At the Magic Kingdom, Big Thunder Mountain Railroad is almost an identical mirror image of the Disneyland version, except for having an enclosed loading station on a hillside, the replacement of Big Thunder with Tumbleweed, and altered section of layout before the second lift hill.

In this version, upon entering the queue, guests make their way up the hillside past old mining equipment to the station building. Once inside, the queue snakes through the upper level of the two level station.

The queue then reaches the loading station. After a wait, guests enter the 30 passenger trains. On the signal of a flashing green lantern at the head end of the platform, the train is clear to leave the station.
