This, one of the reasons. And once again, there are possible issues for running backwards regarding the system for the 2 grade crossings between Main Street and Frontierland.


Water tower, maintenance/tool shed, blowdown location, etc.


Too much work for what they need just for it all to be temporary. Remember, this isn’t the DLRR. They don’t use a garden hose from Home Depot. And I’m not sure what, if any, locations there are between Main Street and Frontierland that would even be suitable for temporary water, tool shed, and blowdown infrastructures.
I don't know that I'd call 5+ years temporary.

No, it is no longer part of the audio track since the train is only going between Main Street and Fantasyland, and this audio was part of the trip from Frontierland to Fantasyland.
Thanks I was secretly hoping it would still go through Frontierland and just not have the station there open. Frontierland part is the best part.

It would be really nice if during these next 5 years of construction, they add scenery to the actual train route... I mean something really worth seeing that reflects each land... not a barrel here and there to represent Adventureland...lol but real honest show scenes... Allow the train to tell a full story...not just transportation to Tiana's Foods Factory...

I mean Tiki room and Alien Encounter make a ton of sense for stitch... much better than Zazu and Iago
Yeah, music is inherently tied to Stitch, with all the Elvis and stuff. Tiki Room becoming Stitch is the most tasteful retheme it could get, I know Moana is valid but music isn't as tied to the character as it is for Stitch.

And Alien Encounter should've been a slam dunk if they didn't try to still make it 'scary'. People want to see Stitch get his head stuck in a peanut butter jar, not terrorize them. Which in turn shows that 'scary scary' isn't a good fit for MK (sorry ALIEN, I love you but you should retheme ToT instead because that's awesome), but I think the classic type of scary that Disney Villains are known for would work great for Villains.

It's only going back and forth between Main Street and Storybook Circus.

But that’s what they’d be…….temporary infrastructures………..because that’s what this shuttle service is, even if it does turn out to be 5 years.

And speaking of the “5 years”, was there an announcement from Disney that specifically said the WDWRR would be operating shuttle service for a minimum 5 years and it won’t return to a full loop before villains/cars land opens? If so, can you attach the release? I must’ve missed it.

Nobody said there was. I heard Railroad CM’s on the last day of the grand circle tour said “5 years” “several years” and “many years”

None of us have a crystal ball though.

I'd rather have Ludwig Von Drake provide narration for the Walt Disney World Railroad. Disneychris actually has the full audio of Ludwig narrating the Disneyland Railroad during Disneyland's State Fair Event between 1986 and 1987.


Heck, Baloo and Kit even did narration during the Disney Afternoon Avenue event in 1991 between Frontierland and Videopolis.

I think a randomized, rotating cast would be adorable. Maybe one to represent each part of the park?

Stitch for Tomorrowland, Louis for Frontierland, Pooh or a princess for Fantasyland, one of the Tiki Birds or a pirate for Adventureland (no IPs in Adventureland really huh?), Mickey for Main Street USA....

I think it's a cute way to add flavor.

It would have been nice to add Dinos to the route last time it was down, but wdw doesnt deserve nice things
