Comfort on Snow Whites Mine Train for Larger Guests

[Lurch]

I am 6'6" and 300 lbs and had no issues. In fact I fit better on 7DMT than Splash, or Space mountain.

My husband is 6'4 350lbs. He fit. He gets a bruise on his thigh every time.... But he fit . I think it also depends on where you carry your weight. His weight is very evenly distributed and he doesn't look like he weighs 350. But, someone who carries their weight in their hips or thighs, may have an issue. I've seen a lot of Pooh sized adults getting on the ride and fitting. My husband said that if he pulled the bar down too far, it was almost unbearable. But he now pulls it down just right and the bruising hasn't been as bad.

Hi I normally would not do this but I want pooh sized people to try and ride mine train! I rode several times with my daughter and its really tigh but doable and worth it. I normally would not post my pic but I want everyone to see my size and it may help some feel more confident about riding!

In my opinion it is all about your legs and how thick they are. I have thick legs. Fairly muscular, but big thighs. I had no issues with stomach but I could not get comfortable at all in that cart. Lucky for me my son was next to me because I had to raise my butt up off the seat to fit my legs in.

I gave it two tries in June. Cute ride, but to short for that kind of uncomfortable feeling. Guess this June my son can have his FP and mine. I won't ride again. I have lost about 30 pounds but still have thick legs...lol.

Thank you for sharing. You're beautiful no matter what size you are. I'm glad that you thought it was worth the experience. I have a couple of FP+ for it and just found out today that DS is tall enough to ride! It looks like so much fun from the video I saw on youtube.

Those pics are amazing! You two look like you are having a blast - I LOVE seeing people's goofy ride photos (I especially love your face in the second picture - what a classic )

Thanks for posting this. I really appreciate the info and can't wait to experience this ride myself!

These are all so great, thank you for sharing! Not only does it help with my size concerns, but it totally cheered me up.

The biggest thing your DH needs to worry is not squishing the tenders. Advice from my DH to all guys - step in, lift, sit down.

Lol this! Hubby is 6' 380, and stands up a bit when bringing the lap bar down, helps with the squish factor.

 

[jerseygal]

I had no problem with it. I thought DH would.....6' 4" and 280, but he was fine.

My WORRY was DH height! He is also ALMOST 6'4"...
Really looking forward to trying it!

Jadebaby0714, If you don't mind my question, could you tell me how tall you are? Our shapes are pretty similar. I am 5'4" and have a badonkadonk in addition to heavy legs. I was so fearful to try Mine Train, especially after reading all the comments on another thread, until I saw your post. I have avoided riding some rides such a Dumbo out of fear but really want to ride Mine Train. Thanks again for sharing!
