Here are 10 Facts About Seven Dwarfs Mine Train in Magic Kingdom
1. Fastpass+ is a must for this attraction. If you are staying at a Disney resort, you can book your Fastpass+ at 7 AM EST on the 60th day before your arrival date. When your window opens, immediately try for a Fastpass+ for your last full day in the parks. After you secure that one, begin working towards your arrival date snagging Fastpass+ for the attractions you want to experience.
2. The interactive queue features an area where guests can sort gemstones and twirl buckets of gemstones to create magical projections on the ceiling. Tap the soap on the gemstone game and it will squirt off the screen.
3. The mine cart ride vehicle will rock back and forth throughout the ride. You can make it rock more by swaying your body from side to side. Just make sure only your family is in your cart! There are 2 rows of seat per cart.
4. The Dwarfs cottage is a detailed representation of the home in the movie including the birdhouse on the front door. Make sure you look as you pass the house to see who is peeking in the window.
5. The figures of Grumpy, Sleepy, Doc, Happy and Bashful in the cottage were from Snow White’s Scary Adventure ride that closed to make way for the Princess Fairytale Hall. The vultures near the mine entrance are also from Snow White’s Scary Adventure.
6. The mine cart was designed to reflect the carts from the movie. It appears to be handmade from wood, shaped by an ax and has hand-hammered metal bands and nails used to bind the wood. They tip and sway to allow them to be loaded with jewels.

8. There are twelve wooden spigots in the queue that represent the animals that the Dwarfs befriend in the film. Each of these spigots play a note in the chromatic scale and when put together they play the melody from the movie.
