😎Great forethought to get all the stations while still intact. Surprised that “Guests plunge 52..” sign hasn’t been taken yet🤣Leave it to you to stalk that poor froggy just telling his tale (that POV was just cool) I’m confused why Fantasyland station isn’t utilized for it seems to be just a shell but they probably don’t want to pay to AC it🤷🏻♀ Look forward to what AK Font you chose. Thx 4💜
Great filming. I enjoyed the completeness of walking around in the boarding stations in addition to the ride itself. I think it would have been VERY COOL if they would have engineered Walt Disney’s voice as the train conductor. We know that Walt had a special love of trains, and that he would have loved to give a tour himself to his guests.
I worked in Frontierland at TSI and Bears and have never been on that path next to Splash Mountain! I mean, I did my training INSIDE the mountain and have never seen this path! How do you access it? Sadly, we won’t be back before they close Splash but I hope that pathway stays so I can venture through it!
I know I’ve commented this before…but so glad it is back and very excited to take the grand circle tour next week 😊 I enjoy that they brought “The Music Man” music onto Main Street USA (and the train station) along with other tunes from appropriate era musicals. OH WOW! the happy-chills I felt at hearing the “conductor” narration 🚂 I hope they keep the final scene of Spalsh Mountain in place until further along in the retheming for the sake of the train (but expecting to see those windows covered over next week). Opinion: with an update of song (maybe to Dig A Little Deeper) they could keep the river boat scene 🙃
BRIEF BLOG 7/20/2023: AT THE RISK OF SOUNDING LIKE A DOOMSAYER, WDW IS IN FINANCIAL & IDEA TROUBLE IN MY VIEW. WDW PARK ATTENDANCE IS VERY LOW & PRICES ARE HIGHER! WDW MGMT HAS STILL NOT UPGRADED TO NEW MARK 4 MONORAILS MADE BY BOMBARDIER & THAT TASK IS WAY OVERDUE. THE RIDES ARE THE SAME & ARE GETTING DULL! IT’S THE SAME OLD STUFF ALL THE TIME & I’VE READ A LOT OF CUSTOMERS ARE LOSING INTEREST UNTIL A 5TH PARK IS ADDED & PRICES ARE LOWERED. FRANKLY WDW’S ONCE DISNEY MAGIC HAS FADED FOR NOW. IT’S STILL A MAGICAL PLACE BUT IT’S STALE & NEEDS A NEW 5TH PARK OR SOMETHING TO CAPTURE THE PUBLIC’S IMAGINATION. RIGHT NOW NOTHING IS GOING ON! WDW NEEDS TO KEEP UP W/FICKLE CUSTOMERS WHO WANT A BETTER PARK EXPERIENCE W/MINIMAL COST. THE FOOD IN THE PARKS ALSO NEEDS IMPROVEMENT & A LOT OF THEIR CLASSIC FANCY RESTAURANTS ARE OVERPRICED. C’MON WDW MGMT GET YOUR ACT TOGETHER & MAKE A NEW PARK & GET THAT NEW MONORAIL UP & RUNNING. UNTIL THESE UPGRADES & NEW RIDES ARE PUT IN PLACE, I WON’T BE COMING BACK.
I went in this ride for my birthday with my family and my aunt. I was terrified at first but I went on it and it’s now my favorite ride in the park! Then at night, my dad and I snagged a ride during the firework show (which b the way is about the best time to go on it) and as soon as we came out of the first tunnel… fssht.. BOOM!!! It was amazing!
