The ride itself if average. the ride is a bit ruff for a newly installed coaster. the only reason for the above average rating is the themeing around it the ride is worth a one through just to see what they did around it.

Nothing real special here. Aside from the good theming this is just a glorified kiddie coaster. Its slow, small, short, and overall boring. I think had The Great Escape marketed it as a kiddie coaster, Id be happier with it because it would have been serving its purpose.

it gets one point for the theming and one point for the double helix. Even as I walk-on, giving it a 3 rating would be too much

Boring, slow long wait. Yes, its new, yes it has two list hills. But it is nothing more then a well themed kiddie coaster. The Run Away Mine Train at (SFGA) is exponentailly better then this.

Well, they scored big by relocating the comet. Unfortunately, they tried again and bombed. This coaster started out at opryland, and should have stayed there rusting away. The only thing coming close to a thrill is the final helix. The ride is much too short. There is about as much track making up the 2 lift hills as there is for the rest of the ride. The theming is nice, but doesnt make up for the lack of a good coaster experiance

I think I have finally found a mine train that is even more boring that Trailblazer at my home park of Hershey. Add on to that that I waited in line nearly an hour (thanks to one train operation. The Blue train looked really pretty on the transfer track... but precious little good it was doing there as the line wrapped through the queue and spilled out onto the midway)

They took out a dark ride, which I wouldve loved to go and replaced it with THIS??? WHAT IS WRONG WITH THEM!!! This is the most pathetic mie ride Ive gone on. This one has lots of potentional. If there werent a lift hill after the first drop, it might be better. If there was more than a brake run after the helix, it would be fun. But nooo. Kill the ride. I want the Tornado back!!!

Its not a bad coaster. The line isnt too long if you go on it at around 8:00. The end the ride goes pretty fast. They should have left the Tornado though and built this coaster around it.
