative and practical ideas or those with visionary and achievable plans to come forward and share their thoughts.
If you are a creative thinker with a practical approach, or a dreamer with a thoughtful and achievable vision, we would love to hear from you.
