Big Thunder Mountain Railroad is a roller coaster at Tokyo Disneyland. Here’s how it’s advertised on the official website (https://www.tokyodisneyresort.jp):
“It’s a few decades after the big gold rush. The rush now is from the mine trains that careen at high speed through the old gold mine. You’re headed straight for the rocky side of the mountain or going down fast at a tilt … You’ll be screaming with the thrills!”

Big Thunder Mountain at Tokyo Disneyland is similar to the Florida version, but there are some differences in the ride layout. Instead of Tumbleweed, the track makes a left turn and dives into a cave, mirroring the California version of the ride. More significantly, the final segment of the ride is different. Instead of crossing back over the drop from the third lift hill, the track makes a 180 degree turn to the right before dropping out of a tunnel, through the Boneyard/geyser scene, into a short tunnel. The track then makes a right hand turn into the final brakes. The trains pass in front of the station building, and then turn back into the loading area. (Source: Wikipedia)

The troublesome damsel was only slightly tipsy this time, but due to poor gravity, she decided to sit and wait for the train, which she finally managed to board. But her sister (watch for her!) was drinking the whole time!
