Baba Looey’s Buggies

Opened: 1982

Closed: 2005

Location: Hanna-Barbera Land (today known as Planet Snoopy), approximately where PEANUTS Off-Road Rally is now located

Former Names: Rawhide Railway (1982-1997). At times misidentified as Rawhide’s Railway or Rawhides Railway.

Manufacturer: Hodges Hand Cars

Model: Handcars

Vehicles: Single-person handcars

Description: Baba Looey’s Buggies was a children’s attraction where riders could pedal a small car around a track.

History: Although Cincinnati’s Coney Island had had hand cars, they were not relocated to Kings Island. Instead, Baba Looey’s Buggies opened as Rawhide Railway as part of the expanded Hanna-Barbera Land (today known as Planet Snoopy) in 1982.

The ride was renamed when the children’s area was refurbished in 1998. It became Baba Looey’s Buggies, named after the character Baba Looey from The Quick Draw McGraw Show.

The ride last operated in 2005. It was replaced by the newly relocated Go Diego Go (now known as PEANUTS Off-Road Rally) in 2006.
