Adventure Express
Take a fantastic adventure on a runaway mine train. This coaster is perfect for those loking for a break from our more intense coasters.
The Ride goes through 4 heavily themed tunnels with 2 chainlifts. It has a wooden lay-out with a steel track. Very nice view of Son of Beast.

Beastie
Your little ones think they are ready for this one, but most of the time they aren't. Of course this ride isn't nearly as bad as its brother ( Son of Beast ) or its dad ( The Beast ), but Beastie can be rough for the little ones.

Now here's a ride for the little ones, but anyone can ride it as long as there is a kid with you. Top Cat's Taxi Jam is a nice little rollercoaster that goes around the track twice. It doesn't get going too fast, it does this to accomodate the wee ones.
