This unique mine train attraction roars through both the inside and outside of Wonder Mountain. A special surprise in tucked away inside, and only visible for those who are brave enough to venture into the mountain itself. The mine train is powered by individual motors beneath each one of the cars on the train. The train completes two full circuits of the track.

4-Mediocre. This is one of the park's least efficient rides due to its cycling nature. Expect longer waits for very little payoff. The indoor "effects" include strobe lights and what appears to be a drowning dragon. - Joshua Counsil

For a short ride it is a lot faster than I remembered. Though I wish they would make this ride bigger or expand the interior portion of the ride. - Thomas Furlong

It looks better from viewing down in the park, than it actually. But a great family choice; quick loadings with an extremely long train (10 cars of 4 each). - Todd Houts
