Y’all. What a day!
Holiday decor on the Main Street, U.S.A. Train Station
Disney has announced a critical change to 1-day, 1-park tickets, upcoming price changes for Park Hopping, a Park Pass change, and Annual Pass price increases, but that’s not all! When it comes to Magic Kingdom specifically, we’ve got an update on the Walt Disney World Railroad!
We’ve been keeping a very close eye out for updates on the Walt Disney World Railroad, which has been closed for an extended period of time due to the construction being done on the upcoming TRON ride.
Thus far, we’ve seen more railroad tracks added near the TRON ride…

…and more updates near the Fantasyland Railroad station.
Things Are Looking Good
We’ve also heard about the refurbishment that has been done on one of the railroad engines and we’ve seen some train testing going on too. But now we’ve spotted something else…and it’s VERY exciting!
Planes, Trains, and Automobiles Discussion
On the morning of November 15th, we walked into Magic Kingdom and were greeted by a surprising and wonderful sight –a Walt Disney World Railroad train was up on the Main Street, U.S.A. station. Now that’s something we haven’t seen in quite some time!

The train is HERE folks! 🚂

Hello Beautiful!!!
We spotted a few different people up on the train station and we could even see some people sitting on the train.
We Can’t Wait for It To Be Back
We later saw the train moving.
Still Not Available for Guests Though
Later in the day, we spotted the train again.

A Cast Member indicated that train testing is going on.
When Can We Join?!
We cannot wait until it’s our turn to hop in those seats again!
We’re Getting Closer
Keep in mind that the Walt Disney World Railroad is still closed to guests.
Not Available Yet
But it is exciting to see some action at this train station.
Soon We’ll Be Able to Go Up There Again
A reopening date for the railroad has not yet been announced, but we do know that some Cast Members have already begun training on the railroad. We’ll keep an eye out for updates and let you know what we find.
