    Description

    Sixth version of Kennywood's 1901 Old Mill ride. The retheme to Tour of the World included new scenery inside and a new façade. It is believed that the ride received new boats by Philadeplhia Toboggan Company with this overlay, which included two hand-carved dragon heads on the front.

    This version of the Old Mill was designed to both entertain and educate riders, by scenes depicting cities like washington, Paris and Tokyo.
