Part 2/9:
One of Pennsylvania's oldest amusement venues, Woodside Amusement Park, stood alongside the Schuylkill River and became a beloved escape for families. Early attractions like the Scenic Railway gave visitors a thrilling taste of amusement. However, changing entertainment trends and urban expansion led to a decline in attendance, ultimately culminating in its closure. By 1955, Woodside had all but vanished, leaving only memories and photographs to reminisce about its once vibrant existence.
