Spinning Roller Coaster

PROJECT NAME: Echo Mine Carts
RIDE TYPE: Spinning Roller Coaster with Vertical Lift
INSPIRATION: Echo Mine Chase scene from "Home on the Range".
LOCATION: Currently planned Sally Cone Motel for Carsland.

The mountain itself will contain most of the tracks. The facade and part of the queue should look like an adobe and cliff-dwelling. The vertical lift will be themed as a mine elevator shaft. At the top an explosion sends the carts down the tracks. This attraction evokes "Big Thunder Mountain Railroad". The indoor caverns will be similar to the film "Home on the Range" with brightly-lit colors. These types of attractions also feature an on-ride video for purchase.
