During our Media Preview for Toy Story Land (which opens tomorrow!), we learned some really exciting news about a new attraction coming to Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Lightning McQueen’s Racing Academy will make its debut in 2019! But, of course, it won’t be the only attraction coming to the park next year. Along with everything coming to Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, it will join another previously announced attraction…
Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway

It was so much fun to hear more about Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway, which will also open in 2019. It was shared that the Runaway Railway will have “the look, feel, sound, comedy and cadence of Mickey shorts cartoons, and guests will be placed right in the middle.”

And the story? That will be about YOU! We humans will find ourselves in a cartoon world “where anything can happen” on an unpredictable adventure with Mickey and Minnie and their best friends… including Goofy as the Train Engineer! Here’s a glimpse at some newly revealed concept art for the attraction!

We also got to see this image of what looks at a glance like 2D art, but is actually a physical model for that cartoon world!

Love Mickey and Minnie so this is super exciting to me. I’m going to love this ride!
Where at Hollywood Studios will this ride be?
Yes! I am so excited for this ride! Mickey is my absolute favorite.
My family LOVES the new cartoons and I cannot wait for this ride! What month will it open?
Stephanie, we await a specific timeline!
Tonya, Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway is replacing the Great Movie Ride, which closed last year.
This makes me extremely sad. I really hate what they have done to Walt’s and the other animators’ drawings of the characters. This cheap and ugly new stick figure drawing method insults them!
Is there a official opening date yet?
Wendy, not yet! We’ll post when we hear!
