The highest voted Wowhead comments for this page. They are community notes, not TheWoWDB comments.
Like so many things in World of Warcraft, this quest's name is a reference, in this case to Mr. Toad's Wild Ride in Disneyland.
This reference has double meaning, in the resemblance of the mine cart ride to a traditional dark ride, the ride type of which Mr. Toad's is an example.
If the goblin is not there when you leave the mine cart just relog

Okay, {name}, we need to get to the earth portal at the back of the cave. I've "procured" a ride for us. Why walk when we can ride in style? I hope you don't mind mine carts. Let me know when you're ready.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Water of Life
Take my Water of Life and pass it into the corpse of the drowned dwarf. He was a worker of metals in life, and though his body now feeds my loch, the Water will allow him to tell you what you want to know. Then take your information and be gone from my demesne.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- A Little on the Side
You know, it's our moral obligation to save all of this Elementium from the shale spiders. Those creepy things eat the stuff! What a waste! So, what do you say? 90/10 my way?
