It's true, they are. However, they're really really bad at it. Station stops have been 15 to 20 minutes at each station. Wish I was exaggerating. They're timing is awful but also to be expected. I'm sure most of them are new to running the railroad after 4 years of not having to run it at all.

They’ll figure it out real fast.

Perhaps I missed it, but I was thinking the reopening would be this huge deal..music, countdown, characters and crew arrive on the train, fireworks shoot from the station - similar to how the old welcome show used to be...
Was there any fanfare for the 4 year later return of a favorite attraction?

Update:. They are now down from three train operation to just 1. They need aot of practice.
I got on at Main Street USA at 2:33pm. Took about 10 minutes or so and we were finally on our way. Roy had a long delay at Frontierland Station. But after 10 minutes there we were again on our way. We got to Fantasyland Station but by 3:15 gave up and left so I would not miss the parade. As luck would have it soon after I left on foot for town square Roy left Fantasyland Station and easily beat me there. He then remained at the station for the duration for the parade. When he left the station attendants mention Roy was now the only train on the line.
So it's 4pm now with one
. But at least it's going.
On a lighter note: maybe it was due to the accident that unfolded directly Infront of me during the parade? There was a "train" accident where as I watched the locomotive disconnected from the rest of the train and then went all the way around the track and smacked into the back of the train! It then began pushing it's train around instead of pulling it. Fortunately no one was hurt.
Oh the drama..... on the parade float's model railroad ,
But the WDWRR really is now running with one. Sigh

I saw they were there, but in the videoweshouldntname that had a good audio, I didn’t hear the rattlesnake audio like obvious olden days...I don’t think the audio was there even before Covid, but I’m thinking back to 80s time on the train.

Since the railroad is closing at 6, and if crowds weren’t bad, maybe they thought they could get away with just one train. Either that or Walter and Lilly’s computer went haywire lol.

That’s nothing unusual. Last train usually departs Main Street 15-20mins before official closure.

Is it possible the new narration was recorded BEFORE they had decided to close Splash and that's why it's still there?

If we talking about the rattlesnake at the big Thunder mountain railroad scene? It definitely has sound. The rattle is still there.

No, editing the narration isn’t that hard.

Oh yeah! Forgot about those. Sorry did not specifically notice.
Crazy to think the Railroad was closed longer than Splash has been on the chopping block
