The Scenic Railway Tunnel

The Scenic Railway Tunnel
Scenic Park's most popular attraction was its scenic railway. The open-car roller coaster sped through two artificial tunnels adorned by multicolor lighting and papier machee renderings of natural ravines. One tunnel offered onlookers a representation of the 1894 siege on Port Arthur. Japanese fores reportedly massacred thousands of Chinese civilians and servicemen during this battle of the First Sino-Japanese War . | Source: "Scenic Park and Scenic Railroad." The Street Railway Journal Volume XI No. 10 (1895): 657
