  • Runaway Mine Train is a classic Mack Rides powered coaster, taking guests on a thrilling journey around Katanga Canyon. Originally opening in 1992 as part of the ambitious park expansion plans by the Tussauds Group, the ride was designed by John Wardley and runs alongside the Congo River Rapids, even sharing a tunnel where guests can wave at each other. Choo choo!

      the rough bit in the tunnel caught me off-guard for a family coaster.

    Defo runs a lot slower than it used to since the incident they had on it a few years back. The train separated in the tunnel, but they said it was down to stress on the last bend into the tunnel. The ride now runs about 25% slower than it did.

    Took my daughter on this when height restriction was 90cm for her third birthday last year , they’ve now changed it to minimum 1.1 m height and we’ve booked Alton towers again this year but she can’t go on it 😢 she absolutely loved it as well !

  • @johnmelling9950

    It hits quite hard on that turn going into the tunnel for what is a family coaster. I see they have trimmed the trees right back on the helixs. Back 20 years ago we used to see how many leaves we could grab off the tree branches on the part of the ride. Its quite a good little ride and well themed but i feel it could have been longer since its a powered coaster and does not rely on height. Rather than turn back into the station after the tunnel it could have crossed the rapids and into the woods near where the flume used to run before heading back to the station.

    I somehow have a soft spot for custom powered coasters, it's not like for standard zamperla powered coasters like speedi 64 (only zpc that i know), this is a custom layout by mack with some theming and the interaction with the park's river rapids, very well done ride of a kiddie/family coaster 👍
