This ride is fairly jerky, especially the final drop. The scenery was nice, and that was about it.

I LOVE THIS RIDE!!!! This was my FAVORITE ride when I was little. And Now I am about to indroduce this ride to my daughter for the first time.I think this is a good ride for children who have never been on a coaster.... It kinda "breaks" them in...

A Great FAMILY Ride!

This ride is pretty good, especially the last dop into the tunnel. While the ride is jerky, it's still fun.

This is a fun mine train coaster, but it's very jerky and the seats are not "adult friendly". lol
