Located inside a seven and half story building, the story is that you're here to board a train that will explore a series of dark caves and underground Texas tunnels. Unfortunately, the theme isn't really conveyed and it's really just a twisty roller coaster ride in complete darkness. Oddly, the track layout for Runaway Mountain is remarkably similar to the Windstorm coasters built by S.D.C., S&MC, and Zamperla.
