October Ride Review: Seven Dwarfs Mine Train

HI -HOOOOOOOO

Hi-Ho, Hi-Ho, its to the Mine Train I go......

Yes, cheesy, I know!!!!!

The Seven Dwarfs Mine Train! This ride took FOREVER to be built! But, it FINALLY opened!



No pass holder preview like they did for New Fantasyland, {bummer} but I did stalk a few blogs and found out when they were going to release Fast Passes!!! And, yep, grabbed them!

Now, if you have your heart set on seeing the queue, then skip the fast passes. The fast pass lane takes you straight into the loading lines. There is a PLUS for the stand by lines, there are MANY FANS in the line, like blow your hair around like your in a 80's rock video fans!





For our first ride, we were there at opening, and of course, they were having technical issues, but about 30 minutes later, we were first on for the day, and rode in the first car! FUN!

We have ridden the train now, I think 7 or 8 times....Our favorite spot to sit, is in the very last car. In the back, you pretty much have constant movement, and it feels WAY faster, especially at night, when the bests castle is lit up!

This is one of our favorites. I have heard people complain about the seats, yes, they are a bit snug in the leg area, but for 95% of the population, no worries. The height requirement on this one is 38 inches for the littles!

You can hit up youtube to see many POV rides on the mine train, I sit in the back with my hands in the air instead of taking a video, lol. Woo Hoo!



They are beta testing ride photos for the mine train now, as well! Hopefully they get it fully operational soon.

Check it out next time you are in Magic Kingdom! Fast passes are still hard to come by, late night extra magic hours are awesome!

Enjoy!
