I haven't been on any "actual" mine trains; just BTM at WDW and DL. I wish they'd build one a little closer to my home!

It won't be the most thrilling ride but theming is great and I think those close passages to rocks will give the impression of going very fast!

Can't wait for 19 of March!

Finally,yesterday I went to Gardaland.
You will excuse me if my photos are nothing special but I was excited and did not think so much to do a peculiar photo service.
I made also a video with my mobile (not excellent quality) but,believe me,no video gives justice to the ride.
This time Vekoma created one of the best compact layout I've seen in my life.The ride is very intense for its kind,very very far from Big Thunder Mountain or similar.Hidden fast drops and furious banked turns(48?????????)rule and theming is just awesome.
That big fun has been a total surprise;if I have to give a rating,it's a full 10!
