Thunder Mountain Crash

[RSoxNo1]

Just saw a news report saying there was a crash on Thunder Mountain, not sure if it was in Florida or California, only minor injuries were sustained. If anyone can get anymore information I'd appreciate it.

It was in Disneyland in CA.

Somethings got to change over at DLR...you would think they got a hint from the first accident...

I just reabout it on Mouse Planet. That's the third accident concerning Disneyland's Big Thunder Mountain in less than a year. I think that ride needs a MAJOR overhaul.

There was already an extra thread on this forum about it that was moved to the right forum, now this is another extra . Respond on the thread mentioned by objr .

BTMR Crash?

Okay, so one train bumps another one, and it's called a "crash?" I'm not trying to diminish this incident, but in reading the article, it says one train "bumped" into another. We've all probably hit each other harder on Tommorrowland Speedway. I think that this might be a bit of piling on.

whatever the case, I'll never go on, or allow my family to go on DLR BTMRR.

You'de think at this point DL would close the ride and give it major rehab. 3 accidents in 1 year?!!! That's a little extreme for rides that recieve "check ups" every night. Is DLR temp closed at this point?

This is strange with all these injuries...Any new details? How many accidents has our Thunder Mountain had?

the entire resort? In the middle of summer? Closed? No way. Just Big Thunder...for at least a couple weeks.

"Bump"...."Crash"....Are the terms really all that important? The main point is that it was severe enough to send three people to the hospital. I can't recall a time when bumping into someone on Tomorrowland Speedway sent them to the hospital.

No...not Resort. Ride. I never mentioned the resort closing, just BTMR.

you said DLR, which means nothing other than Disneyland Resort to me...

Then I apologize but, you have to admit I did write "close the ride".

Now that is really scarey. I am surprised at Disney but then again am I really.
