Gadget’s Go Coaster | Mickey’s

Wednesday, May 7th, 2008

Gadget’s Go Coaster is a roller coaster at the Disneyland theme park in Anaheim, California and Tokyo Disneyland theme park, located in Urayasu, Chiba, Japan, near Tokyo. The ride is based on the work of the popular character Gadget Hackwrench from the 1989 Walt Disney Television Animation cartoon, Chip ‘n Dale Rescue Rangers

Both versions of the attraction are located in Mickey’s Toontown, and the Disneyland version opened January 23, 1993, along with the Mickey’s Toontown area. The Tokyo Disneyland version opened on April 15, 1996.

Ride

The Go Coaster is primarily for children and therefore has very small cars. While two children can easily fit into a single car, most adults would have to travel alone (or with a small child). Guests board a train fashioned from acorns and scavenged parts. Guests travel through Gadget’s salvaged old comb, soup can and thread spool, and over a small lake.
