Originally built as an outdoor swiss bob coaster underneath the name Avalanche Run, Disaster Transport was enclose in 1990, and themed to a trip to Alaska during a Nuclear Winter.  But, as always, the pilots lose control, and you have no other choice but to hold on as you go speeding through dark turns and special lighting effects.

With a long wait and a 80 degree temperature inside, I liked the bobsled at Kings Dominion better.

Welcome to Alaska. This ride is practically a must ride at the park just for its camp factor. The ride itself is a
little boring though. 6/10.

Fast and fun with an acceptable level of theme. Yeah, I liked it but it did not leave a lasting impression and has no
rerideability factor.

The ride is too short, so that gives it a 5, but the air conditioning brings it up to a 7.

Very tame, non-thrilling ride. The only pluses to this ride is the fact that it is indoors and airconditioned, and the
themeing. But I have to be honest. The ride itself horrible.

Fun, even if it is really tame. It has to close in heavy rain for some reason, despite being indoors.

Disaster Transport. Small, yet very enjoyable. As my first indoor coaster it is still very fun. It is the only coaster
I've riden every year I've gone.

HEy Guys! I found out what that strange "12-E" Means on the sid of the ride. When the ride was put indoors and the name
was changed from avalanche run to disaster transport, the guy who did the theming's name was Eric, and it was the 12th
ride he did. :)

During the summer, the queue brings heaven and puts into two words: AIR CONDITIONING!!!!!! *Choir* HALEIGHLUYA (or
however you spell that word). But the ride in the tubes (I guess) don't have the AC.

Not very great. The theming makes up for the lack of ride. Fun, but nothing special. Expect to wait a long time because
it is both a little bit of a kiddie ride and at the front of the park.

Disaster Transport is very fun. Usually the wait isn't too bad, so you can walk right on. You start the ride off with
a very colourful lighted lift hill, then the rest of the ride has some fast turns and unexpected twists. Definitely a
lot better than what it gets credit for.

O.K., but better than the bobsled at The Great Escape.
