Just a standard carousel that you may see at any traveling fair around the country. The horses (and a few exotic animals) were plastic that seemed to have seen better days. Then the ride operator had to wait for every horse to be filled up before he would start up the ride. He had us sitting there for about 20 minutes before the ride started moving, and when it finally did, the up and down motion of the horses was horrible. The up was fine, but when the crank started moving down, it felt like it was slipping and would slam the horse down to its lower position. After a while it started to get REAL annoying. Dollywood seemed to like the idea of old "antique" type stuff. If they were so into that, I would hope that they would invest in a better carousel than this carnival carousel. They should buy an old Mangels Carousel or something.
