Big Thunder Mountain Railroad is a runaway mine train coaster that races through a haunted desert mining town filled with collapsing caverns, dynamite tunnels, and towering red rock formations. Designed by legendary Imagineer Tony Baxter, the attraction opened in 1980 and helped redefine what Disney roller coasters could be by combining detailed storytelling with family thrills. Every part of the mountain ties into an elaborate fictional backstory involving cursed mining operations in the American Southwest.
