Gadget's Go Coaster

Chip 'n' Dale's GADGETcoaster

Opened: January 24, 1993

Train theme: hand build acorn pods, built by Gadget

Sponsor: Sparkle Paper Towels (A Georgia-Pacific Company)


This ride is primarily for children and therefore has small cars. While two children can fit into a single car, most adults would have to travel alone (or with a small child). The last time I rode this ride I was folded up into the tiny car.  Good thing the ride only lasts 44 seconds!

Before traveling up a lift hill, riders pass by a figure of Gadget (voiced by Tress MacNeille) as she says various comments. After the lift hill, riders then travel down and around Toon Lake. Near the end of the ride (the fastest turn), riders pass in-between a figure of Chip blowing through a straw with Zipper, and a figure of Dale holding a cup as Chip attempts to shoot water above riders' heads into the cup. The coaster comes to a stop and pulls into the station.

The attraction was closed for a refurbishment in March 9, 2022 and reopened in March 19, 2023 with its current name and also received new character figures Chip, Dale, Gadget and Zipper from the television series.


Have you been on this ride?  Do you like it?  I think it's the best ride in Toon Town, but I haven't been on Mickey's Runaway Railroad yet, so we'll see about that!


Here's Lissa, Patti, and some of our boys waiting in line.


Here we are, next in line!


I decided to take some video of this ride without realizing just how short it is.  I think we waited in line 10-15 minutes to ride this short, short ride!
