Big Thunder Mountain Railroad
Big Thunder Mountain Railroad is a Frontierland (or Westernland) attraction at Disneyland, Magic Kingdom, Tokyo Disneyland, and Disneyland Paris. The original version opened at Disneyland in 1979. At the two international parks, the attraction is just known as Big Thunder Mountain. It was conceived by Imagineer Tony Baxter.
Though the names of the fictional mining towns vary, the backstory of Big Thunder Mountain Railroad generally includes people discovering gold on Big Thunder Mountain, the area becoming a booming mining town featuring mine trains, followed by a natural tragedy (an earthquake, tsunami, or flash flood) that led to the town being abandoned. The trains, however, continued to run on their own, and Big Thunder Mountain Railroad was established for visitors to ride them.
The original Disneyland version of Big Thunder Mountain Railroad was based on hoodoos of Bryce Canyon National Park in Utah, while the rest were based on buttes of Arizona and Monument Valley. The Disneyland version also features references to Mine Train Through Nature’s Wonderland, the less thrilling train attraction that Big Thunder Mountain Railroad replaced.
At Walt Disney World, a blue sky project is in early development for “beyond” Big Thunder Mountain Railroad that could include “Coco,” “Encanto,” and Disney Villains.
