Walt Disney World Railroad to reopen soon during ‘holiday season’
After being closed for over four years, the Walt Disney World Railroad at Magic Kingdom is expected to reopen soon welcoming guests ” once again for the holiday season,” Disney announced on the Disney Parks Blog.
The train was closed for the construction of TRON in Tomorrowland, which will open in 2023. The tracks needed to be moved to accommodate the new attraction. In addition, Disney refreshed the entire track looping the park, performed maintenance on all of the vintage steam trains and updated the narration.
“The familiar whistle of its steam engine will be complemented by exciting new sounds and voices,” the team of Imagineers shared. “A new conductor has assumed the role, carrying on the long tradition of warm welcomes and amusing anecdotes while adding fresh commentary and story to the journey.”
