Background
Pony Express was a $9 million project that was added to the Ghost Town section of the park.[3] The theme of the attraction is based on the historic Pony Express mail service.[1] The attraction is designed to give riders the experience of being part of this delivery system. The ride provides guests with views of Boot Hill and Calico River Rapids, two other attractions in Ghost Town.
