The unique train I rode before this was "Tibidabo Express" (at Tibidabo Amusement Park , Barcelona, Spain) and I liked this much more :O Theming is spectacular!

Great fun ride that my two little ones love. You can ride this from 90cm high so it's a great introduction into thrill rides . There's a nice little positive G feeling at the bottom of the spiral :).

Quite a good ride to bridge the gap between the kids coasters and adult coasters. It's quick, but no loops or serious stuff. Great for nervous little ones before throwing them onto Rita or Nemesis!

If you have a Merlin pass get in at 9am and you can go round about four times without getting off! No queues!!

Queues actually move pretty fast on here. Displayed waiting time was 40 but got through in 20. Worth the wait if it's only that long. - Makinder Chahal
