Natures Wonderland Railroad Entrance Tunnel

An early morning photograph of the entrance tunnel you would ride under to go out to Natures Wonderland while riding the mine train. I like the mine shaft in the right hand upper corner, quite a cool little detail. Now that I live in Colorado, I can see all these old mines with similar structures. I visited an actual mine last weekend and rode a similar train through part of the mine. It was quite an experience. You can definitely tell that the imagineers did their homework when designing this ride as the experience was similar to my memories of riding this ride.

I wonder how many people even noticed most of the details like the mine shaft? Or the posters of the woman in front of the opera house.
