In 2005 Dillman Equipment Manufacturing teamed up with Amusements of America to rebuild the 1986 Barbisan Dark Ride of theirs. The Ghost ride was the first Barbisan Dark Ride brought into the USA, and is currently the oldest operating Barbisan Ride in the USA. It was decided in 2005 that the ride needed an update for the 21st century so Dillman Equipment Manufacturing was called in to do the job. The ride was gone through and all the rusted steel was replaced as well as replacing the aluminum sheeting that was damaged. The ride was also re-racked to make it easier to move. A new sprinkler system was built to bring the ride up to current codes. The Ride was changed from a 6 to 8 hour teardown with 5 to 6 people, to a 4 hour tearodwn with 2 people. It can be seen on Amusements of America's Midway.
