Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway - Disneyland

[SuddenStorm]

I wonder what this means for the hill backdrop on toontown... idk if the hills are connected to the rehearsal hall or not.

They're not.

 

[mharrington]

They're not.

Judging by the artwork, I'd say they will remain, but altered for the purpose of the new ride building, although maybe they should get rid of it to remove one less thing that needs constant repainting.

I have just watched the video on the details of the ride on DSNY Newscast, and it is amazing the detail it goes into:


It is mostly about the WDW version (no surprise, given that it's opening first), but it also talks briefly about Disneyland's upcoming version as well, mainly in terms of the exterior and part of the queue, both of which have already been put up at least once, if not more than once.

Given what was mentioned in the video, is it possible that the ride layout in Disneyland is going to be largely identical to that of WDW? I hope not. I hope they do make some differences, mostly in scenes, if nothing else.

I’m 99.9 % sure It will be a clone

The only difference will be the queue, expect everything else to be the same,

Not pizza related but demolition starts this week on the rehearsal hall and related backstage structures. You know, for the construction of MMRR. Yay!

Just curious, but can you provide some images of the demolition?

I read a while back when the ride was confirmed that they plan on redoing the backdrop all the way around Toontown. Which would make sense as I’d imagine they would want to incorporate a new design that can block out the mountains of Batuu.

Regardless, they should try to use a kind of paint that will not become so faded so easily in the California weather. Can a more muted shade of green work, as opposed to a bright, cartoonish shade of green?

People on Disney chat groups are always so concerned about the faded paint in Toon Town. I've never even noticed.

Which is why I was hoping they will do something about it so that they will stop talking about it.

You want to lose the cartoonish green in Cartoon Cartown?

I want to lose the complaining from people about how faded the colors get.

We should probably lose the mission breakout colors in favor of the muted tower look then too

I don't believe anyone has complained about the colors fading. I wouldn't be surprised if they did, though.

Might have to revert it back just in case

My color's faded since I stopped tanning.

Unfortunately, no.

I wasn’t able to snap a pic but there is an unobstructed view of the demolition on Harbor Blvd, north of Disneyland.

Ah - it’s been a nice 9 months or so since we’ve seen any construction from this vantage point. Thanks!
