River King Mine Train is a steel roller coaster at Six Flags St. Louis in Eureka, Missouri. The ride has a complicated history, first opening as a side-by-side coaster, the second track was removed in 1984 and the ride was converted into a custom built stand up coaster called the Rail Blazer. Due to mechanical problems and a rider falling to her death, under mysterious circumstances, during this year, the ride was converted back to a traditional sit-down coaster and the original name in 1985.
