They are both common nouns.
Unless it's a trick question, and I did stare at it a bit longer, just to be sure.
"Towns" is a common noun.
"Rides" is also a common noun.
Neither one is a name of something else.

There are no proper nouns in your sentence. If a city was named, you would use a upper case letter for that city's name.
Example: Other towns, such as Chicago began to build wooden rides too.

There is no proper noun in that sentence.
Not every sentence has to have a proper noun.
