Runaway Mine Train

About

The Runaway Mine Train is a powered steel roller coaster made by MACK Rides of Germany. The ride is located in the Katanga Canyon area of Alton Towers in Staffordshire, England. The train normally completes two circuits for each ride, although it occasionally completes three circuits on off-peak days.

The ride runs alongside the Congo River Rapids and shares a tunnel section. Passengers must be at least 1.1 m tall to ride, and passengers between 1.1m and 1.3m tall must be accompanied by an adult. It is currently the park's oldest roller coaster, after The Beastie was removed prior to the 2013 season.
