I took some pictures while riding through Downtown Orlando from I-4 last weekend. What you see here are the results of taking pictures out the passenger window of a speeding car...

Mount Dora Doodlebug
The Mount Dora Doodlebug was a passenger train car that had a motor added to it. It ran for a while on the train tracks running through Mount Dora and Tavares, Florida. It was relatively short lived and stopped running when the scenic railroad company that owned it closed down.
These pictures are on a ride from the train station in Downtown Mt. Dora to the 441 railroad overpass...

Fun World...
Fun World is a little amusement park attached to the Flea World flea market in Sanford, Florida. They have an arcade with a bunch of really old games, miniature golf, go carts, a section of kiddie rides, and also a section of carnival thrill rides that are pictured here. The rides are kind of scary looking, especially knowing the parks history. They had a swing ride where some of the chains broke holding up a swing sending people flying. On the bumper cars, a hot electric pickup fell from above a rider landing on them causing burns. The swings are gone, but the bumper cars are still at the park. The remaining rides look like they have seen better days...
The Tilt-A-Whirl...
The Scrambler...
The red, white, and blue outer space themed Round Up ride. It wasn't open...
The Fun World Super Slide. All of that rust under the platform at the top of the ride can't be a good thing...
And the Fun World Express...

Point Orlando Bench Monster
I came across this little monster in a bench along International Drive in front of the Pointe Orlando mall. All of the tourists walking by seemed perplexed by me kneeling down to take pictures of a bench...
