The journey begins as the ore-themed cars clatter through dense foliage and over multiple lift hills that rhythmically pull the train toward the next section of track. Riders weave through a rustic landscape of timber supports and rocky outcroppings, feeling the classic jolts and lateral forces of the tubular steel rails. The experience reaches its climax with a sudden dive into a pitch-black tunnel submerged beneath the surrounding water. Water mists the air as the train surges through the subterranean passage before emerging into the bright daylight for the final brake run.
