When Disney decides to do something, they do it right. The Seven Dwarfs Mine Train is a prime example. It features the first ever swinging ride vehicles adding a thrill to every tight turn while telling the tale of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. A great ride for adults, it is perfect for the kids who have outgrown Goofy’s Barnstormer but not quite ready for Big Thunder Mountain Railroad.
Below you see the effect of the swinging ride as the train undulates through the curves.

Deb will be here tomorrow showing what it was like the day the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train opened.
I’m very jealous of your photos, they always come out so beautifully.
Secondly, the mine train is a great ride. It had always been billed as a family-friendly coaster, and that’s exactly what it is. Thrill-seekers need to go elsewhere. It’s light and enjoyable with gorgeous animatronics. It’s a great addition to the park.
Scott replies: First, thank you very much. Second, I agreed, it is a great family ride.
I honestly did not think Seven dwarfs was worth the wait..would tell you to spend your time on rides such as Space Mountain or Big Thunder instead.
No leg room, very uncomfortable. Other than that, awesome ride.
