Key Details About the Ride:• Manufacturer & Year: Built in 1903 by the Herschell-Spillman Company, this was Euclid Beach Park’s second carousel.
• Unique Feature: The ponies were suspended from above rather than attached to a flat platform, allowing them to swing outward as the ride spun.
• The Incline: The entire carousel structure was installed at a 10-degree angle, making the motion more thrilling as it revolved.
• History: The Flying Ponies operated at the park until 1949, and one of the surviving carousel horses is preserved at the Cleveland History Center.
