The newest attraction to be themed on Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs is the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train at 迪士尼 World. It is part of the expanded Fantasyland and is a rollercoaster themed around, obviously, the diamond mine the dwarfs work in.
Only opening in 2014, I've yet to ride it, but as a massive 粉丝 of rollercoasters I look 前锋, 期待 to putting the experience 最佳, 返回页首 of my 列表 when we return to Florida in the future.
Courtesy of Youtube, it looks like a fun, not-too-intense coaster with some good dips and curves. The highlights look to be the dark ride elements. The trains pass through the diamond mine allowing riders to witness some amazing animatronic dwarves. The ride also ends 由 passing the dwarves' cottage where they are dancing with Snow White to The Silly Song in a set-up highly familiar from the Snow White's Scary Adventures ride. Indeed, the figures are recycled from that ride as it was closed prior to this ride being opened. The animatronic witch lurking outside the cottage window is another amazing piece of animatronic wizardry.
A pleasing inclusion of this ride, from the evidence of the video, is the interactive queue line. I think this is something 迪士尼 is doing 更多 and 更多 of, and rightly so. There is nothing 更多 soul-destroying and boring as waiting in a meandering queue line shuffling inch 由 inch towards a ride. Putting stuff in before the ride itself adds magic and helps distract everyone, adults and children alike, from the terminal boredom of waiting for your ride. I hope this is a continuing trend as new rides are built and old rides are reinvented (the ongoing restorations at Disneyland Paris are a perfect opportunity for rides like Mountains Thunder and 太空 to have their queue lines jazzed up a bit).
Seven Dwarfs Mine Train is definitely on my to-do list; and I wonder if it will appear at any of the other parks in the future.

Seven Wise Dwarfs is an odd cartoon short made during the 秒 World War when 迪士尼 provided a fair bit of propaganda for the war effort; this time for Canada.
It begins with the familiar scenes of the dwarves diamond mining and 唱歌 Heigh Ho. However, when they leave they do not return to their cottage as in the film but to their local Post Office!
Here they discover that they can spend their hard-earned diamonds on War Certificates. This seems to be a scheme whereby ordinary Canadian citizens could put 'loan' their savings to the war effort to help in funding the building of planes, tanks and the like.
It is not something I had ever come across before delving into the furthest reaches of the internet as I explore material for this blog and it really stands out as little 更多 than an extended advertisement. An oddity.
