Runaway Train
Submitted by steve on Thursday, May 26, 2011 18:35

This is one of my favourite rides at Disney. The runaway train shoots through realistic mountain and mine scenery. The ride lasts quite a long time with 3 climbs followed by twisting descents. Although by no means the fastest roller coaster in the world it goes fast enough to give an exhilarating ride, and seems to be popular with a wide age range. If the queue is more than 30 minutes its worth using Fastpass.
