Jan. 11th, 2004 -- The future of what is thought to be the second-oldest operating roller coaster in the world, Scenic Railway at Dreamland, England, has been put into even more jeopardy when a member of the Scenic Railway Trust has been accused of stealing funds from an account set up to save it.

45-year-old Colin Kiddell, the former treasurer for Scenic Railway Trust, has been charged with stealing an undisclosed amount from the fund. He is due to appear in court on January 16.
