Seven Dwarfs Mine Train Discussion

Uh oh.... Problems may exist with the ride vehicles/track support for this ride... Reading elsewhere, there seems to be some sort of miscalculation WDI did with the swaying of the ride vehicles...

Lee, Raven, any idea on this???

The prototype has already been made. Tests are being done. The actual design of the vehicle is still in concept mode but it will be similar to the mine cart in the movie.

Raven, any ideas on the top end speed during the outdoor section? Since it seems this is going to be purely a coaster now I am wondering if it will have speeds in the same ballpark as Big Thunder? I hope so, I don't buy the whole fantasyland is a kiddie land and it can't be too intense theory.

Oh I didn't mean cancelling the ride in general... I just meant what a friendly spirit said about the swaying of the cars being an issue...

I keep worrying that this "feature" is going to be more trouble than it's worth.

I hope I'm wrong, but it just seems superfluous to me and more likely to have mechanical problems.

Oh God, please no, "Disco Mine".

(On second thought...)

If it goes "fast" it will be a very short ride. There may be a few short burts but I really don't know the speed.

There are problems and issues with every project. All normal part of design and implementation. They will get it running.

I figured it wasn't all doom and gloom as some made it to be... That's why I asked here...
