Welcome to Big Thunder Mountain. Why not take a trip through the mines in one of the mine trains? There is only one catch, they are all runaway trains! On this roller coaster you zip in and out of the deserted wild west gold mines of Big Thunder Mountain. 'Fly' through steep mountain passes, into caves nearly hitting falling boulders and through the flooded mining town, located on the foot of Big Thunder Mountain. Even though this is one of the oldest rides in any Disney theme park it is still great every time you ride it. If you ride it over and over again you may even find the time to check out some of the interesting and wacky scenery the Disney Imageneers placed all over the ride.
