    MK Cool Ship Now Closed for Refurbishment at Magic Kingdom

    There was a permit right around the pandemic closure for demolition. I know the queue is still there because they had a photo op there one christmas party. Really a coin toss whether its a operations dump area with attraction elements, or an operations dump area without.

    MK Big Thunder Mountain to receive full retrack

    They got a really late start on that part of the project due to demo. Throwing up walls is easy but I dont know what kind of tooling needs to be installed and calibrated in the maintenance shed. Based on the building height there could possibly be a gantry crane install. Very possible that area...

    EPCOT Test Track to be reimagined

    Major construction projects absolutely have a proscribed sequence. Teams dont just go around completing work as they have time and material available. That would be absolute chaos and require tons of rework. In this example, laying concrete means theyre done with heavy machinery that could mar...

    MK Cool Ship Now Closed for Refurbishment at Magic Kingdom

    When I wes looking for that tweet I came across one where he said he thought it would outlast everything else he designed. Sad.

    MK Cool Ship Now Closed for Refurbishment at Magic Kingdom

    Icarus Exhibits filed the permit, so it should at least be themed enough that they had to hire artists over a general contractor.

    MK Cool Ship Now Closed for Refurbishment at Magic Kingdom

    Jim Schull claimed to have lead this project and said it was not the prop. Jim seems to be intentionally inflammatory on X/Twitter, but I believe him on this one.

    EPCOT Test Track to be reimagined

    Could be that the job will be finished by some general upgrades budget, just odd. Usually the Fancy New Thing pays.

    EPCOT Test Track to be reimagined

    Judging by the kind of work theyre doing and that they've been running cars for a month, I feel like mid to late July is possible. That being said, the over is always a safe bet with WDI.

    EPCOT Test Track to be reimagined

    Im confused whats going on with the pavement. It looks scored to be removed, but the work seems done.

    Weather Experiments in Magic Kingdom

    There is an identical station on Lighthouse Point, the DCL destination, as of last week. I thought it was odd because it looked so temporary.

    MK All-New Nighttime Parade Disney Starlight Set to Debut at Magic Kingdom in 2025

    There was a permit for the parade building by a company that specializes in shade structures. My suspicion was they were improving outdoor storage, but it sounds like whatever they added isn't enough...

    MK Astro Orbiter closing for extended refurbishment in Mid-January 2025

    Might as well paint it beige. The red called back to Apollo. Anything else just doesn't hit the same.

    MK Big Thunder Mountain to receive full retrack

    I Suspect the open areas were seeing are going to be the easiest part. That being said, theyre clearly trying to move the crane parts as fast as possible. Using a mobile crane and prioritizing the lifts shows that. It never crossed my mind that they wouldn't use a tower. Getting that thing out...

    DAK “Zootopia” is being created for the Tree of Life theater

    Interesting permit here. Guess we can assume there will be some cryo/smoke element to the show. https://forums.wdwmagic.com/threads/permits-2025.985332/post-11167207

    Rumor MK Space Mountain REVISED in 2026? (One track? side-by-side seating?)

    Id just love to see what RMC could do with this attraction and raptor track. Shame Disney wont touch them.
