Kinda surprised we haven’t heard anything about the song. Or really anything about the ride besides the detailed show scene breakdown 2 years ago. Guess they were under an NDA, lots of people saw the preshow.

It's also turned us into a world of American Idol judges of the belief that we sit in judgement and critique of nearly every meal, service, or entertainment placed before us.
They are definitely trying to keep this one secretive. Employees are not allowed to bring guests to this preview at all unlike the Pandora or Toy Story One. Those lands hadn’t been released anywhere else in the world first but guests were still allowed inside with cast members.

It's so funny that you say that because outside of this site I feel like I've heard next to no buzz for this ride. And even here it's been less than I'd expect, though I think that's mainly because the lid has been kept so tight on the ride that we don't have much to discuss.
Or is it less that the buzz for this is too high and more that the buzz for Rise has been so high that they worry the reception for Railway will pale in comparison?

Oh, I absolutely agree that seeing a thing in person - the detail, the scale, the sounds and scents bring an experience to us - far in excess of what viewing a video gives us.
What I'm talking about is going into a ride for that first time and not knowing what scenes come up in what order, or in some cases how the ride mechanism might even work.
I haven't watched full videos of RotR for instance because I don't want to know how the movie goes before I ride.
Same goes for FoP. Though I know FoP has less of a plot if you will, I don't want to know the whole flight sequence ahead of time and I've even avoided viewing the transition screen at the start of the ride.
I remember the first time I rode ToT and had no idea that the elevator car was going to move forward down the hall... That shocked me!
Yes, seeing things you missed the first time around is great too - but that's a plus as well, as it makes me want to ride the ride again.
Every blogger, vlogger, cogga and mogga ran the story about a new sign. Every fan site carried it. That’s got to be at “new bench“ level of tedium but they advertised it.

Ah . . . I guess my blogger, vlogger, and clogger filters are working, then.
I didn't catch that, but if that's going down then that's good point.

5th gate? Just build a new resort Bob.
Disney put put a press release, a blog post, AND a video. What do you expect them to do, NOT post about every single press release that Disney releases?
There were multiple articles on the most widely read Disney World news site about the just the planters in the pathway to the left of the castle when they did they widening project last fall. Luckily that pathway lived up to the hype! It is indeed significantly wider!

Very impressed with how the loading area looked!
We're not that critical.
BTW, the cast member in the video who said "most unique" should be fired.

The capacity of this looks quite large. Pooh's Hunny Hunt in Tokyo has a high capacity with 3 independent vehicles dispatching at once with two rows of three. This essentially has the same amount of rows dispatching with 6 total rows dispatching at once, however, instead of being rows of 3 it is rows of 4.
If the dispatch rate is close to PHH it will have a respectable capacity, a first for an E-Ticket for the modern Imagineers.
That is the next vehicle coming up immediately behind it.
Having a train instantly replace the departing train is a sign of a high dispatch which will allow it to have the high capacity mentioned above.

Correction: There are apparently 4 cars, not 3, with 8 people in each.

Does the exit take place at a different station? To show off the fact that you are “leaving” the short. My excitement levels are at an all time high after seeing the cool looking load.

Yes. Unload is separate from Load. Handicap has a separate unload entirely. Think TSMM.
Unofficial blueprint but useful for demonstrating this nonetheless.
