This topic needs more mine trains.
It's not an exhaustive list - there's a bit of memory involved and I've stuck to stuff that makes some attempt to be themed beyond just having the front car of the train and a non-specific name (Bob Express, Furio etc.)
There are also many, many silly little things with mine train in their name that have been skipped (Zamperla 80STDs, Vekoma Juniors etc.)
1) Big Thunder Mountain @ Disneyland Paris
2) Big Grizzly Mountain @ Hong Kong Disneyland
3) Big Thunder Mountain Railroad @ Disneyland
4) Big Thunder Mountain @ Tokyo Disneyland
5) Seven Dwarves Mine Train @ Shanghai Disneyland
In order of most to least thrilling, all the Disney ones are just the ultimate mine train really - they really capture the joy and essence of mine exploration with their incredible theming.
6) Gran Montserrat @ Parque Espana
6) Colorado Adventure @ Phantasialand - My favourites outside of Disney for being ridiculously forceful and fun.
7) Quicksilver Express @ Gilroy Gardens - Bit of a wildcard and the second half gets surprisingly good. Got some history too.
8) Mine Train Ulven @ Bakken
8) Mine Train Coaster @ Happy Valley Shanghai
The Intamins with their back row ejector and smooth, snappy layout.
10) Mine Coaster @ Quancheng Euro Park - Unintentionally stupidly forceful
11) Wild West Mine Train @ Ocean Park - Beautiful, unnerving, a classic.
11) Diablo @ Portaventura
12) Eldorado @ Etnaland
The party coasters - pure rollercoaster joy with the right crowd.
14) TNT Tren de la Mina @ Parque de Atracciones de Madrid - Quality family coaster, Gerst style.
15) Gold Rusher @ Six Flags Magic Mountain
16) Runaway Mine Train @ Six Flags Great Adventure
Couple of Arrows that were a laugh.
17) Mammut @ Gardaland - Same as the below, but with a third lift!
18) Calamity Mine @ Walibi Belgium
18) Crazy Mining Cart @ Lewa Adventure
18) Jungle Racing @ Happy Valley Beijing
18) Land of Lost Souls @ Oriental Heritage Wuhu
18) Mine Train Coaster @ Happy Valley Chongqing - (feat. Golden Horse using Vekoma's new look track)
18) Mount Tanggula @ Fantawild Adventure Zhengzhou
18) Mount Tanggula @ Fantawild Adventure Xiamen
18) Night Rescue @ Oriental Heritage Jinan
18) Olandese Volante @ Rainbow Magicland
18) Vesuvio Volcano @ Fantawild Adventure Shenyang
All those double lift layouts... the classic Vekoma 785m or Golden Horse KSC-26A
There's a bit of a thrill here and there, but they're all a bit poorly tracked and feel a bit, what's that word I've been using lately... janky. I think it's the length of the trains and the massive differential between front and back. Like those huge Zierer Tivolis but scaled up.
28) Runaway Mine Train @ Alton Towers - Only powered with a bit of a kick to it, they just don't really do anything.
29) Miniwah @ Freizeitpark Plohn - All indoors with nice theming. No more thrills with these though.
30) Alpenexpress Enzian @ Europa Park - Mmm.... theming. Eww... VR.
31) Grottenblitz @ Heide Park - Bit less theming.
32) Gruvbanan @ Skara Sommarland - Bit less again.
33) Miniera d'Oro Del West @ Fiabilandia - Cute
34) Scorpion Express @ Chessington World of Adventures - Better before.
35) Dynamite Express @ Drievliet - needed RCDB to remind me it had any theming.
36) Gold Mine Train @ Nigloland - likewise, but noisier.
37) Trailblazer @ Hersheypark
38) Carolina Goldrusher @ Carowinds
39) Dahlonega Mine Train @ Six Flags Over Georgia
The boring arrows
40) Mine Coaster @ Beijing Shijingshan Amusement Park - it's more tree than ride now, so had comedy on its side.
41) Colorado Adventure @ Phantasialand - only mine train I actively didn't like because it punched me in the head (weird, right?). It rides the same as I described the other Vekomas so don't see the fuss.
