Those who I spoke to state otherwise. Believe what you want.

I’ll believe what I know to be true.

But for the sake of argument if not economic factors, why do you believe they would close Muppet Courtyard now?

Anyone who doesn't believe Disney would close a restaurant early, or for days or months at a time, to save on operating costs has clearly never been to Disneyland Paris.

They won’t even operate all of their train stations to save a few Euro.

At least now one of the closed ones is getting a top to bottom refurbishment

Also…. The way they operate the railroad is pretty inefficient - I feel like that factors into it as well. The dwell time at stations is pretty crazy.

Really only the WDWRR and WRRR at TDL operate efficiently IMO

We made the mistake of trying to ride their RR last time. Won’t again. Somehow, MK’s is more efficient with one train in shuttle mode!

Disneyland does when they have 3 trains running. It was rough when the signals were down though.

Since I wanted to ride behind both locomotives it was extra challenging to get them both in - but hey - it’s a lovely route once you get underway.

I’ve never been to DLP so would be curious to understand why this is the case. Especially since Paris was built after other castle park railroads

it has nothing to do with how the railroad is designed or built - it’s how they load the trains. I’m going to guess the CM’s are slow and deliberate when seating guests to avoid people pushing and shoving.

Now the work can REALLY begin.

 

[Gusey]

I don't know why the car park lines around the door coaster is making me laugh so much.

Is it possible that they closed the Muppet courtyard area already because they need to do some underground work there in connection to the coaster building? Water pipes or electrical cables that they want going underground towards the coaster building, hence why they closed the courtyard now as they need that doing first?

The building would'nt need those things until late in the construciton process. They could have brough them out from the building to a point outside the couryard and did the tie-in later.

Ok, NOW I believe Monsters Inc Land is coming

 

[TrainsOfDisney]

Surprised they ripped out the entire courtyard.

I will also point out the obvious - Toy Story land has been criticized for not having shade and indoor areas…. They just tore down a large building that could have been used to help them not make the same mistake in this land.
