I have a feeling that this carousel is not ridable because most of the animals are possibly too fragile for anyone to ride.

Does anyone know what music was played on the old carousel at Quassy - I remember taking my daughter on it in 1966-67.

What surprises me is that this carousel has only horses, and there are no chariots/benches.

The original Figures were Auction off many years ago . these are not the originals .The Carousel is now a storage shed . And I am certain the building will be removed very soon . Conneaut Park is no longer . check out Todd Joeseph final Conneaut Park days video . it has been Razed !

The stationary animals are good for the little kids too scared to ride the ones animals that move up and down. During my childhood I was one of those kids!!! Lol!!!!🤣🤣🤣

Band organ update: News surfaced that it is going to get restored sometime soon. The news came out around 2021, but I'm not sure if they will actually restore it or not. I've been there in late 2021 and it wasn't fixed yet and a video from this year shows it's also not working. I hope they didn't lie.

This is different 😊 A European style carousel in the US, complete with clockwise rotation 🙂 The Musical Carousel at Kentucky Kingdom also rotates clockwise, but I think that's the only clockwise rotating carousel I've ridden...

I don't think I would like this ride 😞 The whip effect is a bit too much on full size Whip rides for me... A smaller, more gentle version would probably be better for me to try 🙂 The Flying Tigers ride at OWA is a bit like this, but the planes swing out a little as they go around the turns, which makes the "Whip" part a bit less scary.

Another thing I like about riding carousels, both classic carousels as well as the Musical one, is the seating position. As I ride on my favorite animal on classic carousels, or the tubas, French horns, and violins on the Musical Carousel, I straddle them 😉

Straddling is where you sit with your legs on either side of something, like when you ride a bike, a horse, or for me, a classic carousel animal 🙂🎠
