Hop into a rustic mine car and journey back to the spectacular opening year of New Fantasyland! This is a full, uncut front-seat ride-through of the iconic "Seven Dwarfs Mine Train" roller coaster at Magic Kingdom in Bay Lake, Florida, beautifully preserved from November 9, 2014—just six months after the ride officially opened to the world.
As the centerpiece of the largest expansion in Magic Kingdom history, this innovative family coaster takes you on a musical journey through the classic world of Snow White. This rare, launch-era archive captures the experience in its absolute pristine, debut condition. Watch as the unique pivoting cradles allow the mine cars to swing back and forth independently through sharp outdoor switchbacks, before slowing down to enter the glowing, jewel-filled diamond mine where Doc, Grumpy, Happy, Sleepy, Bashful, Sneezy, and Dopey are hard at work singing "Heigh-Ho."
If you remember the massive multi-hour lines surrounding the 2014 opening of this attraction, love tracking Disney Imagineering history, or just want to relive the magic of opening year, hit that Subscribe button and turn on notifications for more vintage amusement park archives and travel reviews! 💎🎢⛏️🍎
