There must have been more than one of these made, and maybe the U.S.A. one went defunct? In the past few days since my purchase Ive done a little reasearch on "The Rainbow" Apparently there were only a few dozen of this style ride produced and new ones are no longer available. Some of them were called The Magic Carpet or the Alibabba. Only the ones called Rainbow had the wahines. The one I bought came from Kentucky Kingdom in Louisville and was dismantled here in 2008. I found several photos online of Rainbows. Here are photos of one at an unknown location that shows the two wahines on the ride car and different ones on the fences around the ride. There are more out there somewhere but exactly how many is anyones guess.
