News Tron coaster coming to the Magic Kingdom

They have a tape measure.

In inches or metric though?

I still cant Believe, the. Train will fit through that little opening’ time will tell!

I'll be honest, going in the monorail through the contemporary still surprises me about how narrow the opening is

Yeah but people cannot stick their hands out and touch anything on the monorail. The WDRR will have to adjust for "moron distance".

The railroad already had a clearance envelope like every ride.

They are cutting the “fins” off the side of the old arcade to widen the path. The back one is gone.

Too bad they won't cut the whole building off and build something smaller and more fitting to SM.

So, I'm assuming Speedway's theming is staying the same for a little while longer. It's odd though, it's 90's colors stick out like a sore thumb with all of the other new stuff added in the land, aesthetic wise.

 

[IMDREW]

It might still work as a breezeway

My compliments! The Bioreconstruct photos are always top notch.

 

[Stupido]

My completist heart is happy, it was bothering me so much seeing that tiny bit unfinished for so long.

I really wish they'd overhaul the whole gift shop/former arcade building...looks like we're just getting a few minor changes and it will still stand out badly against the other buildings

Looks like they're also removing the sets of doors (red arrow) and side windows (blue arrow) with permanent walls. If they do, this prevents guests from exiting SM onto the pathway going towards Tron, causing a bottleneck (as if it wasn't already going to be one once Tron opens..)

Today from bioreconstruct:

Nope I'm getting Dollywood ads.

I’m going in may! I’m so excited.

going to Dollywood in May? So are we.

I know Christmas is many months away, but I heard Dollywood is beautiful to visit during the Holiday Season. Not only because of how pretty the place looks at night, but they have an indoor section for Rudolph the Red-nosed Reindeer where you can meet him alongside Clarice, Yukon, and Bumble. Just a suggestion for a future visit around that season.

Is that Goofy's hollar I hear in that video?

Food and Flower is looking pretty good too, I think I'll visit next month it should all be in bloom

I'm also not convinced that narrow pathway is going to handle the foot traffic going to and from an E-ticket.

Thanks for the info! We do have a trip planned for November, to experience the Christmas season in Dollywood. We actually got season passes to be able to experience the four major festivals/seasons, similar to what we did in 2019 at WDW. The DreamMore resort is so much more reasonably priced than Disney hotels.
