There’s a set pattern of how the cars move through the ride and reorder themselves.

The four ride paths are the same every time. If you start in car 2 you always follow the same pattern and end as car 1.
Oh I realize this was said already lol

The one at studios is way too short…
Replaced a 20 minute ride with about an 8 minute one

Well, all of the speculation came from DSNY newscast where he saw that the permit for the DL version had 16 show scenes and apparently the DHS one has 13. Now those scenes could be part of the queue like the concept are shown above, or maybe they are playing this one closer to the vest and will be revealed when the ride opens up.
We do know that the buildings are shaped quite differently, so we should expect some differences if not just the layout of the ride.

From what I've heard last year, the shape and layout of the building created an opportunity of 1 new scene to be added between the dance studio and boiler room. Also VFX, animators and engineers working on the project have made statements in interviews on small podcasts that the ride will be a little different.
Not expecting much, but there will be changes, and I expect at the very least that the Easter eggs may be different. For an example "The Great Moving Ride" reference probably won't be there.
Select media were given a tour of Runaway Railway after D23 - some information below from Attractions Magazine. The concept art mentioned in the piece is the first photo in post #4,304.
"As for Runaway Railway, it looks great. We were able to walk through the queue and walk the full ride path. The queue is completely different from the attraction at Disney’s Hollywood Studios. Although we weren’t allowed to take any photos or videos, It looked very much like the concept art below. It’s a museum of past Mickey shorts, shows, and movies, separated by the decades. I can’t give details, but there are some cool illusions and Easter eggs to look for.
The ride wasn’t fully programmed yet, but they walked us through the full ride and ran all the scenes. It’s 95 percent the same as in Orlando. Although the changes in the queue were done on purpose, the changes to the ride were done out of necessity of the space. All the scenes are there, but a couple are rearranged, and some extended a bit."

I'm really rooting for a reimagined tornado scene, or otherwise really shortened so it's not such an extended blackout as it is in the DHS version.Select media were given a tour of Runaway Railway after D23 - some information below from Attractions Magazine.

As I said above, it was from a vlogger reading a permit.
It will still be interesting to see the layout differences though.
It could still be that the new queue and holding room = "new scenes"
And altered scenes = "new scenes"
in the mind of some.
We already knew there had to be some alterations given that the DL building is narrower than DHS's.

So, the queue will essentially be about the devolution of Mickey Mouse?

This. Scenes are not themselves a legal category and they can be counted in a variety of ways. Queue areas are defined as scenes in show set drawings. What a rider might consider one scene could be counted as multiple scenes because of how it is broken down. The same thing could be counted different ways by different teams.

I’m going with March/ April but January would be better since it would be the 30th anni of Toontown.

Can't wait to see if the new Toontown grassy hill can surpass it's predecessor, Chip & Dale's Treehouse, in excitement.
