The Disney website won't load on my computer and I've been searching the internet all morning, but I can't find the list of stops anywhere!

Could someone please tell me if the train stops in Dallas? Or even the DFW area?

Thanks for posting that interview with Carrey and Zemeckis. The film looks amazing- I'm a huge Zemeckis fan...really who didn't like Forrest Gump and Back to the Future? I am sure he is the perfect guy to handle such a classic film.

I know I am going to check out the train when it comes to the DC! I'd have to say that I am really looking forward to seeing that new footage!!

I'm actually surprised it's coming to Indy! But very glad. May have to make the drive down to see it. What a great idea. Props to whoever thought of this one

Wow I hadn't heard about a remake of this film until I found this thread. I like some of Jim's movies and I love alot of variations of the Dickens tale, so I hope this one comes out really well.

As far as the tour, I live in Chicago but will be at WDW when it is here so boo but maybe I can see it in Sept in Louisville while my gf is at law school.

Is there an official release date for the movie or just in November sometime?

The film comes out November 6th! Have you seen the film's poster yet? Jim Carrey looks amazing as Ebenezer - I can't wait to see him as one of his 6 other characters in the film. I mean really can you think of a better actor for this movie??

Thought you might enjoy this interview with him on the train tour too - hopefully you'll get to check it out!
 
I went to the Christmas Carol Train when it came to Union Station in Denver.

It opened at 9am, we got there at 9:30 and it was a 2 and a half hour wait.

It took us about 20 minutes to go through, with about a 10 min. sneak peak film in 3D at the end.

The train itself was pretty neat. I for sure expected more for that long of a wait. There were only a few items of Charles Dickens, mostly screens along the wall of the train cars showing about the movie. I'd say there were probably 6 train cars, and 2 or 3 of them were just filled with the machines that take your pic then put your face on 1 of 3 characters from the film.

I thought it was neat but for sure not worth the wait. So if you have small children I would consider arriving very early, like an hour or two, or at least that is what the people working the tour said we should have done.

Wow you went through the tour really fast. I have been hearing great things actually, especially regarding the 3D footage and all the entertainers stationed along the line, I have a soft spot for carolers...I'll be sure to post my thoughts post my DC visit! Honestly free entertainment these days is worth the wait for me.

Here is a review of the train tour with tons of photos - made me wish it was coming to Washington sooner!
