Eureka Mountain Mine Ride review by Richard
by Richard, 9 years ago
It was far from a perfect ride, or one that deserves any of the nostalgic memories that have surrounded it in recent years. As a wild mouse coaster it ticked all the boxes, but the ordinary theming, moments of roughness and appalling capacity made this one a decidedly mediocre roller coaster.
Review Criteria
Enjoyment
A simple, occasionally enjoyable coaster.Effectiveness
The mine theme is done well, proving that out-of-control mine carts are not terribly comfortable.Intensity
Surprisingly intense owing to its strong lateral g-forces and pitch black sections. Perhaps too intense for its family market.Rider Comfort
You're thrown around as you should on any wild mouse. Seatbelt restraints and padded cars means there's really no jolts. The dark final section is nasty.Pacing
This ride is short, sharp and doesn't suffer from excessive trim braking like so many other wild mouse coastersTheming/Storyline
Entirely tacky and low-grade. Its exterior looks more like a melted Tupperware container than any real mountain I've seen. But it does feel like a mine cart.Upkeep/Presentation
Little-by-little its structure has decayed. Long since crossed the point where its degradation suited its rustic, 1800s mining theme.Queue/Efficiency
In its heyday with separated load and unload platforms the queue moved swiftly, but low staffing, few cars and a single platform killed that towards the end.More Reviews
