For what this ride does it's okay. I can give it a pass for being an old ride, it's a classic. These arrow mine trains are usually very janky and have bad transitions and this one is no different, which actually makes them fun. This one has a nice scenic course going along the side of the hill. I like the views you get of the other coasters like full throttle and superman. I like the helix it throws in at the end, it was actually kind of intense and it had decent laterals. Overall this is a solid ride, but for what it is I can't give it 5 stars.

This cute little mine train has some surprises up its track. The track goes side to side and causes me to get thrown to the side.

A nice change of pace compared to other coasters in the park. Definitely a fun mine train coaster. It always makes me laugh to see the wait times for other mine train coasters (looking at you, Disney) and then seeing how I literally just walked on Gold Rusher, which is ultimately a better ride than those Disney variants. Always worth a ride at Magic Mountain!

Such a fun family friendly thrill coaster! This is perfect for transitioning from kiddie rides to large coasters. Brace your neck if you have neck or back issues as it does through you around a bit. I genuinely enjoyed it as did my thrill seeking kids that have outgrown these types of coasters (but truly did enjoy riding this one a few times in a row).
