All aboard the Runaway Train, but hold on - where's the driver? Where are the breaks? Don't these things get checked before a train leaves the station?
The classic Runaway Train is a long standing family favourite at Chessington World of Adventures. An innocent railroad journey through a winding mountain pass begins to go a little crazy soon after it starts.
The carriages power along the rickety track, showing no signs of slowing down as they rush through disused mines and speed through the station to take you round again. This ride is sure to be fun for kids and adults alike.
See this ride at full throttle in the Runaway Train video.
