News Big Thunder Mountain Railroad closing for brief period in January 2024

[Bocabear]

Who doesn't love Big Thunder? I hope they spread a little love to Big Thunder soon and give the ride back it's finale...or the new blasting finale... or any kind of real finale would be great. It is such a beautiful attraction... it deserves the attention.

Not a chance. This is the same company that took over 4 years to build some nice gardens at Epcot's Center.

I would imagine the rocking chairs near the exit are now one of the most peaceful places in MK with both mountains in the area being down. Only thing across the Tiana bridge is the rafts.

Is the geyser still there?

According to My Disney Experience, it appears Big Thunder Mountain Railroad has reopened a little earlier than planned. Thrill-Data started showing wait times around 5:40pm.

Hours on the Walt Disney World website have been updated.

Wow…fast turnaround.

Curious as to what needed to be worked on.

Might have just been inspections and some very routine stuff. I doubt they touched anything guests would notice, if they even did anything at all.
