Gold Mine Express

Gold Mine Express was a steel junior powered roller coaster at Schnepf Farms in Queen Creek, Arizona, that operated between 2004 and 2005. Manufactured by Zamperla in 1978, the attraction featured a single 20-passenger train designed to resemble a locomotive, which utilized an electric motor rather than a traditional gravity-driven lift hill. The layout consisted of an upward spiral followed by a downward helix, providing a mild ride experience with a minimum height requirement of 36 inches. Following its tenure at the farm, the ride was relocated to Seven Peaks Fun Center in Utah, where it was renamed Rush Coaster.
