Big Thunder Mountain Railroad

waiting in line at Big Thunder Mountain Railroad

Big Thunder Mountain (5)


Big Thunder Mountain Railroad is another Frontierland favorite. This rickety old train zooms around and through Big Thunder Mountain. For three minutes you are transported to the mining days. Even the smell of sulfur is in the air as you twist and turn around the mountain. Norwood and I both enjoy this ride although I have to admit when it comes around some of those curves I hold on just a little tighter. My favorite thing about Big Thunder Mountain Railroad is the Kodak Picture Spot located just outside the exit. There are some great views of the mountain there (you know just in case you had your eyes closed while you riding the train yourself).

This fantastic picture spot allows you to take photos of yourself in front of the mountain and if you are lucky and fast enough to catch some of the trains as they come around the corner and through the tunnel.
