Runaway Mine Train — Attraction in Arlington

It's a classic arrow mine train. It's a pretty fun ride too. It has a nice long layout with three lift hills going on a scenic tour through this part of the park. The ending is the best part of the ride. You need to be sitting in the back row for this part. After you ascend the 3rd lift hill you enter into a saloon which is actually neatly themed.

There isn't very many noteworthy elements on this ride other than the finale. That's why I can't give it 5 stars, but you should absolutely check out this classic ride...

Overall, I don’t recommend this ride. It’s just kind of rattling. So don’t be surprised if your head...
