I could definitely see that. Can they reopen without the Main Street station though?

No. Because of the placement of walls, it wouldn't be able to operate through that area with guests safely. The building refurb will have to wrap before it can open

On the Mattercam this morning I saw some scrim being taken down!

Yay! I was sad it was closed during my last visit but as a bonus I got in way more fantasyland rides since there was no midnight train to catch.
I’m hoping to get out there during the Christmas season to enjoy the holiday entertainment and say my goodbyes to red car trolley

Scaffolds aren't coming down yet, they just rolled up scrim because of a high wind advisory. You'll notice the roofs aren't done.

I assume they will be next week for the reopening.

They will be done by then. All they still need to do is roofs and remove scaffolds

Any shingling left to be done can be done in a single afternoon, ie it's pretty much done at this point.

Idk why some people are saying they will reopen without the station completed. They can't just operate with Toontown and the Tomorrowland station. They could operate without the New Orleans station tho.

I think what people meant was that the Main St station can reopen without it being 100 % completed, ie if its just the roofing that is needing to be completed they can reopen the station.
With that said, based on live streams I saw today they are finishing up the roofing now, should be done today or tomorrow I would guess. So a reopening of a completed Main St station with the trains operational next week is almost 100% guaranteed in my opinion.

The railroad work is being done in stages, right? Any idea when it’ll go down again for additional repairs?
I really am glad the railroad and Mansion are getting all this attention. Can’t wait for it all to be complete, though.

Just a guess, but same time next year.

Won't the 70th be happening by then? If I had to make a guess I'd say it closes again in January like IASW

It would be deep into the 70th by then, so don't see any reason why it can't. Also there will still be refurbs and such during the 70th, such as the normal switch overs of HM and IASW for their holiday overlays.
Also January doesn't make much sense, as if that was the case why not just keep it closed and finish most if not all of it and just open up in spring for the 70th. But I suppose anything is possible.

Late December is the single busiest period of the year, I can see why they'd want as much open as possible.
