Newport, RI - This summer, guests at Newport Pleasure Gardens will journey back to a simpler time with the extension of their Mine Town-themed area.
The new area is an expansion of the current loosely themed section of the park, which already features a log flume and patio restaurant.
The new area can only be accessed by crossing the park's small lake, on what is being called "The Pier." The area will open with two new attractions and an eatery, including one roller coaster
The roller coaster, "Hill Runner," is manufactured by Arrow Dynamics in the popular runaway mine train style. The coaster features quick turns, hills and dips, and a constant out-of-control feeling. The park has not released the cost of the ride.
"We really wanted to build on the success we had last year, and we're sure that Hill Runner and the rest of Mine Town will not disappoint our guests," said CEO, Robert Clarke.
Also opening with the park is "Rising Smoke," a themed paratrooper ride, and the Burger Bar, an outdoor patio restaurant serving fresh-grilled hamburgers and other traditional American food.
The Mine Town area will open with the park this Saturday, May 5.
