News Tron coaster coming to the Magic Kingdom

[J4546]

What circuit area?

Circus

 

[J4546]

I’m not sure that path is still going to exist. I think there’s only the one way to Tron. So you’d have to go back to Tomorrowland and up past the Speedway.

That'd be dumb if there was no path between tron and circuis imo. I'm hoping it goes under bridge

It would be nice if they kept that shortcut open...MK is big enough without forcing people to constantly double-back.

That corner by teacups can be very congested

An insider said long ago it's staying.

If anything, it should stay as an emergency exit.

It will exist.

Was the walking path inside the train track before? I’m assuming it will be similar to before

... Inside the train track? I should think the pedestrian path would neither cross the track nor enter the train tunnel. If the most recent artwork still holds true, I would imagine it first passes under the smaller flyover near the beginning of the currently poured path and then exits toward Storybook Circus via the same flyover the train tunnel passes under, but the tunnel is a completely separate structure. The more direct path goes straight to Tomorrowland Light & Power.

Nah, new skill, walk the tracks and listen for the whistle/rumble and jump when it comes around the bend. $149. Closed toe shoes required

Yes, inside...

To be as clear as possible, this looks like what will most reasonably happen if the art is accurate, with the added paths in pink:

Very rough as I didn't feel like hopping on Photoshop, and the path will likely be a bit more organic, probably curving above the last canopy support I have it passing under instead of below.

I thought the ramp that goes to the mystery building was going to continue down to Storybook Circus, but it doesn't appear that will be the case.

The mystery building is lockers for the attraction. They will only want people actually going to TRON routing up the ramp, not extra folks trying to cut through.

Guess I am a little behind the news, didn't realize that we had an answer to what that building is.

I mentioned this last Monday but someone probably said so even earlier. I asked someone last weekend and was told it wasn’t meant to be a secret.

Yep. Actual canopy installation begins today. Oh and that new building is a locker building, apparently.

Where are lockers in Shanghai?
