Mini Train


1990s BAFCO Catalogue

Manufactured by BAFCO, the Mini Train was released in January 1988.  It remained a very popular ride for many years and was a common sight at both amusement arcades and shopping centres in the 1990s when it was marketed as part of BAFCO's "Mini Rides" range.  It came in a variety of different colours with a (slightly scary, in my opinion!) face on the front, and could be personalised with the name of the client's venue on the side.

The ride measured 40" x 18" x 46" and, as of the 2000 BAFCO price list, cost £1,525.00 to purchase.
