    River King Mine Train is a steel mine train roller coaster at Six Flags St. Louis in Eureka, Missouri. Built in 1971, it was the park's first coaster and opened with the park on June 5, 1971. The actual ride itself is one of two tracks, one which was later sold. Today, the ride operates with its original name. The ride has also received modern upgrades, including a new control panel. It is a popular family and beginner coaster, since it is the smallest in the park. Often called simply the Mine Train, it is unique in the fact that it has no automatic system for the lap bars; instead, employees have to manually lock and unlock the bars. Trains are five cars with riders arranged two across in three rows. In total, the coaster has three trains that have a total capacity of 90 riders (30 each).

    Yeah, it’s totally “baby’s first coaster”, but that’s why I like it, since I’m a big baby, lol. Haven’t been to Six Flags in ages, so this was fun. Final drop is much more fun in person, lol

    This was my first ‘roller coaster’ at 9. I’m 14 now and my favorite is velocicoaster and the beast

  • @breeharper7672

    This was always one of my favorite rides as a kid. 😃

    My favorite! Everything doesn't have to be fast and upside down! The baby coaster was always my favorite!

    At 39 years old it is a baby compared to Cedar Creek Mine Ride. It looks like a great family coaster to get the youngins' used to riding them.

    Visited this park twice. It’s a fun ride. How it was a stand up ride in the day , I don’t know why.

    The one in Great Adventure in NJ ALWAYS gave me black and blues the next day 😮😢. It's not made for tall people. You have to sit sideways. Very uncomfortable 😖.

    One, I like that they have a lot of greenery and dodging through the trees.

  • @billpeters9999

    This would be awesome after dark

  • @TonyKimtheamusementparkfan

    I can't imagine how this would have felt when it had the stand up trains on it

  • @nathanlopez5667
    @nathanlopez5667 Před 21 dnem

    Is this the one that had two tracks before

  • @RandallPeek

    I had the opposite reaction watching this than most of you. It looked to me like poorly maintained, boring garbage.
