Main Street Train Station

[Father Robinson]

Brand new clock? Or just a facelift?

Looks new, but that could be the magic of a great painter!

It's so weird seeing some recent paint jobs come out looking absolutely stunning like this one, and some are coming out looking like... the castle.

lol exactly my thoughts. I'd love to know if these are all different teams or just coincidence.

Wild guess, but maybe the castle was an "important" project that had to have more input from people who don't normally care about these kinds of refurbishments and the end result is the influence of people with a lack of understanding/experience.

This was years overdue. The shingles were literally grey in some areas by the time the scrims went up.

Will the calliope and arcade games finally be working? Or will they be completely missing in action? Time will tell!

The issue is driving and walking across where the tracks would be for the construction of Tron. That means no way to re-route the track.

There certainly was a way. Not simple, and not cheap, but there was a way.

Any idea when that scrim is coming down? I'm sure they're doing whatever it is they do..for the 50th, but any mention of when they'll be finished? Going at the end of August and approaching the train station is one of those magical "we're finally here" moments.

You know what would even be more magical? The train running who knows how many years that will take to finish. I wonder if it’s bad for the engines to sit idle this long?

I’m sure the maintenance team is Keeping them in good repair. The Walter and Roger have been getting rebuilt at Strasburg and the Roy will probably only be used as a backup until he’s rebuilt anyways.

Maybe the boiler is being redone again?

I was worried for nothing I guess. I like the color Choice. As it does make it look like 1901 Marceline. Now. It really dose pop.. need the train chugging through to make the whole scene vintage. Good job Imaginaires on the paint color!

There are 4 locomotives - Roy is the only one left to be rebuilt.

When are the trains supposed to be back?

When are the trains supposed to be back?

Pretty sure not until Tron is complete unless I'm remembering wrong
