This was one of the original pitches for the ride. Originally, the Indiana Jones ride concept was to have several different rides in one area. So in a sense you can choose which experience you want to ride. Sadly this was too ambitious and later scrapped. The high-speed mine cart ride is used later in Disneyland France. They wanted the mine cart ride to be interconnected with Train that travels around Disneyland. Other early concepts were considered including a walk-through adventure. In addition the imagineers wanted to avoid a long queue, so they considered using Jungle Cruise as a way for shuttle guests to go to the loading area
