When I visited the park in 1977 I rode this for the first time. It was my first mine train... it was actually one of my first "Permanent installation" coasters (i.e. not Wildcats, Zyklons, and other portables, even those at regular parks). Now riding this for the first time after a gap of 30 years I still rate it as the best mine train style coaster that I have encountered. fast, forceful and with some pops of air, it is still a fun coaster after all of these years.
