There was also info that the whistle from Steamboat Willie will be used in the train and that Imagineering used special paint that works in white and black light.

Like, the actual whistle they used when recording Steamboat Willie?

That's what they said.

Is there going to be an animatronic Goofy at the front driving the train? Or is that purely for concept art’s sake.

Is the whistle an actual part of the train or just is the sound they used for the attraction? Either is cool, but seeing the whistle actually there would be really incredible.

A bit risky having such an important prop put in a ride in Orlando.

You know our maintenance track record

Sound I believe

I don't believe its the actual whistle just the sound from it because they used the whistle to record it.

New Details About the Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway Pre-Show, Sounds Effects, and More

probably because it won't look like that.

It’s a shame that it won’t. Gala Premiere is genuinely one of the best and most underrated Mickey Cartoons. The one thing I’ve been hoping for since the 2015 “leak” of MMRR was that there would be a reference to the cartoon. Even a projection at night would be nice.

Random thought but I’m wondering if Disney will bring out the in-ride look of Mickey and Minnie for meet and greets to accompany the attraction.

Gah, I hope not. When the new Mickey cartoons premiered years ago, I liked the style for the show itself. Mickey has had multiple styles in use for decades.

But compared to the Fred Moore Mouse from “Fantasia,” the “Ren-n-Stimpy” look is ugly—despite being based closely on Mickey’s “Plane Crazy” days. Remember, there’s a reason Walt kept redefining and improving Mickey, and mostly stopped with the “Fantasia” Mouse.

I can't fathom May. Late summer is still possible. Certainly for soft opens.

Prepare yourself now.

lol. I'm just trying to be dramatic. Like all the other nutballs on here that veruca salt everything (I want it NOW)...

I wish it was going to be open because I'm really interested in the tech they're using on it. Plus I wasn't a big fan of GMR (gasp).
We'll be heading back down there at the end of 2019 though, so we'll see it then anyway. Just looking for something new to do besides slinky dog and the saucers.

Potter Coaster should be open.

we're not doing uni this time.. we have a 3 month old (she'll be 8 months then). maybe the christmas 2019 trip.

 

[Marc Davis Fan]

I'm most curious about the window of time between the MMRR and SWGE openings...

Presumably that window will include late-October and early-November?

You’ll have that Cars show thing. That’s about it.
